[Giles]

In my experience, the Laramie suede it does not seem to mark much.  I trash mine and there are no stains on them ay all, my RW suede Mocs on the other hand are spotted and stained all over…

I have mine here, will pop up a pic when I get a mo...

[jacoavlu]

@Giles:

These certainly appear too.  But my Munsons did not…

Thanks G, that's useful to have that confirmed. I'm a UK 10 for Trickers and Jeffery West, however my RedWings are US 11 & 10.5 for the 875's and Iron Rangers respectively, (roomy but comfy in the 875, snug in the IR's) so I was thinking that a US 10.5 in the Russell Birdshooters would be OK?

Yeah I love 'em too - so much so I want a pair but can't them in the UK.
Russell's loss!!

[Giles]

I've bought 2 pairs from Russell.  Super easy, if exceedingly antiquated ordering and invoicing process…

[alcatraz]

G, from the US?

[Giles]

Yes, phone up they are about 6 hours behind us.  Speak to Patty….

Cheers G

[madmonday]

these folks make a great product.  if you get a chance i would advise you a chance to check them out.

[madmonday]

looks like jacoavlu's pair are lined on the bottom & Giles' pair aren't.  wonder how that impact's comfort?  tracing my feet & doing what seems like twenty or so things to get measured right & get a pair made up.  any suggestions from you Iron Heart crazies?

[kit99bar]

[jacoavlu]

425 I think
