I don't like the nubuck leather of my Tetburys at all - drives me crazy how it shows any small little scuff or scratch. I would not recommend to anyone. The suede version however is perfect.

If you've tried them on, then you're the best judge of fit.Originally Posted by TRINI
You are right, but there is still a difference between wearing them 10 min in a shop and wearing them during the entire day. Could also be interesting for other people who want to order them online and who don't want to rely solely on a single statement.

FWIW, I think Tetbury fits 0.5 size big.

Umm... no. Oops. Mine are Dainite. Is the double leather a special order or something?Originally Posted by bleachboy
Very, very special ("store MTO"), but the colour is even more special. Ask Trini for more information.

Now, I'm officially a Tetbury owner. Will report how they develop.

If I understand correctly, that's also my experience. I have a whole slew of C&J shoes, all of which fit in size 8. Except my two pairs of Tetburys, which are 8.5. Strange, since they are on the same last as some of my other shoes.

Even stranger since I meant the opposite. I recommend to size down 1/2 for Tetburys

Just checked my available data. Here are the average nominal allowences (the difference between the max. feet length and the nominal last length):
- Any 348 last by Crockett & Jones:~ 1.3 sizes
- Any last by Crockett & Jones: ~ 1.9 sizes
- Any last with a UK size: ~ 2.0 sizes

I must have freakish feet. Perhaps the extended upper latches on to my ankle in a way that makes the bigger size fit better. I would expect that, if this were the explanation, there would be fit problems below (slipping heel etc.) which there aren't.
