      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. . .

                                My advice again would be get George to make you a US12.5 or as Seul said go with a US12 if he won't. These things stretch a lot. Just my two pennies…

                                  normally i would say don't stress it, but i can see your issue with these because they are made to order.

                                  have faith my freakishly large footed friend & maybe get on the hunt for a retailer with a "Brannock device" as mentioned by nameness & get measured proper like.  once you have that info in toe (hehehehhehe) pass it along to the powers that be & see what is then suggested.

                                  or if you just don't have the time in you schedule, do like the freaks above me said

                                    Ta L, splitting the difference with a 12.5 feels sensible.

                                            it was hard to see them go, but it makes me feel better seeing them get the proper love from Onairda.

                                            they look really great with your jeans Onairda & i'm so glad you are happy with them.

                                            gerorge & his oakstreet bunch are topshelf with their product & with customer service, so when it's time for a resole you can reach out to them & they will take care of you.

                                            enjoy your summer, i'm sure those oakies will keep you treading lightly & sure footed like  🙂
