could you post pics? and a pic of the outsole?
where did you get them?

I left my DSLR at parents house so iphone pictures are all I have. What do you mean by outsole?

These came in today and they appear to be on the 341 last.  Can anyone comment on this last compared to other C&J lasts?  I really like this last.  The boots fit like a glove without being too snug.

C&J has a last 341 as well. The Coinston and Keswick boots are made on 341 and I think they are similar to this one. Less drea\ssy than teh348, but a good choice as well.

Keswicks are on the 325 last.

Wait, there's Peal & Co stuff on the 341 last? Is this boot the only one on that last?

Isn't the RL Marlow PTB, made by C&J, on the 341 last? That shoe feels a little bit narrower in the toe box to me than a pair of Peal Norwegians made by C&J that are on the 325. Also, the leather on thye Norwegians looks to be exactly the same as that used in these boots. I love the look, and it's one of my favorite pair of shoes.

But just tried them both on again, and they are really close. Here are pics of the soles of each from the C&J website.

Thanks for the photos, been debating whether I am 10.5 or 11 or 341, looks like I'm 11 for sure as 325 10.5 is scrunching the toes a bit

Unfortunately, the 341 Marlows are on a big, wide, double sole. So it's not a true comparison to hold them up against the Norwegians in real life. From these pics, it's really hard to tell the difference.

Was looking mainly at the cordovan boot by BB (waiting for after Christmas) and I think it's on the 341 so if I could I'd order both but looks like 11 may be better? The 10.5 lindricks I just got feel tighter than Marlow wingtips at the moment as well, and those are already as tight as can be for width

Yeah that's the one. TKE, sites not really working right now, but if you search you should be able to find it

Getting the 240 in on Tuesday probably will report back.

I tried on some loafers in the 240 recently, and sized up half from my normal size in the 325.
