        Was wondering if someone can help with sizing issues. I should start by saying that I have fairly wide feet.
        Generally I wear a 42 in european size (equivalent to 8.5/9 US).
        I recently bought a pair of Viberg Boots in size 8 in the 110 last that fit well.
        I am planning to buy a pair of Alden and decided to go for a model in the Barrie last.
        Was thinking of taking a size 8.5D.
        Anyone has any similar expirience? or advice?

          D will not be wide enough, go E

            I have fairly wide feet and D in Barrie last is perfect for me. YMMV though. The D in Trubalance last is actually a bit too wide for me. It's a sloppy last shape for my foot type. Barrie is my preferred last. In Grant last, I wear an E and it works pretty well for me.

              OK, let me elaborate.  I have wide feet.  When I used to wear Alden, I always had to go at E whatever the last.

                      Ok that's the trubalance last, its Alden's biggest and widest.  For reference I wear a 10D in trubalance and am a 10.5D/E on a brannock device

                                        Like these a lot, is this cordovan leather or calf?

                                          Looking that the way how it creases, I think it is cordovan.
