      If that happened I'd be very happy as well.

          Hey guys!
          Just wanted to post some sizing advice.  If you want to go sockless, it is best to size down half from your true dress shoe size (just like you would with the Alden Barrie last).  If you plan on wearing normal/thickish tube socks and the like, go with your standard/true size.  Let me know if you have any questions!

                    Having chatted to osb I am looking to size down one - does this dovetail with other owners? ( just being paranoid )

                      Assume you're going sockless?  And this is down from your athletic shoe size?

                            Have you ever been sized on a Brannock device?  Best thing that's happened to me re: shoe ordering.

                                I think general consensus is to size down 1/2 hectic. But even after downsizing 1 on my navy blue Oxfords, they fit excellent…

                                      just thought this might be hurtful & inconsiderate to a certain sasquatch. sooooo, if egos are bruised i'll take it down. . .
