     How does the Rui last compare to the Hiro? I have the Phillip II MTO in a 9.5UK on the Hiro last and it is fine, maybe a tiny bit tight. I'm normally a 10.5D for AE shoes. You think the 9.5UK Rui on these boots will be a good fit given my sizes? I've never owned a boot, or cordovan, before...

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    This may be early as most of us haven't had these shoes long enough yet to need it...but in the future when they will need to be resoled and maybe even recrafted, does Meermin offer this service themselves? Or were you all just going to a respected cobbler that you may already be frequenting and...

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    Thanks for all the responses, gents. I'm honestly surprised that so many of you have recommended me to keep as I was almost certain this pair was not up to snuff for second standards. I will admit that aside from the dent, I was going to overlook everything. The dent just has me worried because...

    Gents, I need your opinion on this. I'm pretty sure I already made up my mind but just wanted to see what you all thought. I snagged a pair of factory second Shell Cordovan Burgundy Dalton's during the tent sale and was super excited. I've been pretty busy at work so I didn't get a chance to...

    Thank you chogall & benhour! Makes me feel at ease knowing that the damage shouldn't be too hard to cover. Will definitely work this this weekend.

    Morning gents, Have a quick question... Was in a rush this morning and ended up scuffing my shoes on the concrete step in the garage. My foot was parallel to the step and it got scratched up as I was reaching for the light. I attached some pictures of the damage...hoping that it's not a big...

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    This may be nitpicky, but how come Meermin doesn't move the imprint on the bottom of the sole? After a few wears, all of that gets scratched off and disappears. Or do you all wear shoe taps to prevent this from happening? I'm kind of sad that there is no more imprint on my double monks anymore...

    Gents, Thank you for the replies. That makes me feel much more at ease! I took roundabout ways to walk when I went out to lunch today, afraid to make it worse so I'm happy to know that I won't have to do that anymore.

    **The Official Shoe Care Thread: Tutorials, Photos, etc.**

    Gents, Am I just being paranoid or is this normal for wear on the soles? I'm out here in Boston on a business trip and the floor was somewhat wet with gravel that was unavoidable. As I was relaxing in my chair, I noticed how my soles now looked and am concerned with the deep dents due to the...

    Is it because you got shoe taps? My 277 was for shoes and shipping only, no shoe taps or any other bells & whistles.

    I'm glad you like them! I'm still waiting for mine to be shipped. Got them in brown calf. The one shoe bag is hilarious....I'll have to buy another one or just use some other shoe bags in that case because I do actually bag them after use.

    You're getting a better deal @ 277.50. In the MTO group details that Terror sent out, it was 260.00 euros for SHOES ONLY. So based on normal shipping charges (35 euros), you're getting half off on shipping. I asked Terror about this earlier this week and he let me know that there wasn't...

    The Norwich tends to run narrow, as far as I can tell. I tried them on in my regular size (10.5D) and the SA advised me to go to a 10.5E. It wasn't super uncomfortable but I did notice that it was pretty tight in some areas when wearing my normal size. Still waiting for the 10.5E to arrive at...

    Must've been part of the early batch; I received mine almost two weeks ago . Looks like the shipping charges are way less than normal, making this MTO even sweeter! My RTW double monks cost 35 euros for shipping but this MTO only charged 17 euros!

    Newb question...but why would there be risk of cracking? I thought conditioning and polishing helped the shoes to not crack?
