      Riff, agree with Mega above, length is similar but a D is narrow so half size up or 1 width wider.

        thanks.  my pair of SJ's is actually the distressed roughout pair you did with no toebox in a 9D.  What do you recommend for the oxford?

          Stay the same length, just wider, E should give you enough. The thick distressed leather with the 2021 makes it so stiff to begin with but with Black RO they should be a bit more pliable out of the box. 9E.

                            Here are my three pair of White's:
                            Semi Dress in black Horween Chrome Excel with a single leather outsole, Cuban heels.

                            Then two pair of Bounty Hunters, both with Cuban heels.
                            6" medallion toe cap in brown Dress leather with white liners and half soles. All eyes with no hooks.. I am not a fan of hooks.

                            And my newest.. 7" Bounty Hunters, but lace to toe and also full eyes. It makes it take a lot longer to put them on and take them off, but I find it easier to tension and more comfortable. Plus they just look better IMHO. These ones are also black Crome Excel, with black leather lining.

                            They all look really clean still as I take super good care of them. Brushed after every wear, then treed to rest.

                              New cougars are in….the "dark brown" french calf turned out a lot lighter than I envisioned....

                              Whites cougar.
                              6"
                              Turn up last - C641
                              British tan upper
                              Brown french calf vamp and counter
                              tan leather lining (i highly recommend this as it is free and absolutely beautifully done)
                              Pull loops yes
                              single celastic toe
                              Brass eyelets and hooks
                              Roll top
                              Bellows tongue
                              Single midsole with halfslip-natural
                              Vibram 2021 sand
                              No toe cap
                              Close sole trim

                              Just a note for those that have trouble getting their whites on and off: You can actually order a different style of tongue called a "bellows" which for me eliminated all problems. You can see an example of in the far left pair of the topdown pic above.

                                  They look great! How do These run sompared to other boots you have? I'm still contemplating getting those or another pair of Oxfords.

                                    They are a nice pair, the sole works nicely on the c461, nice choices. @Max Power if your Oxfords are D width you'll want to size down a half size. The Oxford last is narrower than any others.

                                      Thank you! It's an E width…so should I go for the same size and width?

                                          @Max Power I'd go same size but stick with a D personally, the last is more generous than the Oxfords and as they are stitch down they will always give in width quickly if snug to begin with.
