Haha. Well I've only tried on the Semi-Dress and the 8.5D fit me well with thick socks. I got SmokeJumpers in 8.5 and Outdoorsman(lace to toe, more flexibility in the toe box) in 8. I don't think I'm THAT far off. You just never really know until they're on your feet. Also, when youre paying 25-40% of the retail price I think you have room to take risks.

My SD's arrived back from James Taylor and Sons today from their resole.
To be honest, I don't know if I'm happy or not. The quality of the workmanship seems to be very good, but it is definitely not the sole I asked for. I might just live with it though. :-\

if its not what you asked for then its not what you asked for and they should rectify that….i like em though.

Mega, I think they look good. I prefer a block heel but those are fine. Do you not like how aggressive they look or something?

I definitely specified a Vibram composition half sole, or a Vibram mini lug sole, just my taste really. The quality of the workmanship is fine, but it's just not what I wanted.
I have emailed James Taylor and Sons to register my disappointment, especially considering their reputation this is a real elementary error on their part. I have suggested that they should either rework them free of charge, or provide a refund to allow me to get the rework done elsewhere.
What really pisses me off though is that the full lug sole is exactly the sole I sent them with to be replaced, plus I specified exactly what I wanted, spoke to them on the phone, emailed them pictures, and even sent them hard copies of pictures showing the exact profile I wanted to achieve with the soles I requested.
This is turning into a random rant now

The heel wasn't changed Ed, they didn't carry what I wanted so I was planning to have that done separately. Oddly, the heel is the only bit I can't blame them for.
The quality of the workmanship is fine to be honest, they didn't stitch the Vibram on, but you'd be hard pushed to find many Rapid E machine in England.

Nah, James Taylor and sons of Marleybone London. I've never heard a bad report about the Denim Doctor.
