Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
6D Carmina Luz Loafer 5.5 UK UK 5.5, great fit sockless
6D Carmina Madison Jumper Boots 6 UK UK 6.0 wearable, but with thin socks the ball portion is tight and I have ankle slip
6D Carmina Madison Oxford & Derby 5.5 UK UK 5.5 near perfect fit
6D Carmina Oscaria Chelsea 6 UK UK 6.0 with thick socks very good fit, a bit loose around my ankle
6D Grant Stone Leo 6D men’s size 6D with my thickest socks; my dream would be a size 5.5 in this last
6D Meermin Hiro Derby 4.5 UK men’s UK 4.5 wearable but the heel is large with gaping when I walk, and the ball area is a bit tight
6D Rancourt 113 Loafer 6D men’s size 6D, I could use a bit more length
6D Rancourt 800 Loafer 6D men’s size 6D, perfect with a front half insole added for my right foot
6D Red Wing 108 Carol And 6” Chelsea 8.5 it doesn’t really work but I wear them anyway in size 8.5 which is just wide enough for the front of my foot in thinner socks, but volume wise too big especially for my right foot. Decent fit with some thin inserts.
6D Red Wing, 105 Moctoe And 106 Silversmith 8.5 size 8.5 is a great fit
6D Thursday Captains 8 women’s size 8 (in my dream world I would have a 7.5 for my right foot) is a great fit
6D Thursday Chukkas 6D men’s size 6D - slightly too short, and too much volume in the arch, but still wearable
6D White’S 55 Last Semi-Dress 8 women’s size 8, custom width - A at the ankle and arch, and D at the ball

6.5D

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
6.5D Ae 65 6E good fit, maybe could have gone down to 6E because there is more room at the toes than my liking. Slight slippage with my left foot.
6.5D Alden 7D Leydon - 7D, Grant - 6.5D, Modified - 6.5D
6.5D Alden Grant 6.5D 6.5D
6.5D Alden Leydon 7D 7D
6.5D Alden Modified 6D 6D is a good fit. Toe box has plenty of room, but waist and heel are snug. Flex point well aligned to my foot.
6.5D Allen Edmonds 234 6.5D 6.5D is a good fit, though perhaps even a hair short. Snug but comfortable with thin socks. Laces close fully on Oxfords.
6.5D Allen Edmonds 333 6.5D 6.5D with heel slip, but they were seconds so.
6.5D Allen Edmonds 65 6.5D 6.5D
6.5D Allen Edmonds Strand 6.5D 6.5D
6.5D Buttero 39 EU 39 in the Tanino is definitely too large - much too long. Even with heel pads I can't make them work. 39 in the Derbies is a bit too large, but it can be made acceptable with a thin footbed. 38s would probably be best in the Derbies, and maybe as far as a 37 in the Tanino, though that is a very rare size.
6.5D Carmina 5.5 UK Forest, Robert - 5.5UK
6.5D Carmina Forest 5.5 UK 5.5UK with a smidge of heel slip
6.5D Carmina Robert 5.5 UK 5.5UK
6.5D Clarks Desert Boot 6D 6D ok fit, I think I went down half a size more than needed. After 4 to 5 hrs of wear I start feeling my toes crammed in the toe box.
6.5D Converse Chuck Lowtop In Leather 6D 6D great fit with no show socks.
6.5D Florsheim Imperial 6.5D 6.5D
6.5D Grant Stone Alexander 6D 6 D - Works well, bit tight over my left foot's instep but not painful. Can't wear barefoot, I need socks to keep them on.
6.5D Grant Stone Leo 6D 6 D - My favourite last. I have 6 pairs on this last. A bit roomy in the instep and ankle areas but more than comfortable.
6.5D J. Fitzpatrick Sneakers 7D 7 D - Works well. I'm happy with the length, they're not too long. I replaced the insert with something with more arch support.
6.5D L.L. Bean 6 6 in Bean Boots works, though is a roomy fit. I have a pair of the LL Bean shearling footbeds in, which takes up most of the additional volume, and I wear with thick socks. Would be too large without those. Dropping to a 5 might make sense if you were going to wear them as a thin-sock shoe. 6 is good for the cold/wet weather intended use.
6.5D Oakstreet Bootmaker Elston 6.5 6.5 was a good fit length-wise, but I found the last too wide for my feet, and I would slide from side-to-side in the shoe.
6.5D Oakstreet Bootmakers Trench Boot 6.5D 6.5D fit felt off in the first wears (too much slippeage of my toes) after breaking them in they are now a good fitted pair of boots.
6.5D Quoddy 6.5 6.5, womens 8.5W
6.5D Rancourt 2592 6D 6 D - I needed a 6.5 (more length and width). Works okay but with thin socks.
6.5D Red Wing 8 6D 6D
6.5D Red Wing 8 5.5D 5.5D is a good fit, snug but not tight anywhere, and the boot aligns well with my flex point. 6.0D was definitely too large. If a 5.75 was available it would probably be perfect.
6.5D Red Wing Ir 6D 6D
6.5D Redwing 8 6D 6D very good fit overall. After prolonged wear 6+ hrs/day I start to get a little discomfort at the instep. Still I just had them for 3 weeks.
6.5D Thursday Boots 6D 6 D and 6.5 D - Both are too narrow in the toe box, but super loose in the heel and instep. The 6.5 is too long but is more comfortable than the 6. The last just doesn't work too well for me.
6.5D Trickers 4537 6 UK 6UK, despite being recommended for my size, is too high volume, and too long, by at least 1/4 size. 5.5 might be too tight, but would be worth a try (though not much is made in that size).
6.5D Truman 6.5D 6.5 D - Roomy in the toe box, but overall works well. Arch support is okay but could be better. Breaking in the instep was painful but they fit well now. I don't know how people with a high instep wear their boots.
6.5D Viberg 2030 6 6 is a good fit, though somewhat snug in the toe-box. Length is right, and volume is OK.
6.5D White's Semi Dress 6.5B 6.5B is how I was sized by Baker Shoe, and it is a great fit. I also own a pair in 6.5D, which is, as expected, a bit too wide, but still fits well with a thin footbed to take up the extra volume.
6.5D Wolverine 6.5D 6.5D was a hair too long, and a hair too high volume. Close enough that I was able to correct with a thin wool footbed and a thin wool heel pad glued into the inside of the boot around the heel counter. A 6.0 probably would have been ideal, but it is a very rare size.

7D

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
7D Ae Boulevard 65 7D 7D, correct fit. This was actually my first GYW shoes and into the rabbit hole. I actually got this measured at my local AE shoe. They did it on their device and had to online order for me as they were out of stock for my size.
7D Ae Shane 42 7D 7D. Correct fit.
7D Alden - Aberdeen 7D US US 7D
7D Alden Aberdeen 7D 7D fits good.

7D Alden Trubalance 6.5D 6.5D fits great.
7D Allen Edmonds 5 7D 7D mostly well, with slight heel slippage
7D Allen Edmonds 65 7D 7D seems long and squishes my pinkie toe. Might try 6.5E next time.
7D Bally 40.5 EU 40.5
7D C & J Cordovan Penny Loafer Last 314 6.5 UK UK 6.5. No slips yet. Could do 6 too.

7D Carmina - Rain 6 UK UK 6 (Instep is a little tight at the beginning)
7D Carmina Inca 6 UK 6UK
7D Carmina Oscar 6 6K. Jumper boots and good fit even with dress shoes. Might be a bit hard to put my legs inside with thicker socks. Could probably go with 6.5.
7D Carmina Robert 7 UK 7 UK fits well with dress socks
7D Cobbler Union - 312 5.5 UK UK 5.5 (Painful at the pinky toe during the first 2-3 wear)
7D Cobbler Union - City 6 UK UK 6
7D Common Projects 39G EU 39 great fit.
7D Crockett And Jones - 318 6 UK UK 6 (Bodileys Mayfair Collection Chukka Boot )
7D Crockett And Jones - 337 6 UK UK 6 (Slightly Elongated)
7D Drakes Crosby/Clifford Chukka Boots 7 UK 7UK.
7D Enzo Bonafe 74945 6 UK UK 6
7D Grant Stone Leo Last Lwb 6.5D 6.5D great fit but the instep was too low for me, it was uncomfortable there.
7D J. Fitzpatrick Tmg 6 UK 6UK is perfect.
7D Loake Buckingham Brogue 6 UK 6UK. This is perfect fit. Initially i thought it would be a bit big but ended up good fit. I enjoy wearing it.
7D Lof & Tung - S 6 UK UK 6
7D Lof & Tung - T 6 UK UK 6
7D Meermin Elton 6 UK UK 6. This was tight. I think with the elton being the slicker, i will probably go 6.5. I might end up just Goodwilling my monk strap.
7D Meermin Rui 6.5 UK 6.5 UK fits a little tight with dress socks
7D Meermin Rui 6 UK 6UK
7D Mmm Gats 40G EU 40 great fit.
7D Rancourt 114 7D 7D
7D Red Wing 7D 7D fits well with hiking socks
7D Red Wing 8 6.5D 6.5D fits pretty well, definitely slightly more volume overall
7D Red Wings 8 6.5D 6.5D fits well with a hiking sock (with a nice amount of toe box room), or snugly with an insole (from an old hiking boot) and thin socks. As there seems to be a lot of volume to these boots I'm probably going to stick with the insole to try and take up the extra volume.
7D Rm Williams 6 Size 6. Perfect fit.
7D Tlb Mallorca - Jones 5.5 UK UK 5.5 (Penny Loafer, Instep is higher than the standard loafers)
7D Tlb Mallorca - Oliver 6 UK UK 6
7D Trickers 6.5 6.5. Its a weird last. Very wide but going down sizes would have been too tight.
7D Viberg 2030 6F 6 fits well with thin socks. Would probably need 6.5 for winter socks.
7D Viberg 2030 6.5F 6.5 fits great.
7D Viberg 2030 6.5 6B There is some space in front and I need to wear thick socks to get no slippage. I could maybe go 6 but I think it would be tight.
7D Wolverine 7D US 7D US a little loose with hiking socks
7D Wolverine 7D 7D is pretty roomy with thin socks.

7E

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
7E Alden Barrie 6EE 6EE
7E Alden Trubalance 6EE 6EE
7E Allen Edmonds 2321 7E 7E (heel slip on my right foot)
7E Allen Edmonds 65 7E 7E (Strand); good fit, though facings do not close (thin socks)
7E Beckett Simonon 7D 7D; tried the derbies in the same size but they are too narrow, especially in the toes
7E Red Wing 210 7.5D 7.5D (Classic Chukka); probably my best fit
7E Red Wing 8 6.5D 6.5D (Beckman); a bit snug on left foot; would likely try a 7 if I get another 8 last boot (thick socks)
7E Trickers 4497s 6 UK 6UK Fitting 6 (heel slip on my right foot)
7E Viberg 1035 6B Have a 6 but it's too narrow. Would have to take a 6.5
7E Viberg 110 6 6
7E Viberg 2030 6.5 6.5
7E Viberg 2040 6 6
7E Viberg 2045 6 6
7E White's Semi-Dress 6EEE 6EEE (Instep seems too high for this last. Have to skip one set of eyelets.)

7 Wide

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
7 Wide Allen Edmonds 5 7E 7E; fits great, all dress shoes.
7 Wide Common Projects 39 EU 39 & 40 EU; 39 are barely wearable, just all around too tight really. 40 are clearly too long, but I’ve tied them so that they are fairly snug. These are really the only shoes I have that don’t really work with my feet.
7 Wide Quoddy 7D 7D; A bit tight at first, but have loosened up overtime and now feel good.
7 Wide Red Wings Ir 6.5D 6.5D; little tight in the width around the ball of my foot. Probably should’ve gotten a wide pair.
7 Wide Rm Williams Craftsman Chelsea 6.5 6.5H; slightly tight in the ball of my foot, but I think the next width size up was way too wide.
7 Wide Viberg 2020 7 7; feels great, little extra room for thicker socks.
7 Wide Viberg 2030 6.5 6.5; feels great

7.5D

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source

7.5D Allen Edmonds 511 7.5D 7.5D fits well with Costco wool socks

7.5D Allen Edmonds 65 7E 7E (Strand); good fit, though facings do not close
7.5D Beckett Simonon 7D 7D; tried the derbies in the same size but they are too narrow, especially in the toes (BS does not offer 7.5 as an option)
7.5D Carmina Detroit 6.5 UK 6.5UK is a tad big in the heel and width with dress socks, otherwise fits fine. This is solved by wearing Costco wool socks
7.5D Carmina Oscar 6.5 UK 6.5UK fits good with dress socks
7.5D Chippewa 7D 7D
7.5D Crockett & Jones 341 6.5 UK 6.5UK fits well with Costco wool socks

7.5D New England Outerwear Company 7.5 7.5
7.5D Quoddy 7.5C 7.5C/D sockless -- 7.5D/8D with socks
7.5D Red Wing 210 7.5D 7.5D (Classic Chukka); good fit all-around
7.5D Red Wing 522 7.5D US 7.5D US Red Wing describes this last as true to size. Fits well as far as length and width go. May need a thin leather insert to take up little bit of volume but I haven't found it necessary.
7.5D Red Wing 8 7.5D US 7.5D US Could have sized down for a snug fit. I can wear thinner cotton socks comfortably but will have to lace a bit tighter. May need a thin leather insert to take up some volume.
7.5D Red Wing 8 7D 7D fits fine with Costco wool socks
7.5D Red Wing 8 7D 7D
7.5D Red Wing 8 6.5D 6.5D (Beckman); snug at the ball on the left foot; should have taken a 7 based on larger foot
7.5D Rider Boot Co 42 7.5D 7.5D fits with dress socks
7.5D Rider Boot Co. 42 7.5D 7.5D (Dundalk); good fit, if a bit long on my smaller right foot
7.5D Trickers 2298 6.5F 6.5 fit 5 is snug in length, 7 fit 5 is too much volume, similar to Alden Trubalance
7.5D Trickers 4497 6.5 UK 6.5UK Fitting 5 Fits me very nicely in about all aspects. I haven't considered anything that would make them fit more comfortably than they already are.
7.5D Trickers 4497 6.5 UK 6.5UK fits well with dress socks
7.5D Vass Budapest 40.5 EU 40.5EU is a half-size large - remedied by using a couple of tongue pads but obviously not ideal

7.5D Viberg 2030 7 7 is a bit tight width-wise with Costco wool socks

8D

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
8D 4444 6.5 UK UK 6.5 is slightly roomy, but fits well with a thin insole or thick socks. Going up or down wouldn't work.
8D 4497 7F UK UK 7 fits really well with any socks
8D Ae, 65 7.5E 7.5E was the best fit through the sales person at an AE store tried to get me into a 7EEE which pinched as soon as I took a step. Either way, I wasnt happy with the fit w/any of these
8D Ae, 97 8D 8D fit OK, but I didnt like the length. 7.5E, the widest part of the shoe didnt fit where it was supposed to
8D Alden 379x 7.5D 7.5D (Very Good arch support, narrow waist and heel)
8D Alden Aberdeen 8D 8D/7.5E (Heel cup too wide)
8D Alden Barrie 7.5 7.5
8D Alden Barrie 8D I wear an 8D in Alden Barrie. This is with medium weight socks. I can fit in it with dress socks, or lighter wool socks. This fits pretty well.
8D Alden Barrie 7.5D 7.5D (Too roomy at heel, slight pressure on toe box)
8D Alden Barrie 8D 8D is an okay fit. Toes are slightly narrow and heel is too loose. A 7.5D fits on my heel but the toe box is way too tight.
8D Alden Copley 7.5E 7.5E (Good arch support, 7.5D slight pressure on toe box even stretched)
8D Alden Grant 7.5 7.5 (snug)
8D Alden Hampton 8D This fit kind of small. I had an 8D that I couldn’t even really comfortably wear it barefoot. Like my feet took up pretty much all the space available in the shoe, both width wise and length wise. I would have sized up by half to even wear it with thin dress socks.
8D Alden Leydon 7.5E 7.5E (Best Fit, good arch support)
8D Alden Modified 7.5D 7.5D (Very Good arch support, narrow waist and heel)
8D Alden Plaza 8D 8D (best fit by far)
8D Alden Plaza 8D 8D/7.5E (Hugs the protruding ball, good arch support. Bit wide heel cup)
8D Alden Trubalance 7A 7A/C is really good fit.
8D Alden Trubalance 7.5D I wear a 7.5D in Alden TruBalance. This is with dress socks. I would definitely size up to an 8D if I wanted to wear it with medium weight socks.
8D Alden Trubalance 7.5D 7.5D (Best arch support. Slightly roomy at heel, slight pressure on toe box)
8D Alden Truebalance 7.5D 7.5D great fit. Roomy in toes and perfectly snug in heel and waist
8D Alden Truflare 7.5D 7.5D
8D Alden, 379x 7.5D 7.5D really good fit. A little snug in the forefoot, I need to wear thinner socks with these so they wouldnt work with a boot. Perfect in the heel and waist
8D Alden, Aberdeen 8D 8D is a bit loose in the heel and tight in the toe box, model of shoe I chose made instep a non issue. The toe box did stretch enough for an ok fit for a boot all around even in a shell model
8D Alden, Barrie 7.5D 7.5D was a pretty good fit. Could be little tighter in the heel and the waist
8D Alden, Copley 8D 8D, pretty good fit, a tad bit long, but overall comfy
8D Alden, Hampton 8D 8D was too tight in the instep and toe box a little long, 8E too big, 7.5EE kind of fit. I didnt keep any of these
8D Alden, Modified 7.5D 7.5D is basically the best fit I have found. This last feels like it was made for my feet. Only tried on so far, but these are a fantastic fit.
8D Alfred Sargent 87 7.5 UK My pair was tagged a 7.5UK, 8US. I bought it through J. Crew. I guess Alfred Sargent just recommends sizing down by half from US to UK? It was an F width, which I’m told is their “normal” width, equivalent to a D in US sizing. This fit kind of strangely on my feet. My feet fit size wise pretty nicely with thin or extra thin dress socks. However, the flex point was oddly “back”. So if you’re a person with long toes but relatively short arch, this would be a great last for you. Not so much for me.
8D Allen Edmonds 8D Higgins Mill; 8D. Left fits perfect. The right tends to rub against my heel. Thinner, but looser, socks seem to mitigate the issue.
8D Allen Edmonds 1757 8D 8D
8D Allen Edmonds 1757 8D 8D
8D Allen Edmonds 201 8D 8D
8D Allen Edmonds 511 8D I have a pair in 8D. That fits a bit tight with thin dress socks. I probably should have gotten an 8E.
8D Allen Edmonds 511 8D 8D Dalton. Great fit.
8D Allen Edmonds 511 8D 8D
8D Allen Edmonds 65 8D 8D
8D Allen Edmonds 65 8D 8D Fifth Street (ankle boot balmoral closed lacing). Facings do not close. Fairly large gap on both. Read that Allen Edmonds closed lacing don't fit well for high insteps, and that the Fifth Street in particular is not cut well for high insteps.
8D Allen Edmonds 65 7.5E 7.5E
8D Allen Edmonds 97 8E I have a pair in 8E. Extremely comfortable with thin socks.
8D Allen Edmonds Colton 8D 8D. Not too bad actually. Added thin insoles and a tongue pad on the left shoe because I was getting too much heel slip. Works well with normal socks and dress socks. Unsure on last.
8D Allen Edmonds Stuttgart, 65 8D 8D. Super narrow and long. An 8.5D or an 8E might have worked in width, but I hated how long the toes were on these were to begin with. Sold.
8D Anthony Cleverley 7 UK 7UK (Slight pressure on toe box)
8D Atomic Ski Boots 41 EU 41
8D C&J 365 6.5 UK 6.5UK
8D C&J 376 7 UK 7UK
8D Capital 7F UK UK 7 fits pretty well with thin socks
8D Carmina Forest 7.5 UK I have a pair in 7.5UK in their standard width. It fits great with thin socks. Really comfortable last.
8D Carmina Forest 7.5E UK 7.5 E UK This last is super comfortable off the bat for me. Wearing medium to thick socks, my toes feel like the have all the room they need while the rest of my foot feels comfortably snug. This is tied with viberg's 2030 as my favorite fitting last.
8D Carmina Lloret 7.5 UK 7.5 UK This last runs much close the D than Forest. Overall fit is snug but comfortable in thin to medium socks but I can't say I would choose this pair if I knew I would be on my feet all day. If I wanted to wear these with thicker socks or didn't mind a snug fit, I would order 0.5 up from forest.
8D Carmina Rain 7 UK I had a pair in 7UK in their standard EE width. Way too small, even barefoot. I should have gotten a 7.5UK in an EE width to wear with thin socks.
8D Carmina Rain 7EE UK UK 7EE (Carmina has their own weird nomenclature)
8D Carmina Simpson 7 UK 7UK (Slight pressure on left instep and need to loosen a bit, otherwise everything's fine)
8D Carmina Uetam 7.5 UK 7.5 UK feels good in the width and fits well with socks. Sockless, it is too long and I need a heel pad to get rid of the heel slip. I would try a 7 UK next time.
8D Chippewa For J. Crew 7.5D 7.5D
8D Claridge 7F UK UK 7 fits really well with thin socks
8D Clarks Desert Boots 7.5D 7.5 D. Comfortable, but the lack of heel structure makes these feel a little too loose for my taste. Tried 7D, too narrow.
8D Converse Chuck 70s 7.5 7.5
8D Doc Martens 939 8D 8D. Large and kind of floppy. Same issues as above. I treat these as beater boots when I need to do yard work or walk around in snow.
8D Enzo Bonafe 363mod 7.5 UK 7.5 UK initally fits well, but the taper eventually hurts my toes after walking a bit still due to the taper. A 7.5 in EB jumpers is shorter than a 7.5 in viberg, carmina, GS, etc. so maybe I need to go up a size, but I'm worried the heel/instep will be too large.
8D Enzo Bonafe 74945 7.5 UK 7.5 UK but a tad loose in the heel for jodhpurs. A tongue pad helps with this. Maybe it would be okay for a laced boot but my square toes aren't a fan of the heavy toebox taper.
8D Frye, James/Jones 8D 8D, feel a little long, but otherwise good fit. They fit, to me similar to the Barrie at 7.5D
8D Grant Stone Leo 7.5 7.5
8D Grant Stone Leo 8D 8D is very comfortable. Lots of space for the toes and snug in the waist. A little heel slip but that is reducing with break in. I would not size down further.
8D Grant Stone Leo 7.5D 7.5D
8D J.Fitzpatrick Tmg 8D 8D
8D John Lofgren Munson 8 8 toebox fits okay but the heels are a little large, a half insert helps with this. A 7.5 was perfect in the heel but way too tight in the side of the toebox/waist. Over time, the heel slip has reduced quite a bit and I don't NEED the heel insert (I can't stand the squeaking). Heel slip has lessened over time and is now very tolerable.
8D Junkard, Blt/ Cyler 41 EU 41/8.5US fits ok, though they run a bit long and wide (Cyler)
8D Junkard, Sc 41 EU 41/8.5US fits ok, though they run a bit long. SC is allegedly 4mm narrow across the toebox than BLT/MLD so fit is better there.
8D L.L. Bean 8D I have a pair of their ranger mocs. It was marked as a size 8D, but fits slightly big. It works either barefoot or with thin-medium weight socks.
8D Ll Bean Boot 7D 7D (unlined)
8D LöF & Tung 's' 7E UK UK 7E
8D Markowski Retro 7.5 UK I have a pair of loafers in 7.5UK. They fit slightly tight barefoot, but eventually broke in. I probably would have needed to size up if they weren’t loafers. I’d say it fits roughly on par with their Timeless last, though. So if you know your size in one of these 2, I’d recommend getting the same size in the other.
8D Markowski Timeless 7.5 UK I have a pair in 7.5 UK. It is their standard width. These only fit with extra thin dress socks. But with those, it feels pretty nice. It’s a relatively narrow and quite tapered last.
8D Meermin Dani 7E UK UK 7E
8D Meermin Elton 7E UK UK 7E
8D Meermin Hiro 7.5 UK I wear 7.5UK in these. It fits great with thin socks.
8D Meermin Hiro 7E UK UK 7E
8D Meermin Hok 6.5E UK UK 6.5E
8D Meermin Olfe 7.5 UK I wear a 7.5UK in these also. It fits roughly the same as Hiro, but has a bit more point to the toe. It might be a tad narrower? It’s hard to tell since my Hiro lasted shoes are both shell cordovan, and my Olfe lasted shoe is suede which has a bit more give to it.
8D Meermin Ron 7E UK UK 7E
8D Moto 25.5C 25.5cm, size 0 in cordovan derby styles. Great fit. Feels almost identical to Alden Modified last.
8D Needles/Nepthenes Engineer Boot 8 UK I have a pair in 8UK. I wear these with my super thick wool socks. It fits really comfortably, with a tiny bit of heel slip. Probably not enough for me to size down, though, since I think the width would have been too tight if I sized down.

8D Ostmo 8D 8D (Bit wide at heel, perfect at toe box and arch)
8D Puma Kings 8.5 8.5, but they sort of hurt me
8D Quoddy 9D I have a pair of their Shearling Lined Grizzly Boots in a size 9D. It fits well with medium or thick socks. With thick socks, the shearling is just a bit more compressed. I like how squishy the shearling feels with medium socks, so I usually wear it with that.
8D Rancourt 114 8D I have a pair of their beefroll penny loafers in a size 8D. It was slightly tight right out of the box, but the CXL eased up and now it fits great barefoot.
8D Rancourt Shearling Lined Loafer 8D I sized up from my 8D to an 8.5D in these. It was a bit tight still. It feels like their shearling was stiffer than Quoddy’s shearling, or something like that. I exchanged for a 9D, which fits much better. I can wear them barefoot or with medium socks. Thick socks are real tight.
8D Rancourt, 114 7.5E 7.5 E. These are a little looser in the heel than I would like, but a great fit up front. 8D was too long for me. These were sized for sockless wear
8D Red Wing 220 8D 8D
8D Red Wing 23 8D 8D
8D Red Wing 8 8.5D I got sized as an 8.5D in Iron Rangers at the Red Wing store. I don’t own a pair, though.
8D Red Wing 8 8D 8D, feels slightly long in toe box but good in width.
8D Red Wing 9268 Engineer Boots 7D 7D. Slightly tight on instep during break-in, pretty comfortable now.
8D Red Wing Chelsea Congress Boots, Mil-1 7.5D 7.5D. Comfortable... now. These were a bit of a nightmare to break in. After initial break in, I felt like they were too roomy and I ended up adding insoles.
8D Red Wing, 8 8D No good fit, but didn't try wide sizes. 8D was too long, and 7.5D too tight in terms of width. Tried both round toe and flatbox beckmans
8D Rider 42 8D 8D great in toe box with snug waist and a little tight on the instep. I think an 8.5 would be way too large in the heel.
8D Rider Boot Co 4a 8.5 US I have a pair of chukkas in a size 8.5 US. It fits with thin socks. I think that’s in part due to the taper.
8D Rm Williams Comfort Craftsman 7G 7G (a little toe room)
8D Rw 8 8D 8D was too big, 7.5D way too small and I cried when I sent back that pair of flatbox beckmans
8D Shimano Bike Shoes 41 EU 41 Wide
8D Taft Dragon Boots 8D 8D. Too large. No half sizes, and I suspect a 7D would have been too short. Tried to make these work with insoles, but it wasn't happening. Sold.
8D Thorogood Beloit, No. 60 7D 7D. Were initially tight on my right foot, but are comfortable after break-in. Tried a size 8D, and those were way too big. Same last as Mondovi, different sizing. Go figure.
8D Thorogood Mondovi, No. 60 8D 8D. Just slightly tight on first wear, very comfortable on break in.
8D Thursday Boot Co 8.5D US I have a pair in 8.5D US. It fits great with medium weight socks. It’s kind of a strange boot, though. The heel kind of digs in to my foot through the leather midsole. The toe is also shaped just slightly off. Not sure what it is about it, but fits decently.
8D Thursday Boot Co. Captain Boot 8D 8D. Comfortable. Just roomy enough to make wearing thick wool socks or normal cotton socks equally comfortable.
8D Timberland 9-Eye Coulter 7D 7D (apparently these fit really big).
8D Vans 7.5 Assumingly 7.5, 7 right on heel cup but length too short
8D Viberg 110 7.5A 7.5 also very roomy but comfortable. I'm able to lace these tight enough to get rid of heel slip with medium to thick socks.
8D Viberg 2030 7.5 7.5 (a little toe room). Can fit 7 (thin socks, snug fit)
8D Viberg 2030 7.5F 7.5 fits perfect or 8 with thick socks but that's a little loose overall (7.5 preferred). One of my favorite lasts
8D Viberg 240 7.5 7.5 very roomy but works in terms of the hikers because they lace to the toe. If they did not lace that far, it would be too wide. Heel to ball location is spot on, though
8D Viberg 40218 7 7 originally had heel slip but now that have broken in, the heel slip is gone with socks and I can wear them without, just still with a little heel slip. Very comfortable. Will try a 6.5 to wear without socks
8D Viberg 42977 7.5 7.5 is too tight for my left foot; 8 would probably be perfect. I think this is now the 2020 last.
8D Viberg, 2030 7.5 Good fit with 7.5. Similar to Barrie. Maybe a little longer. Happy with these.
8D Vivo Barefoot 8 8
8D W2298 7F UK UK 7 fits well with medium thickness socks
8D Wesco Motor Patrol 8.5E I have a pair that was stretch lasted on the 8.5E size. These run about half a size narrow, according to both the folks at Standard and Strange and at Wesco. So the E width is what a person who normally gets a D width should get. They said my foot tracing corresponded with 8.5EE, but they didn’t have the heel stack that I wanted for an 8.5EE last. So they stretch lasted an 8.5E for me. It fits nicely with medium weight socks. The toebox presses down on the tops of my toes a bit sometimes, but it’s not a big deal for me.
8D Wolverine 1000 Mile 7.5D 7.5 D. More roomy than I would like in toe-box, but should work well with thick socks. Nice fit about ankle and instep with normal socks. Tried 7D, but they were way too narrow.
8D Xero 8 8
8D øStmo Moe 8 US 8 US/ 41.5 EU, probably my most comfortable boot. Perfectly snug in the heel and waist, roomy toe box. Some of this may be due to moose leather being very supple. Hands down my most comfortable pair of boots.

8E

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
8E Alden Barrie 8D I wear an 8D in Alden Barrie. This is with medium weight socks. I can fit in it with dress socks, or lighter wool socks. This fits pretty well.
8E Alden Barrie 8D US US 8D is snug with thin socks, slight heel slip. US 7.5E is similarly snug, maybe a bit narrower at toes (due to foot being further forward) and snugger at ball of foot. No heel slip.
8E Alden Hampton 8D This fit kind of small. I had an 8D that I couldn’t even really comfortably wear it barefoot. Like my feet took up pretty much all the space available in the shoe, both width wise and length wise. I would have sized up by half to even wear it with thin dress socks.
8E Alden Trubalance 7.5D I wear a 7.5D in Alden TruBalance. This is with dress socks. I would definitely size up to an 8D if I wanted to wear it with medium weight socks.
8E Alden Trubalance 7.5D US US 7.5D has sufficient volume, but uncomfortable. This wasn't clear when trying on, but my feet/calves feel fatigued after wearing. Not sure why as I couldn't identify any direct pressure points.
8E Alfred Sargent 87 7.5 UK My pair was tagged a 7.5UK, 8US. I bought it through J. Crew. I guess Alfred Sargent just recommends sizing down by half from US to UK? It was an F width, which I’m told is their “normal” width, equivalent to a D in US sizing. This fit kind of strangely on my feet. My feet fit size wise pretty nicely with thin or extra thin dress socks. However, the flex point was oddly “back”. So if you’re a person with long toes but relatively short arch, this would be a great last for you. Not so much for me.
8E Allen Edmonds 234 8E US US8E had too much heel slip, and was too narrow for me.
8E Allen Edmonds 511 8D I have a pair in 8D. That fits a bit tight with thin dress socks. I probably should have gotten an 8E.
8E Allen Edmonds 511 8E US US 8E had too much volume. AE Leeds needed an insole with medium weight socks, AE Long Branch was unwearable due to heel slip even with thick socks.
8E Allen Edmonds 65 8E US US 8E was too narrow at toes.
8E Allen Edmonds 97 8E I have a pair in 8E. Extremely comfortable with thin socks.
8E Alred Sargent 109 7.5 UK UK 7.5 was too narrow at toes.
8E Carmina Detroit 7 UK UK 7 too voluminous with thin socks, too narrow at toes.
8E Carmina Forest 7.5 UK I have a pair in 7.5UK in their standard width. It fits great with thin socks. Really comfortable last.
8E Carmina Rain 7 UK I had a pair in 7UK in their standard EE width. Way too small, even barefoot. I should have gotten a 7.5UK in an EE width to wear with thin socks.
8E Carmina Rain 7 UK UK 7 way too narrow at toes. UK 7.5 still felt narrow when trying on.
8E Cheaney 11028 7.5F UK UK 7.5F is a satisfactory fit at toes/ball/instep. Was fitted in store, and at the time it seemed like Cheaney's most comfortable last for me.
8E Cheaney 4436 7G UK UK 7G was too narrow at toes.
8E L.L. Bean 8D I have a pair of their ranger mocs. It was marked as a size 8D, but fits slightly big. It works either barefoot or with thin-medium weight socks.
8E Loake Pennine 7G UK UK 7G was good fit with extra thick wool socks, needed insole with anything else (voluminous last).
8E Markowski Retro 7.5 UK I have a pair of loafers in 7.5UK. They fit slightly tight barefoot, but eventually broke in. I probably would have needed to size up if they weren’t loafers. I’d say it fits roughly on par with their Timeless last, though. So if you know your size in one of these 2, I’d recommend getting the same size in the other.
8E Markowski Timeless 7.5 UK I have a pair in 7.5 UK. It is their standard width. These only fit with extra thin dress socks. But with those, it feels pretty nice. It’s a relatively narrow and quite tapered last.
8E Meermin Hiro 7.5 UK I wear 7.5UK in these. It fits great with thin socks.
8E Meermin Olfe 7.5 UK I wear a 7.5UK in these also. It fits roughly the same as Hiro, but has a bit more point to the toe. It might be a tad narrower? It’s hard to tell since my Hiro lasted shoes are both shell cordovan, and my Olfe lasted shoe is suede which has a bit more give to it.
8E Meermin Rui 7 UK UK 7 wearable in boots with medium socks, can feel toe pinch with dress socks in shoes.
8E Needles/Nepthenes Engineer Boot 8 UK I have a pair in 8UK. I wear these with my super thick wool socks. It fits really comfortably, with a tiny bit of heel slip. Probably not enough for me to size down, though, since I think the width would have been too tight if I sized down.
8E Quoddy 9D I have a pair of their Shearling Lined Grizzly Boots in a size 9D. It fits well with medium or thick socks. With thick socks, the shearling is just a bit more compressed. I like how squishy the shearling feels with medium socks, so I usually wear it with that.
8E Quoddy 8 US US 8 in penny loafer with no show socks is comfortable.
8E Rancourt 114 8D I have a pair of their beefroll penny loafers in a size 8D. It was slightly tight right out of the box, but the CXL eased up and now it fits great barefoot.
8E Rancourt Shearling Lined Loafer 8D I sized up from my 8D to an 8.5D in these. It was a bit tight still. It feels like their shearling was stiffer than Quoddy’s shearling, or something like that. I exchanged for a 9D, which fits much better. I can wear them barefoot or with medium socks. Thick socks are real tight.
8E Red Wing 8 8.5D I got sized as an 8.5D in Iron Rangers at the Red Wing store. I don’t own a pair, though.
8E Rider Boot Co 4a 8.5 US I have a pair of chukkas in a size 8.5 US. It fits with thin socks. I think that’s in part due to the taper.
8E Rm Williams B543 7G Fitted in store for an AU 7G in medium socks. Noticed after extended wear that it pinches my toes and is tight at ball of my feet. Not sure if I should try AU 7.5G (AU 7H was kind of voluminous).
8E Thursday Boot Co 8.5D US I have a pair in 8.5D US. It fits great with medium weight socks. It’s kind of a strange boot, though. The heel kind of digs in to my foot through the leather midsole. The toe is also shaped just slightly off. Not sure what it is about it, but fits decently.

8E Yanko 915 7.5F UK UK 7.5F is comfortable fit at arches if slightly long.

8 Narrow

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
8 Narrow Saint Laurent Wyatt Size 40.5 13A More high volume than they look (previous seasons like AW13 are supposedly narrower), they fit fine with both thin and thick socks (better for a snugger fit). Cant' get my feet into the 40s, so half a size down to 40.5 is perfect.

8 Wide

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
8 Wide Adidas 9.5 9.5 or 10 depending on the shoe.
8 Wide Alden Barrie 8D 8D is an okay fit. Toes are slightly narrow and heel is too loose. A 7.5D fits on my heel but the toe box is way too tight. I avoid this last now.
8 Wide Alden Trubalance 8.5E 8.5E
8 Wide Alden Truebalance 8D 8D is great and one of my favorite lasts. Roomy in the toe but comfortably snug elsewhere. A 7.5d in CXL also fits well but cxl is known to stretch.
8 Wide Ankle 21.5C 21.5cm, 21.5cm
8 Wide Ball 26C 26.0cm, 25.5cm
8 Wide Bean Boots 9EE 9EE. Brand new so I haven't worn them much but I would've sized down if I intended to wear with thinner socks. I only plan on wearing these with thicc socks and the fit is fine, if not slightly too big. Too bad 8.5 doesn't exist.
8 Wide Canada West 805? 8E 8E. Canada West's lasts are designated by the toe box I'm pretty sure, and their website shows their E width last as being labelled 805. Smallest sized boot I own, but it fits. Not great, but it fits with thin socks. The boot handles the volume of my foot without too much issue, but I think the flex point of my foot just doesn't line up well. I would likely better be served going up to 8.5, so I can wear thicker socks and get a better foot alignment.
8 Wide Carmina Forest 7.5E UK 7.5 E UK This last is super comfortable off the bat for me. Wearing medium to thick socks, my toes feel like the have all the room they need while the rest of my foot feels comfortably snug. This is one of my favorite lasts comfort wise.
8 Wide Carmina Lloret 7.5 UK 7.5 UK This last runs much close the D than Forest. Overall fit is snug but comfortable in thin to medium socks but I can't say I would choose this pair if I knew I would be on my feet all day. If I wanted to wear these with thicker socks or didn't mind a snug fit, I would order 0.5 up from forest.
8 Wide Carmina Oscar 7.5E UK 7.5 E UK It runs slightly smaller than forest in width but still comfortable. I think this is a very nice last for a sleek boot.
8 Wide Carmina Rain 7EEE 7.0EEE - Too tight everywhere; forefoot, instep, heel. Length seems about right though. I have a feeling 7.5EEE would still be too tight, and then it starts getting definitely too long after that. Aesthetically pleasing European lasts are not kind to wide feet. Unwearable.
8 Wide Carmina Uetam 7.5 UK 7.5 UK feels good in the width and fits well with socks. Sockless, it is too long and I need a heel pad to get rid of the heel slip. I would try a 7 UK next time.
8 Wide Danner Dpdx 9EE 9EE. Best fit I have.
8 Wide Dayton 11377 Service Boot 7EE 7.0EE - Great fit all around with medium weight socks. Probably too tight with heavy wool socks. I'm pretty sure my ball of my feet extend over the welt considerably - might only be a "good fit" because the leather is supple. Instep is low or my instep volume is high - need to completely undo laces to get boots on.
8 Wide Edit 8.5 Finally got measured on a Brannock. 8.5 heel-to-toe, 9.5 heel-to-ball.
8 Wide Enzo Bonafe 363mod 7.5 UK 7.5 UK initally fits well, but the taper eventually hurts my toes after walking a bit still due to the taper. A 7.5 in EB jumpers is shorter than a 7.5 in viberg, carmina, GS, etc. so maybe I need to go up a size, but I'm worried the heel/instep will be too large.
8 Wide Enzo Bonafe 74945 7.5 UK 7.5 UK but a tad loose in the heel for jodhpurs. A tongue pad helps with this. Maybe it would be okay for a laced boot but my square toes aren't a fan of the heavy toebox taper.
8 Wide Grant Stone Alexander 8.5E 8.5E. Not a phenomenal fit. It's actually about as wide and slightly longer than Rancourt's 8.5EE, but the opening for your foot is more closed, so while it helps to not bow out as much, it feels tighter. I would probably feel more comfortable going 9E.
8 Wide Grant Stone Leo 9E 9E. Diesel pattern initially felt tight in the in-step, but once broken in it fits like a dream. The PTB pattern fit like a dream from the beginning. May have to due with the Diesel's gusseted tongue affecting the fit. Once broken in, competes for one of my best fits.
8 Wide Grant Stone Leo 7.5D 7.5D - Too narrow, foot feels constricted all day despite wearing my thinnest socks. Never managed to break in to feel comfortable. Unwearable.
8 Wide Grant Stone Leo 7.5E 7.5E - Much better fit width wise than 7.5E. Might still be slightly tight in forefoot with medium weight socks. However, some heel slip with thinner dress socks. Heel slip never fully went away. Might be a touch long. Acceptable fit.
8 Wide Grant Stone Leo 8D 8D is very comfortable. Lots of space for the toes and snug in the waist. Heel slip goes away after break in.
8 Wide Heel 33C 33.0cm, 33.0cm
8 Wide Heel-To-Ball 8 Just over 8.0 Left Foot, just under 8.0 Right foot
8 Wide Heel-To-Toe 8E 8.0E Left foot, 8.0EE Right Foot
8 Wide Herring 220 7.5G 7.5G, great fit overall, quite a bit of room left at the front of the shoe likely on account of it's elongated toe. Pinches my big toe a tiny bit.
8 Wide Instep 25C 25.0cm, 24.5cm
8 Wide John Lofgren 120 8.5 8.5
8 Wide John Lofgren Munson 8 8 toebox fits okay but the heels are a little large. Heel slip has virtually disappeared after a few weeks of break in and these are now very comfortable.
8 Wide Length 25 25.2cm, 24.9cm
8 Wide New Balance Sneakers 8.5D 8.5D
8 Wide Nicks 55 Robert 7.5E 7.5E - Nearly perfect fit. Might be a touch long, but the overall width along the foot is snug but comfortable wearing both medium and thick wool socks. Slight pressure on instep.
8 Wide Nike Sneakers 9D 9D
8 Wide Other Stuff 8A I wear size 8 athletic shoes. This includes tennis shoes from Adidas, Asics, Nike. Weightlifting shoes from Adidas, Reebok. All of these initially are incredibly tight but they break in very fast from the activities I wear them for. I do not want to size up to 8.5 on any of these as I do not want to be catching the front of my shoes on things from extra length in the toe box.
8 Wide Rancourt 114 8.5EE 8.5EE works sockless/with thin socks. Fits my right foot like a dream but my left foot feels a tiny bit off pressure on the midfoot; I would size up a half size for any footwear I intend to wear with thicker socks. Loafers bow out.
8 Wide Red Wing 220 9D 9D. Not a good fit. My foot definitely fits inside the shoe, but this last is narrow and is definitely not meant for a high volume midfoot. Lots of pressure at the instep and my pinky toe visibly bulges the leather.
8 Wide Red Wing 8 8D 8D, feels slightly long in toe box but good in width.
8 Wide Red Wing No. 8 8EE 8EE (tad roomy)
8 Wide Rider 42 8D 8D great in toe box with snug waist and a little tight on the instep. I think an 8.5 would be way too large in the heel.
8 Wide Santalum 5 39 EU 39 - These are a good fit if I'm wearing thin dress socks. Mid weight socks are too tight in the forefoot for all day comfort. Also, my toes are by far the closest to the end of the boots in these - it is comparable to my athletic shoes (maybe half a thumbs width of space). This does not affect comfort though. Overall, a surprisingly good fit.
8 Wide Sperry Ao 9D 9D. Definitely got some bowing going on, and would benefit from going to a wider size but I couldn't size down lengthwise since my foot is already at the end of these.
8 Wide Thursday 9EE 9EE. Second best fit I have. No problems whatsoever.
8 Wide Thursday Captains 7.5 7.5 - Forefoot too tight, although did break in to be comfortable enough. It is also very long. Acceptable fit.
8 Wide Vans 10 10. Could possibly fit into a 9.5 but I've found 10 to be more accommodating to the volume of my feet.
8 Wide Viberg 110 7.5A 7.5 also very roomy but comfortable. I'm able to lace these tight enough to get rid of heel slip with medium to thick socks.
8 Wide Viberg 2030 7.5F 7.5 fits perfect or 8 with thick socks but that's a little loose overall (7.5 preferred). One of my favorite lasts
8 Wide Viberg 2055 7.5 7.5 roomy in the toe and fits very well. I can wear a 7 in these with thin socks.
8 Wide Viberg 240 7.5 7.5 very roomy but works in terms of the hikers because they lace to the toe. If they did not lace that far, it would be too wide. Heel to ball location is spot on, though
8 Wide Viberg 40218 Now 2010 7 7 originally had heel slip but now that have broken in, the heel slip is gone with socks and I can wear them without, just still with a little heel slip. Very comfortable. 6.5 is perfect for sockless.
8 Wide Viberg 42977 Now 2020 7.5 7.5 is too tight for my left foot; 8 would probably be perfect.
8 Wide Waist 24.5C 24.5cm, 24.0cm
8 Wide Wesco 1339 9E 9E
8 Wide Wesco Mp95 7.5A Custom 7.5 and 7.0 Widths - These were built taking my measurements so it is definitely the best fitting pair of footwear I have. Heavy wool socks is comfortable along the entire length. Initial heel slip, but went away after break in.
8 Wide White's 55 8.5E 8.5E
8 Wide White's Barrie 7.5E 7.5E - might be a bit tight in the forefoot wearing medium weight socks. Like the Leo last though, if I wear thinner socks then I end up with heel slip, although not to the extent of the Leo. Also possibly slightly long. Acceptable to good fit.
8 Wide White's Mp 8.5E 8.5E (snug)
8 Wide øStmo Moe 8 US 8 US/ 41.5 EU, Perfectly snug in the heel and waist, roomy toe box but a little tight were the seam of the tongue sits. This may fit better due to moose leather being very supple so they have stretched to be very comfortable. I have also picked up 8.5/ 42 EU which also fits very well except for being slightly long.

