Thx for the link Jesse. Pics look great. Apparently i just missed u the day i was there man

Thanks for all the info chaps, very helpful!
KKT - Amazing boots, especially the MTO!
My feet are a bit narrow, I measure almost 12cm width, and my left foot is substantially larger than my right, measuring 28.5cm heel to toe, whilst my right measures 27cm.
I've went for a 9.5 on the 2030 last, the tate and yoko icy mocha brogue service boot. Hopefully it fits!
Great photos Jesse.
Hi aries, my width is 11cm and my feet are 28,2cm from heel to big toe and I wear a UK Viberg 10.5 in 2030 last !!!

Well… Unless you like very spacious boots and/or wear really thick socks, I'm screwed!!!
That said, I'm from the UK and I've never bought anything above a size 10. The Alden Indy boots I'm wearing right now are a US 9.5 (trubalance last, their biggest), so I don't know what to think!
I should also say I like the feel of tight fitting boots, and I always wear very thin socks (I now live in Australia, no need for thick socks almost ever!).

I wear thick socks. I wear in Alden Indy Boot a US 10.5 E.
So, you are right, your UK Viberg 9.5 can fit you feet

Some real beauties! Wish I had gotten something like your natural CXLs (before the Viberg prices went up) instead of the Oak Street Trench boot that I did…
@KKT:

Thanks you Finn666, there are more pics of my boot if you wanna see more here at my tumblr

waxed for me but sensational boots either way…

Thanks mate.
Just added some venetian cream as they were a bit dry out of the box, now I can leave them for a few months to just accumulate some wear and tear.
Venetian cream is amazing though, so quick and easy, and always brings the shine out regardless of leather (I even use it on my cordovan to similar effect).

Thanks Davito. They're tight, but not at all painful or uncomfortable, and I'm sure will stretch a bit to a perfect fit in a month or so.
The notion of 'fit' for feet is such a strange, chimeric science, so much more subjective than any other garment.
Thinking on my own preference, I believe growing up playing football (soccer), and still playing often, I've just grown accustomed to footwear that needs to be tight to my feet, and it feels strange otherwise! Whilst friends of mine, with the same size feet, like loose boots/shoes, it just feels instinctively "off" to me.

I completely agree with your interpretation of fit. I want to feel the footwear hugging my foot very snugly in all regards and anything besides this drives me crazy. It's probably my most picky fit of any piece of clothing.
