I just called yesterday to change my size to 8.5E from 9.5EE. Spoke to Kayla. She told me it is still 6-8 weeks but according to Steven/Stephen, they will go into production early May and should be ready by end of May for shipment. This is from the CEO himself when i had a convo last week.

If you wait until you forget you ordered them, you'll be pleasantly surprised on arrival

Hey Onijo, what size do you wear usually? Did you measure your foot and leave it with dayton? I told them my measurements and I think I'm an 8.

chucks 9.5
Vans 10.5
Sperry 10.5
PS 9.5

I spoke to couple of members here who had the w+h ones and decided to get them in 8.5E. This was the size given to me based on my feet measurements. I realised taking 0.5 - 1 down from the chucks sizing to be pretty accurate. And kayla told me these do stretch alot overtime.

I see you've sized down 2.5 sizes from your brannock measurement.

sigh, I guess I'll be making the call tomorrow to change my size from 9E to 7.5E

Screw the brannock reading. with that reading they sized me to 9.5EE. i rather go with chucks since they are pretty standard and their sizing is the same for both UK and US.

Anyone who sized down more than 1 from their Brannock is going to be sad. Very sad.

^eh, i sized a 10.5 on the brannock device

however, i wear a 9 in desert boots, red wing gt, and wolverine montgomery boots

when i ordered the guy asked me what size i wear and dress shoes and i said either 9 or 9.5 (depending) and he advised to size down a size

he said they fit a full size bigger than the boots i mentioned and suggested an 8 but i told him i would probably put an insole of some sort in and would wear thicker socks in the colder months and he said that would be enought volume to fit an 8.5 which i felt was the correct size based on what i've read in this thread

wish there were more ppl in the thread who can speak on the sizing w/ intelligence

ordered mine w/ topy and asked if they had flat fabric laces as well in case i don't like the leather laces

5-6 week wait now

When I called today, they suggested sizing down 1 from the brannock measurement. They'll be sending me an email for me to send in my measurements though, i'll see what they suggest from that.

EDIT: Crump, we measure the same for the red wings GT, so I guess I'll order an 8.5 as well.