8.5 Wide 240 8D 8D (Brooks Brothers boots - thin socks only, medium and boot socks crush my pinky toes - 8.5D is better fit for the width, but a bit too long)
8.5 Wide 325 7.5E UK 7.5E UK or 8E UK (8E UK a bit too long, but toes are fine) (Similar to 325 with less room on the toe)
8.5 Wide 335 7.5E UK 7.5E UK - Length is good and width is decent with thin and medium socks
8.5 Wide 341 8E UK 8E UK (7.5UK is not a good fitting on the toe area, it is on the narrow side. Similar to 360 and 363)
8.5 Wide 363mod 8 UK 8UK (Good fit, plenty of room on toes, a bit shorter than 74945 \- which i like ) probably 7.5UK is better, but i have not tried that size
8.5 Wide 365 7.5E UK 7.5E UK (low in-step, not good on oxfords - it has the largest room on the toe area of all C&J lasts)
8.5 Wide 74945 8 UK 8UK (Good fit, a tad long, but nothing that bothers me)
8.5 Wide 946 8 UK 8UK (Similar fit as 74945)
8.5 Wide Aberdeen 8.5E 8.5E

8.5 Wide Ae 511 8.5E 8.5E (length and width are good, but horrible fitting for my arches) - have to use stretching device, and change shoe lacing approach. The fitting is horrible for my high arches
8.5 Wide Ae 65 8.5E 8.5E (I like the look of the last but it is a low in-step last, oxfords display a big V gap for me)
8.5 Wide Alden Aberdeen 8E 8E on loafer (heel cup minimally larger than ideal, hint of tight instep, but width good)
8.5 Wide Alden Barrie 8D 8D or 7.5EE fit ok (8E too wide, 7.5D too narrow). Both are maybe a hint narrow. Overall Im closer to 8D than 7.5EE. I could be 8.5D but havent had the chance to try.
8.5 Wide Alden Barrie 8E US US 8E is comfortable (in shoe and boot). US 8D was less so (at ball of foot, felt narrow).
8.5 Wide Alden Barrie 8C 8 C/E fits like a dream probably my best fitting shoes so far. If I get anything else in a Barrie last it'll have to be wide. I have a pair of 8 B/D and they took a long time before they were really ever wearable even with really thin socks.
8.5 Wide Alden Copley 8.5E 8.5E (wonderful fit)
8.5 Wide Alden Hampton 8.5E 8.5E (Great fit)

8.5 Wide Alden Van 8E US US 8E works well with dress socks/no shoe shocks.
8.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 234 8E US US8E not a good fit. Too much heel slip, and was too narrow for me.
8.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 511 8E US US 8E didn't work. AE Leeds needed an insole with medium weight socks, AE Long Branch was unwearable due to heel slip even with thick socks.

8.5 Wide Cheaney 4436 7G UK UK 7G was too narrow at toes.
8.5 Wide Crockett & Jones 325 7.5 UK 7.5UK (I also have RL Marlow Wingtips at 8.5D US. they are equivalent)

8.5 Wide Crockett And Jones 325 7.5 UK UK 7.5.
8.5 Wide Crockett And Jones 348 7.5 UK UK 7.5. Surprisingly comfortable, although there was a bit of toe pinch when I first wore these. I suspect it's due to the length of the last.
8.5 Wide Dayton 11377h 8EE 8EE (Andrew nailed my sizing. trust his advice)
8.5 Wide Edward Green 202 8 UK 8UK (pretty decent fit. ever so slightly narrow in toe box but not a big deal)

8.5 Wide Enzo Bonafe 804 7 UK 7UK, Good length and width. I have a lot of room in the instep to heel area. Very roomy for me at the back of the boot. Bit of heel slip.
8.5 Wide Enzo Bonafe 804 7 UK 7UK. Can wear for long periods of time, only issue is that after 3 - 5 hours on your feet, the area around the ball starts to ache. Still able to walk, just not as comfortable.
8.5 Wide Enzo Bonafe 946 7.5 UK 7.5UK
8.5 Wide Forest 8 UK 8UK (lower in step than Oscar - oxfords are a bit of a challenge for the V gap, however boots and derbies are good)

8.5 Wide Hampton 8.5E 8.5E
8.5 Wide Hiro 8 UK 8UK
8.5 Wide Inca 8 UK 8UK - length and width is good but not good on oxfords, due to my instep, the V gap is too big for me.
8.5 Wide Iron Ranger 8 8D 8D - one of the best fitting boots i have, my broken-in IRs are more comfortable than ALL my sneakers.
8.5 Wide J Fitzpatrick Tmg 7 UK 7UK good fit in my loafers. Slight heel slip, though Justin said this was intentional for that loafer. Thin socks make it too tight, bought it to wear barefooted.
8.5 Wide J Fitzpatrick Tmg 7 UK 7UK. After 2 hours of walking/on your feet, noticeable rubbing on the bottom of the main toe starts occurring. Makes walking very uncomfortable, would not walk for long periods of time in this shoe.
8.5 Wide J. Fitzpatrick Lpb 7.5 UK 7.5UK (very tiny heelslip without socks)
8.5 Wide J. Fitzpatrick Sea 7.5 UK 7.5UK (narrow in toes and a little in ballwidth. bad fit)

8.5 Wide L.L. Bean Boots 7EE 7EE
8.5 Wide Leydon 8.5E 8.5E
8.5 Wide Llubi 8 UK 8UK, Wider than Oscar, plenty of room all around, boots need a small insert, it is a bit too long but the width is really good, 7.5UK had some rub on my pinkies
8.5 Wide Loake Capital 7.5 UK 7.5UK
8.5 Wide Loake Pennine 7G UK UK 7G was good fit with extra thick wool socks, needed insole with anything else (voluminous last).
8.5 Wide Maine Mountain Moccasin 8.5 8.5 is about as good as it can be. I can wear these with a variety of sock thicknesses without any discomfort. There's a touch of pressure at my pinky toes sometimes when I first put them on but it tends to go away pretty quickly. I wish the heels fit a little more snug because socks have a tendency to slip down and bunch a bit around my heels which is annoying.
8.5 Wide Meermin Hiro 7.5 UK 7.5UK (tight in the toebox)
8.5 Wide Meermin Rui 7.5 UK 7.5UK (despite its reputation, still tight in width/instep for me)

8.5 Wide Quoddy 8 8.25EE (8.5E slightly tight in width and long, 8EE too tight in width/instep)
8.5 Wide Quoddy 8 US US 8 in penny loafer with no show socks is comfortable.
8.5 Wide Rain 8 UK 8UK good all around, including oxfords - small V gap on oxfords that is manageable
8.5 Wide Rancourt 8.5EE 8.5EE (slightly long, minor heel slip, width is good)
8.5 Wide Rancourt Loafer 8 8 is doable (like the Barrie last) with either super thin socks or completely sockless. Future Rancourt purchases will have to be either a half size up to accommodate for socks or a width up so my feet don't stretch the leather too much.
8.5 Wide Red Wing 210 8.5D 8.5D (slightly tight in width, wish they made wide sizes like before)
8.5 Wide Red Wing 60 8.5D 8.5D (great fit; recommend for wide footers)

8.5 Wide Rm Williams 7G 7G, near perfect fit, at least when i tried in store.
8.5 Wide Rm Williams B543 7G Fitted in store for an AU 7G in medium socks. Noticed after extended wear that it pinches my toes and is tight at ball of my feet. Not sure if I should try AU 7.5G (AU 7H was kind of voluminous).
8.5 Wide Rm Williams Comfort Turnout 7.5G 7.5G (fit is good, better than the 7.5H Craftsman)
8.5 Wide Rm Williams Craftsman 7.5 7.5H (a tiny bit long and wide)
8.5 Wide Robert 8 UK 8UK (good all around including oxfords - this is the best fitting Carmina last for my high in-steps)
8.5 Wide Rui 8 UK 8UK
8.5 Wide Simpson 8.5 UK 8.5UK - only good on boots and derbies - oxfords crush my arches - not a great fit length wise, they are on the long side. Overall not a good fit.
8.5 Wide Soller 8 UK 8UK (boots and derbies are better)
8.5 Wide Stefano Bemer S 41.5 EU 41.5
8.5 Wide Trickers 2298 7.5 UK 7.5UK (slightly tight in width, a bit wide in the heel)
8.5 Wide Trickers 4497 8 UK 8UK (facings touch on open laced shoes, but overall fit is excellent)
8.5 Wide Trubalance 8D 8D (great roomy feel on my toes)
8.5 Wide Truman Boot Co 8.5D 8.5D (instep is super tight, plenty of length in toes though)
8.5 Wide Viberg 1004 8 8 (slightly narrow in ball width)
8.5 Wide Viberg 1035 8 8 (best fitting viberg last for me)
8.5 Wide Viberg 2030 8 8 (pretty solid fit overall)
8.5 Wide Viberg 2040 8 8 (tightest fit compared to other viberg lasts. Especially in ball width. Havent tried an 8.5 yet)
8.5 Wide Viberg 2050 8.5 8.5 (8 was too tight in ball width and too hard to slip on)
8.5 Wide Viberg 40218 7.5 7.5 (slightly long. heel is a bit wide without socks. 7 would probably be too hard to get on)
8.5 Wide White's Mp 8EE 8EE sized by Kyle at Baker's with my thickest pair of socks. This size can work with thinner socks, but if they are too thin I feel like my feet are swimming. Still super incredibly comfy though.
8.5 Wide Yanko 915 7.5F UK UK 7.5F is comfortable fit at arches if slightly long.

9D Carmina Soller 8 UK 8 UK great fit

9D Epaulet Trainers 42 EU 42 EUR
9D Feet 10 Heel-to-toe 10½″ or just shy of. Never been on the brannock device but should be about 9. Short, wide splaying toes, straight inner, possibly developing a tailors bunion. Ball 10¼″, instep 9¾″ (lowish) heel 12¾″ (problematically narrow). Skinny ankles. Generally size 42 EUR.
9D Feit 9 US 9 US / 42 EUR. Handsewns comfortable, shoes with structured toe not good.

9D Loake 026 8 UK 8UK - bit big, were snug initially but stretched quite a bit due to them being made from suede leather, this last has lots of space in toebox coming across slightly dressier.

9D Loake Capital 8 UK 8UK. Can't size up because of instep, pinches toes. Bad.

9D Red Wing 8 8.5 8.5, great fit with decent room for toes.

9D Trickers 4497 8 UK Great in 8 UK. Generous.
9D Truman 9D 9D. Rough break-in, outside ball slightly over the welt but broke in well. Great fit in thinner socks, rubs nail on big toe so it feels a bit tired on the end of the day. Also doable in 9.5D with boot socks, but lacing would have to be done rather tight.
9D Truman Boot Co 9D Tried on a 9D of a RTW pair which I returned. Fit OK but snug instep.
9D Vass F 41.5 EU A/B tested 41.5, 42 and 42.5. 42 is the best fit. Snug around toes.

9D Viberg 1004 "Cantilever" 9 US 9US. Excellent, favorite so far.
9D Viberg 1035 8.5 All Viberg lasts fit the same said the Viberg guys. If you are taking different lasts you are most likely sizing down to reduce toe room which is wrong. Or you have unusual feet. 8.5 is great. 8 too small, 9 too large.
9D Viberg 1035 8.5 8.5 - perfect fit, very comfortable with some space in the toebox about half and inch. Can wear both thick and thin socks very comfortably.

9D Wolverine 8 8 in Centennial last

9 Wide Ae 1757 9EEE 9EEE
9 Wide Ae 1943 9EEE 9EEE
9 Wide Ae 1943 9EEE 9EEE - heel is a great fit with good amount of v on the laces, good fit on the mid foot ( actually quite wide) toes too narrow, I don’t wear these much, probably needed a 9.5EEE or a 10E in this last.
9 Wide Ae 97 9.5EEE 9.5EEE - my first pair of GYW that I got from a local cobbler - a little long and a little wide, so I think going TTS on this last would fit me like a glove. A little slipping but not bad, extremely comfortable though.
9 Wide Alden Barrie 9E 9E. Great for shoes, but I might move up one width for boots after having a tight pair.
9 Wide Alden Barrie 9.5D 9.5D works on unlined dovers. Actual size is probably 9.5E or 9EE
9 Wide Alden Trubalance 9EE 9EE (potentially even 9.5EE), owned a 9E pair that was too narrow at the ball of my right foot even after attempts to stretch them. Left foot felt perfect, hence the assumption that a wider width would have made them a good fit.

9 Wide Allen Edmonds 65 9EEE 9EEE, basically as perfect as an oxford can fit for me. Facings close, no pinching, and length is almost ideal (could be slightly shorter, but 8.5EEE crushes my instep)
9 Wide Allen Edmonds 65 9EEE 9EEE
9 Wide Allen Edmonds, 1757 9E 9E, toe box is a little too wide, very high volume last
9 Wide Allen Edmonds, 1943 9E 9E, great fit overall, lacings close but only just
9 Wide Allen Edmonds, 511 9E 9E, good fit overall, shaft is a bit high volume on Daltons but ok
9 Wide Allen Edmonds, 65 9E 9E, fit is alright
9 Wide Allen Edmonds, 79 9E 9E, toe box is a little tight
9 Wide Asics 10.5 10.5
9 Wide Branock Size 9EEE 9EEE, right foot is a little shorter and wider then my left. Kinda short toes, normal arch and I’d say normal to very slightly high instep.
9 Wide Carmina, Detroit 8 UK 8UK, fit is good and similar to Barrie
9 Wide Carmina, Forest 8.5 UK 8.5UK
9 Wide Carmina, Inca 8.5 UK 8.5UK
9 Wide Carmina, Rain 8.5 UK 8.5UK
9 Wide Epaulet Tennis Trainers 10 10. A little tight at first, but once broken in, my most comfortable pair. In a perfect world could be a little shorter.
9 Wide Grant Stone Leo 9EEE 9EEE - high volume, fits pretty good with thick socks on my diesels, on my LWB with thinner socks the heel is loser then I would prefer, plenty of room everywhere else, I’m gonna try a 10E next.
9 Wide J.Crew Kenton Pacer 10D 10D, good fit despite being 'over-sized', wide enough for both feet and not too long. The pair I have is suede which is relatively malleable so that might contribute to how well they fit.
9 Wide Meermin, Elton 8.5 UK 8.5UK
9 Wide Nike 10.5 10.5
9 Wide Primeknit Nmd R1 10 10
9 Wide Quoddy Maliseet Ranger Moc 9EEE unknown last - 9EEE - perfect initially now a bit too lose, if buying unlined i highly recommend dropped a half size, if buying lined probably good to go TTS.
9 Wide Quoddy, Blucher 9D 9D, fantastic fit
9 Wide Quoddy, Maliseet 9D 9D, a bit tighter than blucher, fine for thin socks or sockless
9 Wide Rancourt Camp Moc 70 EU 700 last? - 9EE - almost perfect fit, instep is a little too tight though.
9 Wide Rancourt, John 9D 9D, fine for thin socks or sockless, relatively short in length
9 Wide Red Wing 210 10D 10D
9 Wide Red Wing 23 9.5D 9.5D, not a great fit, they were wearable but my feet bulged out of the sides like crazy due to how wide they are, and it eventually got too uncomfortable. Assuming 9 or 9.5 EE would make them fit a lot better
9 Wide Red Wing 8 9EE 9EE, great fit, plenty wide and lots of room for thick socks.
9 Wide Red Wing 8 9EE 9EE (iron rangers)
9 Wide Red Wing Ir 10 10 Wide - long but the width is perfect. Have no issues with slipping, though I imagine the length isn't ideal for my feet, but I the only discomfort I have is from the lack of arch support.
9 Wide Red Wing No.8 9E 9E
9 Wide Red Wing No.8 9EE 9EE - Great heel fit, a little narrow though the mid foot, but too long and long enough the ball of my feet sit in an awkward place on the insole.
9 Wide Red Wing, 8 9D 9D, generally good fit throughout
9 Wide Truman 9.5EE 9.5EE, my best fitting pair, feels great in every dimension
9 Wide Truman 9.5D 9.5D, 9D is ok with thin socks, 9.5D works with thin or thick
9 Wide Truman 79 9.5EE 9.5EE
9 Wide Vass, Budapest 42 EU 42, very good, better arch support than most of the above, but need to avoid tying laces very tight or toes get pinched on the flex while walking
9 Wide Viberg 1035 9 9. Perfect, a little wiggle room.
9 Wide Viberg 1035 9.5 9.5
9 Wide Viberg 2030 9.5 9.5, glove-like fit in all but width which could be a smidgen wider, hence I've applied some spot stretching to both pairs I own at the ball (mainly to accommodate my right foot). Sizing up half a size has not created any length problems like tripping over the tip of my boot or misaligned flex points. Only wearable with light to medium socks as volume is not particularly generous
9 Wide Viberg 2030 9.5 9.5
9 Wide Whites Barrie 9EE 9EE - fits great in the heel, slightly long and with some spill over though the mid foot. Facings are reasonably close.
9 Wide Wolverine 1k 10D 10D, actually fits surprisingly well for a pair that I went up a whole size in. Lots of width, not too long, and spacious enough for boot socks. My go-to pair for truly nasty weather or if I need black boots.

9.5D Alden Barrie 8.5E 8.5E, though 9D is very very similar
9.5D Alden Barrie 9D 9D (shell dovers, sockless and with socks), fit is good, 9.5D (shell boots, with socks), fit is pretty good except it sometimes feels a smidge tight around the instep and sometimes my right arch starts hurting a bit, I'm not sure why.
9.5D Alden Barrie 8.5E 8.5E - Okay fit. Little too wide, I suspect a 9D would be much better
9.5D Alden Barrie 8.5D 8.5D - Poor fit. Only tried in shell, couldn't fit toe into shoe
9.5D Alden Barrie 9D 9D (OK with thin socks)
9.5D Alden Barrie 9D 9D, too narrow in the toes
9.5D Alden Barrie 8.5E I can be comfortable in Bluchers in 8.5E. Most of my pairs are 9E, which need thicker socks to fit really well (E is the standard Alden width at most European retailers). I have a pair of 9D shell chukkas that fits well, but after 2 months still has a little heel slip.
9.5D Alden Grant 9E 9E is a wonderful fit for me in 4060 boots with medium socks. I did have a little heel slip in the beginning that went away.

9.5D Allen Edmonds 65 8.5D 8.5D with thin dress socks - very snug toward the front
9.5D Allen Edmonds 65 9d 9E Excellent fit. I can fully close the lacing most of the way up for an ideal look. Initially I tried 9E because many people recommend 1/2 size down and 1 width up for this last. I could fully close the lacing with the shoes still being a little loose with 9E.
9.5D Allen Edmonds, 1757 9E 9E, toe box is a little too wide, very high volume last

9.5D Carmina Detroit 8 UK 8UK
9.5D Carmina Detroit 8.5 UK 8.5UK. The width at the ball seemed tighter than Llubi and Soller, but the heels wider. I don’t have wide heels so the fit was not ideal. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Carmina Forest 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Way too narrow and low. I had to limp back from the bus stop after wearing these for a full day. Worn with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5D Carmina Forest 9 UK 9UK. Still too narrow. This pair was used cordovan, so it may have been the way the rolls were formed, but there was still pressure on my right foot (my wider foot) and the tops of my feet. Worn with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5D Carmina Forrest 8.5 UK 8.5UK (shoes, sockless), too narrow at toes
9.5D Carmina Llubi 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Length is good and width was comfortable on both feet Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks, but it was the most comfortable out of all of Carmina’s lasts for me.
9.5D Carmina Oscar 9 UK 9UK. Width was snug, but not terrible. The instep was too tight and caused a lot of pain by the end of the day. This could have been because I purchased them used. Worn with thin cotton dress socks as well as thin wool hiking socks.
9.5D Carmina Oscar 8.5E UK 8.5E UK - Perfect fit.
9.5D Carmina Rain 8.5 UK 8.5UK
9.5D Carmina Rain 8.5 UK 8.5UK
9.5D Carmina Rain 8.5 UK 8.5uk
9.5D Carmina Rain 9 UK 9UK. The width is good, but too long in length and the toe taper presses against my pinky toe on the right foot (my wider one). Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Carmina Rain 9 9. Not a good fit, but improved with leather insoles. I like the last and plan to size down.
9.5D Carmina Rain 8 Uk 8.5 Snug fit. Works well with suede, have not tried anything more rigid long term. 8.5 would probably work well for laced shoes as well.
9.5D Carmina Simpson 8.5 UK 8.5uk but tight, 9uk would've worked better IMO
9.5D Carmina Soller 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Fits very similar to the Llubi. Would put it as a slight second to the Llubi last due to comfort around the bunion area. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Carmina Uetam 8.5 UK 8.5uk perfect fit

9.5D Crockett & Jones 325 8.5uk 8 UK Too big. Sized up to fit a special insole, which in hindsight was not a good decision. 8UK would be better.

9.5D Crockett & Jones Shell Boots For Peal & Co 9D 9D
9.5D Crockett And Jones 325 9 UK 9UK. Another very solid fit. Felt very similar to the 8.5 Llubi or Soller. Width was comfortable and snug against the bunions, but not pinching at all. Toes and flex point were all in good spots. Heels were supported nicely. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Crockett Jones 335 8E UK 8E UK - Perfect fit.
9.5D Edward Green 202 9D UK 9D Uk/9.5C US - Okay fit. Only worn briefly inside, have not walked any distance in shoes
9.5D Enzo Bonafe 363mod 8.5 UK 8.5UK (boots, with socks), too tight all around, probably should have sized up and possibly went up a width
9.5D Enzo Bonafe 74945 9 UK 9UK. I have three pairs in this, and all fit a bit different. The chukka is good width wise, but a tiny bit long, and the toe taper can be troubling, if I have a high sodium day. The Chelsea is a bit long, but can’t adjust due to the lacelessness. The derby boot probably fits best, but this might be the softer temper of hippo vs. veg tanned calf in my chukkas. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Epaulet Gats 9.5D 9.5D
9.5D Epaulet Sneakers 9.5D 9.5D (GATs, sockless and with socks), fits perfectly.
9.5D Grant Stone 9.5D 9.5D Leo, Dune Ottawa, amazing boots, super comfy, 9E might be a better fit but I have no regrets on these.
9.5D Great Stone Alexander 8.5d 9D Mostly great fit but too much heel slippage. Perhaps more time and break in on the stiff leather sole would make it work. in 9D my feet can slide right out.
9.5D Greats Royale 9.5D 9.5D, super comfortable (9.5 is a 10 equivalent)
9.5D J. Fitzpatrick Lpb 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Way too narrow. Lots of pressure on the bunions and instantly felt pain. Was in consistent pain after a few minutes and couldn’t keep them on my feet. Only tried on in store and with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5D J. Fitzpatrick Mfg 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Didn’t feel much pressure on the left foot, but was still there on the right foot. Like the TMG, one of the two least offensive lasts for me, but would still require a bit of stretching to make it very comfortable out of the box for me. Only tried on in store and with thin cotton socks.
9.5D J. Fitzpatrick Ngt 8.5 UK 8.5UK. There was pressure on the bunions, but less pressure on the insteps than the SEA. Almost seemed shorter, but that could have been the longer six eyelet derby I tried on. Only tried on in store and with thin cotton dress socks. With the jodhpur and Costco wool socks it felt snug, but not overly so.
9.5D J. Fitzpatrick Ngt 9 UK 9UK. Snug, but not overly so. A smidge long, but not unbearable for the button boots. The Chelsea fit similarly, with the jodhpur being longer. Actually sized down to 8.5 for the jodhpur and was bearable, but not an ideal fit. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5D J. Fitzpatrick Ngt 8 UK Have double monks at 8UK and Chelsea boots at 8.5UK. Monks are snug but have broken in nicely. Chelseas work with a thin insole after breaking in.
9.5D J. Fitzpatrick Sea 8.5 UK 8.5UK. The width was not as tight as the LPB, but I felt consistent pressure on the instep. Reminded me a lot of the Carmina Oscar last and was uncomfortable for the fitting. Only tried on in store and with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5D J. Fitzpatrick Tmg 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Billed as the more generous last, but I still felt pressure on the bunions. In general, their lasts didn’t work for me, but this was one of the least offensive of the bunch and would have been okay with a bit of stretching in the width. Only tried on in store with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5D John Lofgren Combat 8.5D 8.5D - Perfect fit
9.5D John Lofgren Engineer 9D 9D - Good fit. Once broken in, heel slip went away.

