What size are you approx Hectic?

[Seul]

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

[madmonday]

sasquatch size, hahahahahaha

couldn't help it.  US 13 if memory serves me correct

[hectic]

Im typically a UK12/US13. But the redwings run large as you know. Still: aaarrrggghhhhh

[madmonday]

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

sasquatch size, hahahaahahahahahahahahaha

[Seul]

monday you're relentless… in making me smile!.. 

So: size 12 in RWs hectic?.. And those run big?.. Then I'd go with 12 in OSB...

[Giles]

Sorry, if you were close to me, I'd suggest you try mine on, but i'm a 10.  G

[hectic]

Thanks all. Sasquatch ponders his shoe future….

Hectic, I'm a 12EE so don't feel bad

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…

[madmonday]

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

[hectic]

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

Cheers Monday

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Not getting much done at work today!

[Seul]

Looking great!.. 

[madmonday]

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

Pretty convinced that I need some Trail Oxford's, but struggling to decide whether I can really justify them, since they do bear a slight resemblance to my Redwing 875's. My impulsive nature means that I will probably just buy them regardless, but it would be useful if I could have some ready made responses to counter my wife's inevitable comments….

Would really like some of their boat shoes too.......and some boots

[oakstbootmakers]

^ Hey tmg!  Let me know if you need any help with sizing - or will counters to your wife's comments 

[tmg]

Thanks for the offer George, have emailed you
