If I take a Uk 9 in red wing Beckmann and moc toes and a Uk 10 in converse, would a Uk 9.5 in Aldens on the Barrie last be too big?

Thanks in advance!

I find them to be super slippery but that's just me. Looks like nice work though.

[tigerpac]

^Agreed.  I love their commando sole for this time of year.

[denimeric]

Everything is better than the smooth leather double lock soles they came with. Dress leather soles wear too fast on me also!

Finally had the time to give my Indy boots a good coat of obenaufs. They still look damn good after 2 years of fairly steady wear.

Are those shell? Asking because I'm not sure about the necessity of waxing shell cordovan.

Nope just calf, and Im not too sure about cordovan care but I think Alden makes supplies for that leather.

[mclaincausey]

Ahh gotcha. I was thinking they look damn good whatever the guidelines for treatment are.

Guys, what's the sizing like on the indys. I am a sz 8 on the barrie, which is a little tight

[seawolf]

Trubalance is wider than Barrie.

@Delfor Suggest to go 8D on Indy since TB is wider than Barrie.

[Delfor]

Balls pulled the trigger on a 8.5d. Definately feels roomier, but maybe  so used my other Barrie's being so tight

Alden 403 chromexel + Moon Brittish wool trousers.

Alden 405 + uniqlo socks + Wallace and Barnes slim trousers

Both of mine were special ordered in E width. I found that 8D fit width wise, but felt so long, so I wold them and got the first pair in a 7.5E on a monday, loved them so much, ordered the second pair that friday.
