    Thank you for the kind words. I do appreciate them! Thank you for helping out :-) I appreciate your kind words. I can always include in a restock so long as it is a RTW model. Also, we offer US6/US6.5 in our PreSales and GMTO's. You can always email me for future help too :-)

    No, I stopped selling accessories a while ago. I sold the rights to sell my accessory range as well. They sell Saphir products at www.theshoesnob.com but I no longer control this site. I now only sell JF branded shoe trees and that is it for now Edit: sorry realized I already answered this...

    I am glad that you commented as I need to update that for US sizing, as when I wrote that I was a UK based brand, so was basically saying that it is wider than a standard width (more like an American E, than a D). As per your question, it is hard to answer as I have had some compare against...

    yes, but the world crisis put a major dent on that and probably won't do so now until next year as it will most likely be too late now to get them launched in the time frame that I had wanted to

    MFC last was one that I used when I launched the brand. It was one that my factory had in their stock and allowed me to use. I never liked the fit of it and only intended to use lasts that I created, so after I launched, I quickly developed my own set of chisel last. Once ready, I replaced this...

    We are based in NYC. No trunk shows planned yet. We are pretty good size advice though, as is asking here how things fit compared to others Production takes around 4 months. Sometimes longer depending on the factory. The shoe restock (shoes, monks, loafers) have been ordered in December and...

    Terrible creasing on Meermin Chelsea boots

    Thanks for sharing that to the OP. It is 1000% normal. If it doesn't crease, most likely it is not real leather. Real leather creases, just like our skin does.

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Thank for the support and glad that you like my shoes. I do appreciate it. I am not schilling for them at all. I am simply doing my job as the 'The Shoe Snob'. What you stated is exactly what I am saying, that they should not be compared to shoes twice or three times their price but for $200...

    We all know that Black Friday is around the corner and this is 5 of the busiest days of the year.

    I would stick with the same size, I do not make the boots bigger. The only thing slightly off is the loafers which are cut more tight. But the shoes, definitely stick with the same size
