Justin those colors and shoes are fantastic, you have definitely developed your own look and style which I think is not easy to do. :slayer:

These are very nice, how do they fit? Are they true to size? Thinking to pick these up myself.

Thanks forex, I'm a tts us 12 d and these are 11.5 JMW sizing (marked "11/" in JMW parlance). Leather soul recommends 11.5 jmw as equivalent to a roomy 12 d and I think that's accurate, they are a bit roomy length and width but I think JMW 11 would have been too small due to the taper in the toe of this last.
If you like a snug fit tho you might go full -1 from us size.
The shoe is constructed incredibly solid and the leather and finishing is superb. Very substantial on the foot even more so than say a CJ polo Marlow or alden barrie cordo ptb for example.
Also Justin at leather soul is a pleasure to deal with and at 495 these are a steal. Metal toes and trees included.
Good luck I recommend them :slayer:

Thank you sir! I enjoy my uniqueness and I used to wear heavy patterned socks but I enjoy bright colors/odd colors but solids and micro patterns are much more versatile and easier to pull off with almost any outfit.
Your new shoes are gorgeous!

Thanks CC, I sent him an email, I am size 11D US and I think 10.5 should work for me but we will see. I've been looking for a good split toe for a while, looked at Sutor as they used to have a split toe I liked and looked at Alden shell split toe but like this one also. I don't have any JMWs so it would be interesting to try these out. Little concerned that they might be too heavy if they are more solid than CJ Marlows but we will see. Thanks for advise!
