      Man, that RL store at Bicester is a total zoo at the weekends. Worth working through it all though if there are RRL gems to be found.

        nicecrackaction, thanks for the tip, unfortunately mine are probably a bit large for japan. i'll probably just put them on uk ebay on sunday.

        Size 8 UK is what they sell the most, as far as I can tell from their websites, like this one:

            Sorry folks.  We ended up in South Wales, so came back home on the M4 not the M40, so did not go past Bicester….

                i love those.  Im with you on the soles though.  I think something a bit less agressive would suit the boot better.  maybe a Vib 430 or even a 700.  I would probably change the laces as well, as that contrast seems off to me for some reason.

                  Thing is I cant look at a chunky sole on a bloke without thinking hardcore bear - plus I have this belief "Less is More".

                          I suspect the 2 terms are interchangeable.  I know of no difference.

                                    lovely! Still think they are better looking than the comparatively clumsy Tricker's Stowe.

                                            To me, chelsea boots have elastic on the side. Jodhpurs have no elastic, but do have a strap that holds the tongue tight. It looks like the two terms have become interchangeable, but, for what it's worth, most discussions you see on the net still maintain the distinction.
