I have a Dover on 32last. It is straight and rather narrow last. So if you have wide foot, it may not be for you.

Interesting. I have a 32 from some years back that fits perfectly, and I have a fairly wide forefoot. Of course, I now fit the resinated 82E perfectly, and while the new 202E is OK, 202D is even better, to my surprise.

My main question is if the 32 has become wider recently along with some of the other lasts.

Regretfully, I ordered the wrong size in a pair of Mocha suede Shanklins. If anyone is interested in these at half of retail, please feel free to PM me. They are on last E202, size 7.5/8.

I will also consider trades for 8/8.5 and 8.5/9 shoes.

Damn, if only 1/2 size bigger! But then I guess you wouldn't be selling them, haha.

You are correct on that, my friend. Ideally, I can find someone looking to trade. BTW, these are worn twice, so I'm not looking for a brand new pair in trade (and I will consider any make ups!).

Were you able to get that out? Also, are those the same make up as the Galways at Mr. Porter? http://www.mrporter.com/mens/edward_green/galway-cap-toe-grained-leather-boots/633040

My first thread contribution. Bought used, they are well worn but fit like a glove (leather is just so supple & soft). They are made for Holland & Holland on F64, and I believe they are almond cc(?) Looking forward to wearing these all winter :)

@JR Magat just picked up a pair of these from the bay - have not gotten them yet however I always liked the Galway on this last as ,my wardrobe is very casual and at the moment mostly non slim leg openings. Depending on fit the plan is to hopefully have this mixed into my heavy sock winter boot rotation. My pair from the pics seems to have little sole wear yet the uppers have some salt stains and such that I am sure I can work out. Now that you have had these a while(if you still have them) how did you treat this leather? Is it a special leather that has been treated at factory to be more weather friendly? Also did you get a confirm on the exact color and such. Thanks!

Congrats! 64 last is a perfect casual boot, so they should work out perfectly for your wardrobe description. Unforttunately, I ended up selling this particular pair due to fit (F64 had too much volume for me), but for cc grain & utah leather, I personally don't do much maintenance to them - leather conditioner, wipe & brush. I wouldn't say I'm an expert in shoe care, so if anyone else has suggestions, feel free to chime in :)

Thanks I figure will treat salt stains first then move on with some bick 4 - these are marked size 12 in the boot but listing claims US 12...either way I will be ok if US 12 normal socks if UK 12 boot socks - I know C&J markes Barney shoes/boots in US but didn't know about this Holland and Holland thing...I always liked the sole on this boot so pretty excited to get a nice deal on them.
