Yuketen

[jacoavlu]

The two pair I've had (blucher and Maine guide boot) I would say were half size large vs casual US sizes

In other words sized similar to my Alden Indy boots

My Wool Hunt boots run TTS.

almost forgot, came across this useful link today:

http://www.blackbirdballard.com/Yuketen_Shoes_Mens.html

they are all marked down a bit, sizes are limited, but i mean they always are on things that are wanted

[lowk]

How does yuketen sizing compare to osb?

@gbougard:

Thanks for the speedy reply, Lando
With socks on, would they still be TTS?
I usually wear 10.5-11.
Thanks

Socks or no socks, mine are all fitting TTS… (4 Pairs Now)

As for comparing them to OSB. IMO, OSB run about a half size larger. That or the leather stretches more. Yuketen Leathers all feel like they will last MUCH longer than OSB...

[madmonday]

Maine Guides are BEASTS

nothing else to say

I 2nd Lando - OSB runs about 1/2 size larger - my feet measure just a little under 28.0cm, translating to 10.0 US in OSB and 10.5 in Yuketen - Cheers

OK, so I guess an 11-11.5 might be the right thing for me
thanks

Hey all. Just got these last week for a seriously good deal. Not sure about them yet. Have 30 days to decide, but would love a little input. I would most likely be wearing them with chinos, slimmer jeans, cuffed jeans, etc. Prob not stacks like they are in these photos. Thoughts?

Black Johnson Oxford…

^hard to tell imo…

from these pics id say, that they arent my cup of tea at all, but combined with other things these could do the trick though!
but like youve said, i wouldnt rock stacks on those...some cuffed chinos (free ankle) or things like that...

[hectic]

They need a contrasting sole IMO, but I am sure you can rock them.

[barun]

I'm digging those.  I have a similar pair of black brogues that I only wear with my really slim jeans.  But, with really slim jeans they actually look really good stacked.  They don't get worn that often but there will be a day that they are called for and you will kick yourself if you get rid of them and that day comes…

to clarify a little bit though, they don't really jive with the jeans you have on in the pic, need a slimmer leg

[barun]

anybody know if these are available with a different sole or if a different sole can be thrown on them?

Those would look better once they've got a bit of wear on them. For some reason, though, these particular shoes coupled with the slim fit jeans are emphasizing the length of your feet. I've never liked that look. (Definitely more noticeable head-on. They actually look alright from the side.)

[Giles]

Lando, not rocking my boat - which is probably a good reason to like them…...

[Geo]

They look cool with vintage wear - the short toe cap harks back to 40s

[nameness]

Dunno Lando, kinda flat.  Maybe post pics with something you'd wear them with.  Seems like they'd weigh down chinos…

Same here…

Thanks for all the comments folks. I have decided to return them. They are not wowing me in any way so they must go back. That and I could use the money. Oh well…
