I've got a pal who is looking for some Maine Guides in size 9.5. Let me know if you have any you may want to unload.

Got a question for you guys. I've got these http://www.yuketen.com/ready-to-wear/maine-guide-ox-db-b-moc
and I'm about to send them for a resole/repair. I can get any vibram or crepe sole from the current lineup. What would ya'll choose?

[Megatron1505]

On those I would stick with the Christy.

[gratefulmelon]

Kinda what I'm thinking too but wanted to look at options. I keep coming back to the Christy though.

[Dion]

Yep, the Christy provides a great contrast to the uppers and looks best.

Black Friday score. The 20% discount helped push me over the edge. I have been lusting over their boots for years.

Navy FO Maine Guide boot

Killer boot bag and key ring.

Fit is spot on. It’s always the most stressful part of ordering online.

At first glance I thought they personalized the boots for me. [emoji23]

Guess I’m asking a bit of a necro here:
Recently tried a maine guide boot on in a 13 E (yuk standard width). The length in the toes gave me a thumbs width but my foot was shifting all over so I sent back and contacted yuketen.

Idk about everyone’s experience but I feel like I’m getting lackluster sizing advice from customer service. They asked me to go measure my foot on a brannock and I reported my size 13c/d.

I didn’t really get advice but rather “yes the shoe didn’t fit you - we can make it in a narrow width but it will not be refundable/returnable.

Any advice from anyone? I’d really love to get into some of the country rangers, ox, and Maine guides but idk if I’m willing to spend the money to have a shoe made that may not fit and I can’t return.

Stitchdown podcast talks with Yuki Matsuda, the designer of Yuketen. Saw him speak at Garbstore in London a few years ago and his passion for craft is infectious. Really cool guy.

@Nik man, these are mighty cool.. always respect an homage that isn't entirely derivative of its inspiration!

@Nik also, your dog made my laugh out loud when I zoomed in for a closer look
