Yuketen

[bertoni]

Thanks! You really wouldn't regret it Blackheart. For a connoisseur of  leather like yourself you'd appreciate them more than most Got these from The Bureau Belfast by the way.

[Blackheart]

They're beautiful, I've been looking at your pic today and talking myself in to them! 
Does the place you got yours have a website? and to they run true to size?…Thanks b!

Nameness beat me to the link! And yeah this particular model does run TTS. I know that some Yuketen models run big (Maine Guide Boot for ex.) but not these. I tried sizing down a half size but they were too tight. Exchanged for a TTS pair (UK9) and though a bit snug to begin with, they stretched out really quickly. SO comfy now

[Blackheart]

Thanks nameness and bertoni! I'll go for TTS then! I wear a 7UK as I have a few pairs of boots from there.

[bertoni]

Can't wait to see you in yours and hear what you think Smart move Blackheart!

[Blackheart]

Well thanks for the great pic of yours bertoni! That put the wheels in motion! As soon as I pull the trigger I'll
keep you and nameness posted. Thanks for all your help,  post a close up of your boots if possible so I can
drool until mine arrive!

Love the Country Ranger (#2) and think they'd work for your purposes.  Too bad I can never snag them in my size.

[jacoavlu]

run half size small?
I wear 9.5D in Alden trubalance last but could wear a 9 in summer with thinner (or no) socks

[nameness]

I've been told this season's are TTS by the Inventory guys.  I would whatever retailer and ask 'em just in case.

[cowsareforeating]

get #2, crepe sole looks funky with loafers imo.

imo the non boots you can size tts or if you must, size down half. no more than that

[Blackheart]

#2 definitely, the laces and the color will look great with jeans.

Hey Blackheart! Sorry I haven't had time to take any close ups of my Yuks yet. Send you this link in the meantime…it's the one that swayed me

Hey bertoni! No prob, whenever you get the chance to post pics is cool.
I actually found a place very close to me that sells them so I plan to have a look and see how they fit, might be
able to score a pair there! Thanks for the link, if I can't get my size here then I know where to get them from
thanks to you and nameness.

Geo, love the blue and those mocs look really comfy!

[Geo]

they're like slippers Blackheart . . . love them

[Blackheart]

I've been hearing how comfy Yuketens are and eveyones pics are so nice that I have to get a pair.
Yours look so comfy that I bet they feel like you're walking on clouds…

[Geo]

they're real nice to loaf about in - that's for sure, but you need to get the crepe soles for that extra bounce and softness

There might not be a better looking pair of shoes anywhere in the world right now…
That is as good as it gets.
