Oak Street Bootmakers

@Giles:

SExSugar Cane Jungle Pants.  A prezzie from Kiya…...

They don't look anywhere as near slim cut as they do on the site, which in my humble is a very good thing.

Oh aye and mixing up your olive shades, been there, done that

Very pleased with these and thanks for throwing a spare set of laces in with these George, Nicely done.

@Shoreman:

Damn…those look amazing.

@adw24:

Hats off to George on an amazing job!

Woah - thank you so much guys for the kind words!  They definitely turned out rad as hell.  I actually made a few pairs of extra hunt boots in random sizes because I had a little bit of left over leather (i think it's literally only like 4 pairs though).  If anyone is interested I can check sizes tomorrow 

Chamois takes on character - so progress reports will be needed (in Giles time, i think that means he needs about a month before they look like they have a year's worth of wear)

George, I have no idea what you are implying…...

Giles, can you compare how your camp boot fits to the Red Wing Wabasha?

[Giles]

10E in both, both perfect out of the box….

[alcatraz]

Nice

I've never really checked out OSB before, but looking at some of the pics in the thread they do look really nice. Might be in the market next time I need new boots 

Just got to finish trashing my Abingtons, Wolverines and Whites first  :-\

Thanks Giles for the next day delivery:

I went TTS and it is very comfortable, I can see why people say you could size down but Im happy with these. Lovely construction and the green is agreeably muted.

Worth the wait.

[madmonday]

good look & the color is very muted.

@Giles:

looks fab!

[kit99bar]

my TTS is 8E (with my right foot being 8.25E).  My Wabashas in 8E are a tiny bit too tight on my right foot.  Any chance the OSB fits slightly bigger than the Wabasha?

[Giles]

They really do seem the same, but if you are thinking of buying the chromexcel it stretches pretty easily….

[kit99bar]

ty sir!

These look great, love the colour. It's a shame i missed the boat 

[kit99bar]

Just got my Navy Oxfords :).

My sizing advice:
George, owner of OSB, recommends measuring your foot on an official brannock device and getting that size.  I did that and they fit with socks on.  If you want to wear with no socks, then size down 1/2.
Brannock - between 8D and 8E (this may be important as I have slightly wide feet)
Converse Chucks - 8
Red Wings - 8
Clarks Desert Boots - 8
Sperry Boat Shoe - 8
Nike Air Force Ones - 9

Wearing them to work for the first time today.  Feels a bit cramped in the toe area; definitely need to stretch a bit to be more comfortable.  I'm very glad I did not size down on these (from my Brannock measured size).

Looks so good… Now go and abuse them!..
