Any sizing advice particular to Grant, or is the experience TTS?

It is called the tweener last because it’s said to be half way between and tts. I wear in TTS and have no issues.

Getting the hang of this warm-weather boot thing. I have been very fortunate this summer in snagging a few rare birds but my guess is that these boots will get more use once the weather cools than any pair of footwear I own. Modified AOC-51's on Grant from our good friends at AoC........

Just love the color on these and I still say Grant is Aldens best boot last.

Love the blind eyelets and I’ll have to agree on the Grant last is the best looking Alden captoe last for a boot.

Agree with M-12. TTS works perfectly for me.

Warm weather and boots work fine together, cold weather and boots work fine together. In fact boots are fine in any weather, but then again I'm more of a boot guy. By the way, those Grant lasted boots are beautiful!!

We agree with a lot of things my friend.

9.5 E cigar chukkas seem to be available at the moment if that’s your size.

I would have loved to have that chukka in cigar, but for me at least the juice is not worth the squeeze. $800+ for seconds, not this sucker.

PSA - Winn Perry is clearing out their Alden inventory. Some of the newer cats here might not be familiar with them but they used to make some really nice styles. Check them out for a nice discount.