9.5D Lofgren 110 9.5 I’m aware that it’s not polite anymore to cherish them, but the Steadfast Chukka in 9.5 is my best fitting shoe — ever. I’m keeping an eye open for Skomaker Dagestad Yamagata make-ups in the future.
9.5D Maison Margiela Gats 42 EU 42
9.5D Meermin 8.5 UK Hiro last 8.5UK Fits perfectly
9.5D Meermin Hiro 8.5 UK 8.5UK
9.5D Meermin Hiro 8.5 UK 8.5uk perfect fit everywhere except maybe the heel that's a bit too wide. Starts out tight in the morning but loosens up after 30min of wear. I base my fits on this last
9.5D Meermin Hiro 8.5E UK 8.5E UK - Good fit. Little tight, but the boots I had were shearling lined so the interior was thicker than normal.
9.5D Meermin Rui 8.5 UK 8.5UK
9.5D Meermin, Elton 8.5 UK 8.5UK

9.5D Quoddy 9.5D 9.5D
9.5D Quoddy 9.5D 9.5D (maliseet oxfords, sockless and with socks), fits well
9.5D Quoddy 9 9 - Good fit with no shows. After long walks, there is a lot of rubbing on the pinky.
9.5D Quoddy, Blucher 9D 9D, fantastic fit
9.5D Quoddy, Maliseet 9D 9D, a bit tighter than blucher, fine for thin socks or sockless
9.5D Rancourt 9D 9D (loafer) - Great fit with no shows. Not perfect but no complaints, may be perfect once fully broken in.
9.5D Rancourt 9.5D 9.5D (moc) - too large, foot slipped around.
9.5D Rancourt 114 9 9 (This was on a pair of CXL loafers which stretched from tight to loose)
9.5D Rancourt 114 9d 8C Great fit sometimes. Rancourt's lasting seems very inconsistent. Some of it is differences in leather and lined vs unlined, but a lot of it is lasting differences. Among the many pairs I tried a pair of color 8 CXL beefrolls were the best fitting. Never felt loose. and a pair of natural CXL beefrolls were very loose I could slide right out of them. If you don't have a lot of volume I would be pretty cautious with their loafers.
9.5D Rancourt 800 9.5D 9.5D (perfect fit)
9.5D Rancourt 800 9d 9.5D Great fit. very snug in the toes. Were the shoes more structured I would go with 9.5D.
9.5D Rancourt, John 9D 9D, fine for thin socks or sockless, relatively short in length

9.5D Rider Boot Co 40 9.5D 9.5D
9.5D Rider Boot Co 42 9.5D 9.5D
9.5D Rider Boot Co. 40 9.5 US 9.5US. Slightly shorter and narrower than the 42 last, it was noticeable and when combined with the stiffness of shell, I never broke these in. Worn with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5D Rider Boot Co. 42 9.5 US 9.5US. Fit me very well for the longest time, but stopped wearing after I snapped my cotton laces. Tried wearing them after that and they seemed a bit tighter than before. Have not tried it again after I gave up alcohol, which has helped immensely with joint pain. Worn with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5D Rider Boot Co. 42 10 US 10US. Width is good, but too long. The creasing gets weird and I don’t reach for these often due to the blake stitch being bunched up in one spot. I thought sizing up by half and switching to thick wool socks would be okay, but it changed the fit considerably and not in a good direction. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Rm Williams 8.5G 8.5G AUS - Great fit. My big toe is slightly tight.
9.5D Rm Williams B543 8.5G 8.5G
9.5D Rm Williams Craftsman 9G 9G. The width and toe taper were much more comfortable for me than the Macquarie. Length and heels felt the same, just way more room in the forefoot. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Rm Williams G 8.5 8.5 (oxfords). Snug fit. Have gone dancing in them and all is fine, but they are too tight after several hours of wear. Quite a short last.
9.5D Rm Williams Macquarie 9G 9G. Break in was a real demon with these. They were a bit narrow and the toe taper too severe. My feet has visibly stretched out the yearling leather, but now they are pretty darn comfortable. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Rm Williams Stockman 8.5G 8.5G. The sales associate recommended to size down by half compared to craftsman and Macquarie. I totally agree. The length, width, and heels all felt very comfortable at half size down. I would say that it is comfortable right out of the box. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Rm Williams Turnout 9G 9G. Similar to the craftsman, but with a slightly different toe. I did not feel that different in the length, width, or heels compared to the craftsman. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Rossignol Cross-Country Ski Boots 9.5 US 9.5 US (medium weight socks)
9.5D Sagara Mark 43D EU 43D
9.5D Sagara Mark 43D EU 43D (boots, with socks), fits comfortably and is snug at the heel, arch sometimes hurts when walking, not sure why
9.5D Samuel Hubbard 9.5D 9.5D "Fast" (not sure of last), hands down the most comfortable shoes I own, 9.5E might be even a better fit in the toes, but the discount was too good to pass up.
9.5D Sebago Docksides 9 9W US in both suede and smooth leather, suede being slightly longer and wider
9.5D Tricker's 2298 8.5 UK 8.5UK
9.5D Tricker's W2298 8.5F 8.5 Fitting 5 (slightly snug on little toe)
9.5D Trickers 4444 8 8 or 8.5UK
9.5D Trickers 4444 8.5 A perfect fit in 8.5 with medium socks in Logger boots. Lots of toe room and good heel feeling.
9.5D Trickers 4497 8.5 UK 8.5UK (tramping shoes, sockless), fits almost perfectly though I do have to lace them so tight that the facings are touching, otherwise the heel is too loose, 9UK (boots, with socks), fit is comfortable but on the looser side, I have to lace tighter than normal to keep my foot secure since the heel is a bit loose
9.5D Trickers 4497s 8.5 8.5 is a little too short, while 9 feels too big in most pairs. No more Stows for me. I used to be in England regularly, but missed the chance to check out their below-5 widths.
9.5D Trickers W2297 8.5F 8.5 fitting 5 (normal) - Good fit. I can't quite pinpoint it (which is weird) but there's a tiny amount of pressure in the toebox.
9.5D Truman 10D 10D. The instep is snug, but not uncomfortable. The width is good, generous even, but it is a bit long. The footbed is uncomfortable, so I haven’t worn these that much. Just a bit big all around, so they are not my go-to pair. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5D Truman 9.5D 9.5D, 9D is ok with thin socks, 9.5D works with thin or thick
9.5D Truman 9.5D 9.5D - Great fit, nice amount of room in the toebox
9.5D Truman 79 9.5D 9.5D (boots, with socks) instep too tight
9.5D Truman Boot Co 9.5 9.5
9.5D Vans 10 10.
9.5D Vass F 42F EU 42F (normal width) - Great fit. Nice and snug. Only tried on though, have not walked any distance in shoes.
9.5D Vass, Budapest 42 EU 42, very good, better arch support than most of the above, but need to avoid tying laces very tight or toes get pinched on the flex while walking
9.5D Viberg 2020d 9 8.5 A little too roomy, but the 8.5 I can't wear my preferred socks in, and I don't want to wear thin socks with Vibergs. Will be trying the 2020E 8.5 when it is eventually released.
9.5D Viberg 2030 9 9
9.5D Viberg 2030 8.5 8.5
9.5D Viberg 2030 9 9
9.5D Viberg 2030 9D 9D (boots, with socks) too tight around the pinky toes, perfect everywhere else
9.5D Viberg 2030 8.5 8.5 - Perfect fit. Prior to breaking in or after a large amount of walking, there is some pressure on the pinky
9.5D Viberg 2030 8 8 - way too short
9.5D Viberg 2030 9 9 - too large, foot rattled around in the boot
9.5D Viberg 2040 8.5 8.5. Decent fit. Good in the toe box and heel. Waist seems a bit narrow for my foot, but it’s fine.
9.5D Viberg 2045 8.5 8.5 or 9
9.5D Viberg 2045 8.5 8.5 - Great fit. Very roomy in the toebox.
9.5D Viberg 2050 9 9 - good length, pushed on my pinky and caused immense chafing on the top of my foot. May have gone away once broken in, but too uncomfortable for me to find out.
9.5D Viberg 40218 7.5 7.5. Snug fit. Tight on the instep, snug around the heel, snug around the toes. Not really the right shape for my feet at all, which becomes obvious if I try to walk any serious distance in them, but they look so nice.
9.5D Viberg Cantilever 9D 9D - Good fit. Little too large lengthwise.
9.5D Viberg Slipper 7.5 7.5 with heel counter installed by prior owner - Great fit barefoot. Too tight with no shows.
9.5D White's 50/50 9d 8.5E So-so fit, probably an 8.5E would have been better, the 8D and 8.5D Bakers recommended would not have worked. Do NOT buy this last without a fit sheet, it is a very weird last sizing wise. Also as the arch breaks in your foot will push further forward into the toe box so don't go down too far in length unless you have high arches to begin with.
9.5D White's 55 9.5C 9.5C. Sized by Baker's.
9.5D White's Northwest 10C 10C. Sized by Baker's.
9.5D Whites Barrie 8.5d 8.5D Felt too tight on the instep brand new. Baker's recommended 8.5D, but I think I would have been happier with 9D. 8.5D may have worked with thinner socks. I used DT cushioned boot socks at the time. I returned this pair.

