I’d say either the same size as Rangers or maybe a half size down. If a pair of Rangers is roomy for you, I’d definitely go a half size down.
It’s funny bc as a size 12 or 13, I don’t even think about half sizes. What a nice concept! Why there’s no 12.5 is beyond me.

I know they were delayed this time because of pandemic/supply chain issues, so really I have no idea. That said, someone on Styleforum did say that emailing RDT directly is a good option — they apparently gave a lot of helpful info and had no language barrier issues. So that’s a big plus, as there’s not a lot of info on the company out there, or at least not that I’ve found.

You've been a fount of knowledge on the topic, Pop! Thanks!
Keep us posted on progress, they're absolutely lovely.

Thank you sir! And absolutely, will do!

Damn those are GORGEOUS, @popvulture
Thanks for kicking off this thread and showing off the new boots! I saw the S&S notice and … damn they're good. -
@henry_david yeah man they’re some good shit. You wear a 14? I bet these would fit you if so. Def might be worth a try-on next time they’re in stock over there. Damn happy I don’t have regular access to that store! Haha
-
Yeah I take a 14.5 but usually settle for a 14 (shoes that run large) or a 15 (shoes that run small).

@popvulture how are you liking those RDTs? How’s the build quality and comfort now that you’ve had them a little bit? They have a couple models that have been piquing my interest. The Roots 8.5 combat boot looks pretty sick!

@Mizmazzle they're great! I have too many boots so it's not like they've gotten a real significant amount of wear, but it's been enough to say that they're holding up just fine. I'm pretty sure the leather on mine is just CXL, but I think it might be a brown hand-finished over the top with black or something, because they're starting to show some cool wear in the areas where the leather naturally slouches.
The only thing I kinda didn't like is that I got some kinda ugly looking scuffs on one of the toes, I think maybe from rubbing the brake pedal in my car. I put some Pecard's black dressing on that particular area though and it blended in great.
Watch out for the sizing, definitely make sure to ask Standard and Strange (assuming you're buying from them?) how the particular model you're interested in runs. Like I said before, I normally wear a 13 or 14 and I feel like I almost could've gotten away with an 11 in the Casper. 12 is fine though, nice n' roomy.

Man, S&S just put up a huge selection of RDTs for preorder. Sucks it's such a far-off delivery — late 2024. That said, I'm really tempted by those navy Coupens. I have til Friday to decide
-
Just ordered a pair of Gleaners
pretty excited
classic style, will look awesome with sbg
any experience out there?
-
boom
, they arrived!
what awesome boots , wow
even much better than expected!
they fit like a glove , and the quality is definitely outstanding.
the calf leather is thick , but I don’t think I need long to break them in.
If you have slim 🦶 feet , grab them!!
special thanks to Jamie @EastWest , as always a perfect job with sizing!
here some impressions…
-
Man those look great! Love the heels.
-
@Daniel-San damn, son!!! Those are dead sexy!!! I foresee lots of love coming your way!
