Does anybody know how 10 sei 0 otto sizing works? If I'm a true 11, would a 45 work?

Changes from boot to boot, season to season. I'd ask the stockist.

Hoil= oiled horse?

Sorry. One too many beers last night.

Not HOIL. That was my scarstitch jacket.

The boots were LUC-PTC

 

[eton97]



@eton97, for how long they are missed? **** sometimes popping up from usps depths after a months.

About a year ago.
Unbelievably FedEx left them outside the buyers door without getting a signature. Buyer said they weren't there.
Resulted in FedEx paying out the insurance.....so buyer may have ended up with the boots and the insurance payment.

All the pairs I had were gigantic. Could've easily sized down 1 or even 1 1/2 sizes.

Yes. ages beautifully.

D - i thought so that they were Luc as I remember Eck telling me about your boots. was going to kopp at the time but then I CUBS and it changed my mind. I may end up getting LUC one of these days having seen how your turn out. I have the derby version and love it.

 

[sinnedk]

Luc-ptc is cordovan that is vegetable tanned and ends up brown which only allows it to be dyed dark colors.

Sbuc-ptc is white tanned cordovan and can be dyed any color.

^^ and what is COIL?

 

[sinnedk]



^^ and what is COIL?

oiled horse

 

[eckblk]

Really, where did you get that piece of info? As far as I know Carol has never has used an oiled horse treatment for boots.

HOIL and COIL were just smooth, non-reversed object dyed (PTC) cordovan used for the 2009 collection. HOIL was used on clothing and COIL on footwear.

Great price for a pair of well-made engineer boots if you don't mind the fact they rip the hell off of Carpe:
