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 :-\

good look & the color is very muted.

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 -

Lando!
We do resole! When it's time to resole them, send them back to us and we'll take care of you. The fact that your shoes can be 'factory' resoled is definitely one of the perks of buying Oak Streets. In the years to come, whenever your shoes need this service we will gladly care for them, and send them back to you good as new.George Vlagos

Not sure why this couldn't be answered publicly, but here is the answer I received from Tony Pace at OSB for those of you who are interested…
"Thanks for the email - we offer a complete refurbishment program for $92. The program consists of new soles, new insoles, new laces, re-lasting the shoe, etc. - basically everything necessary to get the shoes looking as good as new."
