              I got mine for half the price from 14 oz store in Berlin. Amazing quality and super comfy! Usually wear them without socks but we have +50cm snow here now…

                  Alright, Yuketen experts…  I received my Angler Mocs.  I went TTS and they're a little tight from the ball of my foot to my toes.  They're leather lined but I feel like if they have some stretch in them I'll be ok.  Any experience here?  Thanks.

                    they are fully leather – no synthetic from what i can tell. I wouldn't call them lined. And yes -- they probably will stretch a little bit.

                    no firsthand experience with stretching, but I haven't been wearing mine since my 301s are still less than a month old and i didnt want bleeding on them.

                      they'll give quite a bit on width - the leather is quite supple

                        Thanks.  My experience in getting leather lined shoes to stretch has been hit or miss.  I'll try these on again tonight and see.  I think I must just be SOL when it comes to Yuks.

                          you could probably swap out the insole for a lower profile/slimmer one if you are so inclined too.

                            Yeah, thanks for the idea.  I'm gonna give them the once over when I get home tonight…

                              I'm hoping mine stretch out a bit in too. Love the things but the last does feel a tad slim. Would go with an E next time for sure. Get the feeling there is some stretch in these though. Fingers crossed!

                                I love my Yuketen Hunt Boots.  The leather tongue is buttery soft.

                                  I would love to get a pair of Yuketen mocs.. They are pretty high priced though, is it worth to buy them at retail? Or you guy's usually get them some other way?

                                    lurk around sf and sufu, i got my yuk mocs for 150. also, some random stores carry yuketens, and at the end of each major season there should be clearance – some guy was picking them up at 30 dollars a pop in some store that i dont remember

                                    got my yuk boots for 150 too...

                                    that being said, i would pay retail for my moccassins, and if i found the perfect boot i would pay retail too.

                                      I paid retail and don't regret it at all. Firstly the sizing issues with Yuketen, which vary from model to model mean you're never quite sure how they're gonna fit. Buying from a reputable retailer (I can recommend TheBureauBelfast) allows for error as most accept exchanges. Secondly, the quality is so good you really don't mind having paid what amounts to a shed load of cash for your shoes/boots. You certainly don't feel cheated.

                                          Thinking of getting these… All this talk and all those pics made me want a pair bad...

                                          I'm a UK 8 though but these run a tad bigger?..

                                            I'm a UK 9 - my yuks are 8.5

                                            I have noticed there are variations from other reports but the advice is always TTS to down a half size
