not sure why you want a lining  especially for a summer shoe - but let me tell you that these are awesome the way they are designed and i havn´t though one second about the (missing) lining so far and sure wont..

[Giles]

+1 and I had been wondering how these were such comfy boots, I think part of the reason is the lack of lining, they do breathe extremely well and my feet just do not get hot in them….

Thank you for your answer George! I am very excited to know that I can send them back to you guys to do it right! Cheers

@oakstbootmakers:

In the years to come, whenever your shoes need this service we will gladly care for them, and send them back to you good as new.

Boom - how cool is this right here?.. IH mentality… 

[SimonQ.]

not sure how long the soles last but anyway - iam wearing them so much that i definitely need resoling in some months ^^

great shoes! (i asked that before: how about some shell? ;)))

[madmonday]

I was impressed when I read Oak Street Bootmakers do resoles as well, great customer service & product.  Can't wait to see what else they have coming down the pike.

Thanks for answering my question! Obviously doesn't apply here but the reasons for lining moccasins [don't know about boots] because originally most people wear it without socks so for comfit it cover the seams, adds padding and draws sweat away from feet.

I really want to buy one of these in a couple of weeks, however they do not accept paypal unfortunately, anyone can do a proxy for me?

[Seul]

Well - what credit card do you use your PP acct with?.. Ask George whether he/ OSB accepts that'un perhaps?..

[Giles]

I will if you like…........

[eseanyang]

My paypal is linked with bank not credit card. Giles if you could that would be awesome, im getting money in a couple of weeks, so il message you then if you are still willing. Thanks

[Giles]

Of course…..

I´am still very pleased with the trail oxford, but I have to revise my informations on sizing. They do run a little large, I agree, but in my opinion its less than a barrie or trubalance. It was a bit too less for me so now I switched to a 11 (tts) and this is just perfect.

So if your not sure I suggest getting both (if possible and anywhere in stock..)

Warning for everybody who thinks about the beefroll pennys. This trick doesn´t work on the pennys. Taking them tts made them way too big and the heel was slipping like hell.. so I think you have to take those a half a size down.

Simon.

interesting sizing info Simon, and thanks for the heads up.

Once i start wearing my Navy Vibram Sole Camp Boot I'll let you all know what I think about the sizing as well.  SO far these do feel a bit larger than other shoes I have in the same size, but not so much that I would have sized down an entire half size.  However, that opinion may change once I start wearing these & they break-in a bit.

Will keep you all posted

So using them to work in - bad idea or basically best idea?.. I hope to get mine by the end of the month…

[LandoCal126 0]

Just wear them! Wear them wherever/ whenever. I am most definitely going to grab a Brown Trail Oxford in addition to my Navy pair right before Fall. Mmmmmm, I love these things!!!

Guys,
Just wanted to pop in again.  I've been blown away by the support of everyone here.  We've had quite of few members, and a lot of guys who says they are 'lurkers' place orders.  The emails that have been coming in from you guys saying how happy you are with your shoes, or emailing with questions, has been incredible.

Thank you so much for the support guys!  We'll keep working hard, making the best shoes for you!
