      hi guys,

      just a sizing question please.  i am a uk 8 and from what i understand is that you translate that in us sizing then size down .5 for the trubalance last.  i always thought a uk 8 was a us 9, therefore i would need an 8.5 in the indy.  however, i have looked at quite a few size conversion charts and they all seem to say different things, so now i am doubting what to get.

      can anyone shed any light on this for me please as i would rather not have to return any items due to incorrect sizing.

      many thanks

            Found this interesting read on the "Indy" boots that Harrison Ford made famous:

              So, if Harrison was a fan prior to filming, there may be some Blade Runner Alden we are completely unaware of…...cause what Indiana Jones was filmed, maybe, a year before BR?

                                I really wish they'd bring back the black lady calf version of these because I'm in desperate need of some black (perf) captoe dress boots.

                                      Just threw up a pair of 10.5D Alden LongWings. Special make up for Brooks Brothers "Black Fleece" line, designed by Thom Browne.

                                        Hey Lando,

                                        nice pair - even my size, a pitty that I´am not a fan of black shell.
                                        Would you mind pointing out the difference of these ("black fleece")  compared to the normal black longwings?

                                        Thanks 😉
