Would be very thankful for any advice.


trickers run very big... usually 1 size down from us, im an 11us = 10uk, since you are 7uk seems like you'll be ok, just fyi i am a true 11 and they run a bit big so i wear thick socks with them...

I have UK 10 Grenson and UK 10 in Mark Mc Nairy New Amsterdam - equivalent to US 11 - I also have alot of highend hightops that are either US 10.5 or US 11 - So I went with UK 9.5 Stows which are perfect as they are ever so slightly smaller size than my Grenson and McNairy but esp former were prob a tad too long.

Id say go with whatever size you have the most of in your wardrobe, that is the smaller size- 2 other issues are probably amount of break-in there will be and the width; I've found the length of the UK9.5 perfect and with a bit of breakin these will be perfect.

However as they are width 5 not width 6 it would probably help in your assessment to know your width- Im sure bryan at lsfootwear dot com will be able to assist.

My gut feel is if you are a UK 7 then get UK 7 unless like me and you knew your existing size had a bit of extra length in it and your feet arent too wide, hence able to get a UK 6.5.

BTW - the natural welt and brass eyelets are so awesome. Ive worn mine 5 days straight!!!!!!! Luckily winter in Australia has well and truly arrived! Good Luck!

Lowndes is on the 348 last, I believe.
I wear 10UK/11US in a different 348 last shoe. It's slightly long but I need the width on the 348.
I wear a 9.5UK in Bourton/Keswicks 4444 last. They're just long enough but plenty wide for me.
YMMV.

I'm an 8 in Barrie and vary from 7-7.5 uk, it really depends dude. I've yet to get a 7 but the 7.5 is slightly roomy, which is fine for boots. Also, tell Brittany I said, "sup?"

'Tis possible, brother. I like the double leather sole, just too slippery for my tastes, can't **** with it. need some form of grip, just prefer vibram or crepe.

I love love the Leather Soul 1001 Burnished on Red Dainite. If I was in US I would have definitely jumped on these. But the Acorn ones from Pediwear are almost just as nice. Free shipping and not having to worry about customs fees swings it.
