Guys, any chance to find a complete size guide somewhere? I've skimmed through almost this entire thread and I am confused - many different (if not contradictory) opinions on sizing of same types of Yuketens. I'm a rather poor fella who can't afford expensive footwear just like that; I've been surfing a lot, looking for genuine bargains on Yuketens, and if one pops up somewhere eventually, I want to be ready to snatch it. Can't do that without knowledge what size I should pick...

For reference, my size on Alden Barrie last is 8, same goes for most Red Wings (I don't own any of these, but I know 8 is my size in these brands). Should I size up to 8.5? So far I have heard that I should size up with Maine Guide 5-Eye. Is that true? What about other styles?

Will appreciate help.

Hi ,
I am 8.5D in Alden Barrie last, and I have two pairs of Yuketen Maine Guide 7-eye, one in 8.5E and one in 9E. While I can fit the 8.5 rather well (they were tight at the beginning but then loose a good bit) I admit I am more comfortable in the 9 (but I like to have some room in my shoes), someone here remove the inner sole in the Yuketen to have more space inside. I am 8.5 also in Red Wings (8113 and 875). Hope this helps.

  • 8.5D in Yuketen Country Ranger
  • 8.5D in Yuketen Penny Loafer
  • 7.5E in Yuketen Plain Toe Dress Boot
