Thanks for the feedback guys, seems like I'm somewhere between XL and XXL.
Weirdly enough I'm an L in the recent IH tees, but they stretch a good bit.
Now just waiting for one to be released that I really love!

Some of the IH t's do come up big. Im typically a 42 chest in most things, had two xls and one l in a IH t's and one of the xl's was enormous! The best thing you can do is measure your best fitting Gitman shirt and do a comparison to the IH measurements. If you're on the broader side (as i am), then compare it to a work shirt which is a more generous cut.

Is it common practice for chippies in the UK to include guacamole with an order or F&C?

[Megatron1505]

Get those mushy peas down ya lad 

[Megatron1505]

P.S, I hope you have used liberal amounts of salt and vinegar on them.

P.P.S, get over to FnC this year so you can have some REAL fish and chips….Gile's local chippy is surprisingly very good.

[Giles]

Yeah, and if you are the UK, why the feck no phone call?…..

[mclaincausey]

I used so much salt and vinegar I look like I rubbed an Amazonian tribe the wrong way. my first mushy peas, love them.

[mclaincausey]

I'm in America Giles,  I was just asking how things are done there. I do hope to join F&C!

[Megatron1505]

Good on you, we can go to the chippy, then the pub, drink far too much, have an argument about footy which results in a night in the cells and then you will be truly inducted as an Englishman

Incidentally, watching football whilst drinking and eating this stuff.

[Megatron1505]

You are almost English

Question for American folks, who makes the footwear for the retailer Steven Alan? There stuff is made in the USA and I see that they have a relationship with both Alden and Thorogood, does anyone know if it's either of them?

[mclaincausey]

Yeah but I think I'm going to go Mexican tonight…

Is there a large "Safety Rugby" match occurring in the colonies this evening?

[Chris]

I don't think so.  Today is National Baked Alaska Day, which is traditionally a quiet day of rest and introspection.

Well, I unfortunately have had a incident with my favorite moccs that has left me short a casual shoe. Was looking at possibly picking up some birkies, notably the Alabama, but have no idea on sizing, or general experience with the brand. Given that there are a few fans here, looking for any help or relative input

[JCMx800]

Go by EU size, I am a 42.5 in sneaker, 42E in boots (whites boots) and I am a 42 wide width in Birkies
Maybe order a pair and send em back? Birkies are nothing rare and most of the retailers has every size in stock. Or go into a store…

[jdl1279]

Looking at them, pretty sure I would need a 44, which is the same as my Mephistos…wanted to be sure they ran true. Nearest retailer to my knowledge is an hour away in a town I don't get to often. Thanks for the advice

Hi jdl,
like jmc I´m EU 42,5 - 43, UK 9, US 9,5-10.
I rotate two Boston in 42 and 43 in normal width.(There is also a slender width)
They are very comfortable and last a life time, if you don't step to often on the edge of the cork latex footbed.
