I will take that one HG,

size:

　　　7 (approximately 25.) 0cm) 7H (approximately 25.) 5cm)

　　　8 (approximately 26.) 0cm) 8H (approximately 26.) 5cm)

　　　9 (approximately 27.) 0cm) 9H (approximately 27.)

They always convert to the US equivelent and rarely/never the UK so its a pain in the ass double converting to get the correct sizing.

Measure your foot to an US size chart and forget all about your UK size!

I have found this http://www.rancourtandcompany.com/media/content/Rancourt_Shoe_Size_and_Fit_Guide-2.pdf size chart accurate.

Using the rancourt method my foot measures 26.5cm from heel to toe making me an 8H or 26.5 so yes the 26.5 would have an allowance for space.

Because i buy work boots they are usually half size bigger than marked size so i would buy an 8 or 26.

This will just confuse matters,

In the UK i take a UK 7.5 or 8 depending. I have found discrepancies in many size charts because people can not make up there dam minds weather a US size is +half on UK or a full size up. So stick to the US size charts.

Width fittings are generally universal.

Have Clarks not got one?

Just make sure it is printed to scale with the credit card sizes.

Let me know how you get on.

They wonder why the UK retail sector is fucked?

Once you have used it it would look quite quaint on the book shelf.

hg- I am watching it now too. Be a good little piece to have around.

Leeds is not a good place for shopping at all unless you like Vivienne westwood or want a new watch.

Harvey Nicks is stuck in the 90s. It's still the same as when it opened in 96.

If you are in Ilkley, I used to live in Baildon, bottom of the hill of Guiseley. Nice part of the world.

Anyway, thread de-rail over!

Havnt been in Leeds for a while last time i was there the "man about town" wore fake tan and havainians,

Sorry for the sweeping generalisation im sure they also wore other flip flop brands too.

If its any help hg my largest foot on the Rancourt chart (the right) measures exactly 263mm

I wear...

UK 7.5-8 (7.5 for me is perfect 8 is very slightly too big. Not everyone makes half sizes)

Japan shoes 26.5

Japan work boots 26

[Double 0 Soul]

Sorry hg just re-read.

Yes that would be right If you measured a US9 you would need a Japan 27 eg-27cm

Then your left with the age old question of size up or down? that just depends on the manufacturer of the boots in question you would get that with most boot makers the world over.

Got a pair of Thorogoods 6" plain toe 10.5EE - they feel good with width, maybe a little long but not bad - but the ankle leather is pretty stiff and causing some discomfort. Should I try a smaller size? Or just give it time to break in the ankle leather?

[misterjuiceman]

I'm looking to buy some Viberg service boots on the 2030 last. I wear a 7.5D or 7E on Trubalance, Barrie and Modified and a 6.5E (UK) for the Crockett and Jones 325 last. Does anyone know how any of those compare?

[Rchrdvn]

I wear a 9D in Red Wing 1907 comfortably.

Should I go for D or E width in Yuketens?

[gastarbeider]

brannock 9.5D

chuck taylors 9

clarks db's 8.5

allen edmonds elgins (5 last) 9D

allen edmonds macniels 9.5D

alden indy 8.5D

redwing GT 9D (while they fit, i probably could have gone down to a 8.5D).

[tigerpac]

Little update - Ended up with a 10EE and they're lovely.

11US  in nike's

11US in Jack Purcells

11US in Vans

10 1/2 in Clarks DB's

101/2 in florsheim imperials

10 in GH Bass dress shoes

what size in the indy? a 9.5 would fit? or a 10?

[Aries]

9.5 should be good.

[PandaDog]

Thanks!

[skeetinmynose]

Not sure why this is in superdenim...but how much toe space does everyone prefer?

[Aries]

Good question.

 

I like a tight fit all round on my boots, including toe space.

[Somar]

Sweet thread!

 

I wear:

9 for converse all-stars

9,5 for adidas originals

 

What would my size be for the Red Wing Beckman 9016 and Wolverine 1000 mile boots?

I'm 10.5 in Converse All-Stars

I'm 11.5 to 12 in Nike Running Shoes

I'm 11 in Red Wing 8196 and 9156

 

So you're gonna be a 9.5 or 10 in the Beckman depending ion your fit preference. Me, I like my shoes to be a bit tighter.
