      Alright, let's get some info up here.  Please let me know if you guys have anything to add/correct/adjust here.

      Good on-line retailers:

      http://www.pediwear.co.uk (standard designs please a few customs)
      https://www.shoehealer.co.uk (standard designs, mto)
      http://www.thebureaubelfast.com (standard designs plus a lot of customs)
      http://www.leathersoulhawaii.com (standard designs please a few customs, mto)
      http://www.herringshoes.co.uk (standard designs)
      http://www.my-wardrobe.com

      All of them help with sizing questions but I've found Shoe Healer to always be correct.

      Their widths are 5 (standard, close to a D) and 6 (e-ish).  Some (IE Stow) only come in a single width (5) unless you go MTO.

      Sizing: My experience has been to go a half size down.  Note the thickest socks I wear are athletic socks.  I'm a US 9.5 (UK 9), I wear the Stow in UK 8.5.  Nice wiggle room in the toes while maintaing a good fit.  The Country Collection were generally sized to be worn with thick socks.

      I don't want to post images but go to those sites and you'll see all of their models.

      The Stow is generally considered The Brogue Boot.  The Malton is basically the same save the shade and the fact that the leather is thicker.

      I do not have experience outside of the Country Collection.

      They'll do pretty much anything with MTOs.  Run about 385 pounds.  Search around and you'll find some very cool stuff.

          Thanks.  Just trying to eliminate the trials & tribulations I had to go through to get things right.  Buying shoes without being able to try them on is a real pain in the ass.

            agree on the sizing - I am UK9 and 8.5 fits nicely

            outwith the country ranges sizing is a little closer so you'd probably go back up to your normal size

              Great info above.  Agree on sizing as well.

              my-wardrobe stock Tricker's as well in the UK.  Not sure where they ship to.

                i think the best option for fitting/advice/accessories is to stick with the 'traditional gentlemens outfitters'

                the other shops don't have the knowledge . . . but do have the on trend stuff - vibrams soles etc

                    True Balance runs half a size large also.

                    Broken down:

                    My true size: 9.5 US
                    My Alden True Balance size: 9 US
                    My Tricker's Stow size: 8.5 UK (9 US)

                    I think we're the same size so that should work for you too.

                          I've been emailing back & forth with Richard from The Shoe Healer (who has been very helpful btw) regarding the sizing of the Stow boot. Brannock devices put me at a US 11C, my only proper dress shoes, a pair of Florsheim Kenmoors, are a US 11D, and my Clarks DBs are a US 10.5. Richard says could wear a 9.5 or 10, fitting 5, depending. Anyone here have advice that might sway me one way or the other?  Thanks!

                              10 UK it is. I think not having anywhere in Chicago to try these on is causing me to waffle even more than usual. Thanks for the advice.

                                          Cheers fellas.  I couldn't be happier.  I just love the colour of them.

                                          I got a really good deal on them.  I'm not affiliated with the seller so would be happy to pass on the details if the forum rules allow it?
