        Frankly being lazy and not reviewing this thread…is the common consensus to size down one? Or is this too much if there is not a half size option available?

        Ta much and excuse the indolence.

          I sized down one on the blue Oxfords, half a size on the brown'uns… General consensus seems to size down 1/2 size...

            Seul, how would you compare the two half down to 1 down fit wise?

                Half down: put in extra leather inlay soles, wear 'm sockless, def not too big, comfy
                1 down: perfect fit, no inlay soles, sockless

                With sneakers and boots I'm a 9US/ 8UK/ 42€uro, but actually manage a 41.5 as well… Plus OSB uses a different sizingchart where a 8US is a 7.5UK and a 41€UR...

                Anyhow: just downsize 1/2...

                    The 1 down on my behalf was me realising I'm actually a 41.5 €UR… So in hindsight I downsized 1/2 size on me 2nd pair... Just to make things clear...

                          Half size down worked perfect for me. So far I only have the boat shoe and am waiting for trail oxfords and  boots, I went a half down in both of those as well.  George is almost as helpful as Giles when it comes to answering your questions and damn it if his shoes don't live up to the hype.

                                      Does anyone have a decent-looking alternative to leather laces for the oxfords? I forgot how quickly I run through them…
