Chapmans in Black CXL, i emailed them asking sizing advice and they said same as donkey punchers, did 9D as they dont have E in this last, the length is perfect but its pretty tight across the top, not unbearable but not perfect like the donkey punchers, hoping the pressure at the end of the tongue before the toe eases up a bit, they are beautiful though thats forsure. Can send pics of other angles if anyone wants

@Ikeaparty hose look great man! What’s your brannock if you know it. I always appreciate some E widths when possible too.

[Ikeaparty]

@ZackB thanks man! I actually don't know my brannock! I just know that 9E Lofgren fits me perfectly haha, the 9D that they said would fit the same does not but it's getting better each wear!

[ZackB]

@Ikeaparty good to hear man! I think we’re about the same size then. Glad they’re gradually taking shape for you. Hopefully they fit perfectly soon.

[ZackB]

Thanks to my man Brennan @flannel-slut for answering all the questions I had about these. They are as awesome as you said.

Been putting some wear on the Chapman's. Im really loving how comfortable they have been and how quickly they took the shape of my foot.

This worked for me as these were so tight to get on and off that after a year the stitching came undone on the outside of the backstays. I got the stays repaired but then abandoned them until last week decided to soak them in the bath for an hour in luke warm water.
Then I put two pairs of thick socks on and a carrier bag over my feet and squeezed them into the boots. 48 hours later they were dry taking them off only at bedtime. Now they fit really well.

Whilst drying lots of white patches appeared

They were then treated to some Pecards antique leather dressing. Right boot dressed.

Quick brush and they were ready to wear

@Gammaman whoa! Are those natty CXL?

[Gammaman]

@Mizmazzle Yeah they are.

@Gammaman Wow, the colour difference to my six month old pair is massive!