9.5E Alden Barrie 9.5E 9.5E
9.5E Alden Barrie 9E 9E. Unlined Dovers feel great, but looking down it looks like the sides of my feet push out and overhang the welt. Lined wingtip boots feel the tiniest bit tight, but they could still need break-in.
9.5E Alden Trubalance 9.5E 9.5 E could go ee if they ever made it
9.5E Alden Trubalance 9E 9E. Best fit of my life.
9.5E Allen Edmonds 108 9.5EEE 9.5 EEE
9.5E Allen Edmonds 108 9.5E 9.5E is one width too narrow
9.5E Allen Edmonds 511 9.5EEE 9.5 EEE is the best fit and what I would call perfect in a boot
9.5E Allen Edmonds 65 9.5EEE 9.5 EEE
9.5E Allen Edmonds 79 9.5EEE 9.5 EEE and is tight across the instep due to loafer models only
9.5E Allen Edmonds 97 9.5EEE 9.5 EEE
9.5E Carmina Detroit 9EEE UK UK 9EEE Great fit in a boot, but very slight heel slip in a derby.
9.5E Carmina Llubi 9 UK UK 9. Had to stretch the instep 3 times to get it OK. after breaking it in is alright, but I would not buy again.
9.5E Epaulet Tennis Trainer 10 10. Felt too narrow on initial fit but has broken in well. Sometimes feels too long, but not much to do in the sneaker realm.
9.5E Oak Street Bootmakers 9.5 9.5 is a bit narrow
9.5E Rm Williams Craftsman 9G 9G fits nicely, although after breaking in feels roomy but extremely comfortable to wear all day. Seriously comfy shoes and last. 8.5H also fits, but looks extremely wide and not as aesthetic as the regular widths (H is really wide). Heard the Macquarie last is exactly the same other than being narrower on toe profile, but the craftsman toe profile is plenty roomy so i'd stick with the same size.
9.5E Saint Laurent Paris Wyatt 40 42 EU 42 in suede harness boots, but i'd probably bump up to 42.5 in leather. If you have feet on the wider end of the scale, stick pretty TTS rather than going down too much, they are a narrow last.
9.5E Trickers 4497s 9 UK UK 9 width 6
9.5E Viberg 1035 9 9. Width is great, heel is a little loose. No way sizing down from here would work.
9.5E Viberg 110 8.5 8.5
9.5E Viberg 2030 9 9. Do not size down any further than 0.5 size down if you have wider feet. Had the 8.5 for a while and it was strangling my mid and forefoot, plus the heel cup felt too narrow too. Viberg leather is thick and heavy, don't expect it to stretch much. If 0.5 size down feels roomy, wear thicker socks, you really don't want to go too small with these.

9.5 Wide

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
9.5 Wide Alden 379x 9D 9D - Perfect! Absolutely perfect. Narrow heel, supportive arch and instep and nice and wide in the toes. This last is seriously incredible for people with feet like mine. Not the most attractive though! Note that I installed a tongue pad but purely for aesthetic reasons and not for comfort. Cannot size down for thin socks! Instep and arch will be too restricting.
9.5 Wide Alden Barrie 9D 9D - Good fit, but not perfect. Feels large in the ankle and heel and fits just okay in the instep. Decent fit in the ball area and toe box. Used a tongue pad to add volume in the ankle area to help the facings close properly. Modified fits me better. Size 8.5E is a great fit with lightweight socks.
9.5 Wide Alden Barrie 9D 9D - Good length but ultimately too tight in instep and toes - I wore them to death anyway - will try 9E next time - my gateway drug to GYW
9.5 Wide Alden Barrie 9E 9E - good, snug fit.
9.5 Wide Alden Grant 9.5E 9.5E - a bit long, but good enough with Superfeet Easyfit insert and thin socks. good width in ball, a bit wide in heel. Good toe room, and an overall comfy last for a long day.
9.5 Wide Alden Modified 9D 9D - Literally perfect. Snug in all the right places - narrow heel, high arch (but doesn't squeeze your foot) and snug instep. Lots of room in the toe. Does not need a tongue pad for the facings to close properly. Can size down safely to 8.5D for thin socks.
9.5 Wide Alden Plaza 9.5D 9.5D - Great fit with medium to thin socks only. I might be able to get away with 9.5E for thick socks but I haven't tried it and I likely won't. I'll probably wear this last in warmer weather only. Fitting is perfect - it feels like Modified but longer, narrower and flatter in the toe. Snug heel, instep and toe box. Much nicer looking on-foot than Modified or 379X. Cannot size down or up. Last is already long. Might try E-width for winter socks.
9.5 Wide Alden Tremont 9D 9D - Wearable with medium to thin socks only. Normal-fitting, average last. Looks alright for a casual shoe but otherwise uninteresting. Wide enough for single E-width feet. Normal width heel, instep and forefoot and slightly wide in the toe. May try 9E for the extra volume for thicker socks.
9.5 Wide Alden Trubalance 9.5EEE 9.5 EEE (Good length, narrow toe box, too wide bag of the foot)
9.5 Wide Alden Trubalance 9D 9D - Great fit with mid-weight or thin socks
9.5 Wide Alden Van 9D 9D - slightly too large. Significant heel slip in normal socks. Would try a 8.5D or 8.5E.
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 108 9E 9E - good, snug fit
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 108 9.5D 9.5D - a bit long, and a tiny bit narrow in ball, but good enough. 9E is better.
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 201 9.5D 9.5D - tiny bit long but good width. This is a roomier last than the 65. Might prefer 9E.
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 2321 9.5D 9.5D - Very roomy and comfortable, maybe slightly long
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 65 9.5EEE 9.5EEE, probably can go down to EE, it is a bit roomy, but length is good
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 65 9.5D 9.5D - Forgiving but too long and slightly tight
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 65 9.5E 9.5E - Comfortable but never got a chance to break them in with Covid - can't wait to really wear these
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 65 9.5D 9.5D - not enough room in instep. Big 'V' in laces.
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 7 9.5D 9.5D - Comfortable with thinner socks, but tight in the toes.
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds 97 9.5D 9.5D - Good length tiny bit narrow in ball. Have "bowing" around ankle due to flat foot.
9.5 Wide Allen Edmonds Boone 9.5D 9.5D - Comfortable but with thinner socks otherwise too tight.
9.5 Wide Beckett Simonon Reid 10D 10D - Comfortable but slightly too long, 9.5D might fit but I'm guessing would be too narrow
9.5 Wide Brooks Adrenaline 10EE 10EE - Comfortable, great fit
9.5 Wide Carmina Detroit 8.5 UK 8.5UK. The width at the ball seemed tighter than Llubi and Soller, but the heels wider. I don’t have wide heels so the fit was not ideal. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Carmina Detroit Eee 8E UK 8E UK - Good fit, but not perfect. Instep is inhumanly voluminous on this last. I actually installed not one but TWO tongue pads, this time to assist in locking down my heel. Heel slip was prevalent - but only because of the ridiculously hard heel stiffener that Carmina uses on their jumper boots. It took a lot of break in. My heel was not happy. With the tongue pads installed, the instep and arch fits very nicely. Length is slightly long and width is perfect. These are comfortable boots now but the break in process was not worth it. Yeah don't even try sizing down. My toes hurt even thinking about it. Try another last.
9.5 Wide Carmina Forest 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Way too narrow and low. I had to limp back from the bus stop after wearing these for a full day. Worn with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5 Wide Carmina Forest 9 UK 9UK. Still too narrow. This pair was used cordovan, so it may have been the way the rolls were formed, but there was still pressure on my right foot (my wider foot) and the tops of my feet. Worn with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5 Wide Carmina Forest 8E 8E - too narrow overall. too small. didn't buy.
9.5 Wide Carmina Forest 8EEE 8EEE - way too wide. didn't buy.
9.5 Wide Carmina Llubi 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Length is good and width was comfortable on both feet Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks, but it was the most comfortable out of all of Carmina’s lasts for me.
9.5 Wide Carmina Oscar 9 UK 9UK. Width was snug, but not terrible. The instep was too tight and caused a lot of pain by the end of the day. This could have been because I purchased them used. Worn with thin cotton dress socks as well as thin wool hiking socks.
9.5 Wide Carmina Rain 9 UK 9UK. The width is good, but too long in length and the toe taper presses against my pinky toe on the right foot (my wider one). Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Carmina Soller 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Fits very similar to the Llubi. Would put it as a slight second to the Llubi last due to comfort around the bunion area. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Carmina Soller 8E 8E - too narrow. didn't buy.
9.5 Wide Clark's Desert Boots 9.5D 9.5D - Slightly too large but afraid a 9 would be too tight
9.5 Wide Crockett & Jones 240 - 9 9 (US) - perfect in heel w/ pedag viva mini. A bit too snug in ball, but ok with thin socks. small in toes. Had very long break in. Good length, so I wouldn't want to size up, but if there were a wider size option, I would prefer that.
9.5 Wide Crockett & Jones 325 8 8 (UK) great fit. Good in heel, more room overall than 240. Lots of toe room. didn't buy.
9.5 Wide Crockett & Jones 341 - Harlech Shell Boot 8.5 8.5 (UK) - good room in ball. probably best choice. didn't buy.
9.5 Wide Crockett & Jones 365 8E UK 8E UK - Perfect fit. As you can see I love my tongue pads and installed one on these boots too (again, purely so the facings close nicely on my skinny ankles - not for fit issues). I seriously love this last - it fits as fantastically as the Alden Modified/379X lasts but with the added benefit of looking awesome. Snug in the heel, medium/low instep, medium/low arch and wide in the toe box. Super comfortable! The last has the perfect taper for a tall boot. Well done C&J. Can safely size down to 7.5E UK for thin socks.
9.5 Wide Crockett And Jones 325 9 UK 9UK. Another very solid fit. Felt very similar to the 8.5 Llubi or Soller. Width was comfortable and snug against the bunions, but not pinching at all. Toes and flex point were all in good spots. Heels were supported nicely. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Enzo Bonafe 74945 9 UK 9UK. I have three pairs in this, and all fit a bit different. The chukka is good width wise, but a tiny bit long, and the toe taper can be troubling, if I have a high sodium day. The Chelsea is a bit long, but can’t adjust due to the lacelessness. The derby boot probably fits best, but this might be the softer temper of hippo vs. veg tanned calf in my chukkas. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Good Man Brand Legend Low 9.5D 9.5D - Comfortable and just only slightly too tight in the toes
9.5 Wide Grant Stone 9.5D 9.5D - Before they offered E widths - a little too long and slightly narrower than desired but still very comfortable
9.5 Wide Grant Stone Alexander 8.5E 8.5E - snug sockless or thin socks. broke into less snug but great fit overall in thin socks.
9.5 Wide Grant Stone Leo 9D 9D, similar fit as RW No8, instep tightness, took a week to break that in
9.5 Wide Grant Stone Leo 9E 9E, best fit, no break in required.
9.5 Wide Greats Royale 9.5D 9.5D - Good fit after break-in
9.5 Wide J. Fitzpatrick Lpb 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Way too narrow. Lots of pressure on the bunions and instantly felt pain. Was in consistent pain after a few minutes and couldn’t keep them on my feet. Only tried on in store and with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5 Wide J. Fitzpatrick Mfg 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Didn’t feel much pressure on the left foot, but was still there on the right foot. Like the TMG, one of the two least offensive lasts for me, but would still require a bit of stretching to make it very comfortable out of the box for me. Only tried on in store and with thin cotton socks.
9.5 Wide J. Fitzpatrick Ngt 8.5 UK 8.5UK. There was pressure on the bunions, but less pressure on the insteps than the SEA. Almost seemed shorter, but that could have been the longer six eyelet derby I tried on. Only tried on in store and with thin cotton dress socks. With the jodhpur and Costco wool socks it felt snug, but not overly so.
9.5 Wide J. Fitzpatrick Ngt 9 UK 9UK. Snug, but not overly so. A smidge long, but not unbearable for the button boots. The Chelsea fit similarly, with the jodhpur being longer. Actually sized down to 8.5 for the jodhpur and was bearable, but not an ideal fit. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide J. Fitzpatrick Sea 8.5 UK 8.5UK. The width was not as tight as the LPB, but I felt consistent pressure on the instep. Reminded me a lot of the Carmina Oscar last and was uncomfortable for the fitting. Only tried on in store and with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5 Wide J. Fitzpatrick Tmg 8.5 UK 8.5UK. Billed as the more generous last, but I still felt pressure on the bunions. In general, their lasts didn’t work for me, but this was one of the least offensive of the bunch and would have been okay with a bit of stretching in the width. Only tried on in store with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5 Wide Meermin New Rey 8.5 8.5 - too narrow overall. didn't buy.
9.5 Wide Meermin New Rey 9 9 - too long, still too narrow. didn't buy.
9.5 Wide Meermin Rui 8.5 8.5 - good with thin socks. lots of toe room.
9.5 Wide Nike Killshot 2 9.5 9.5 - good fit.
9.5 Wide Quoddy Dorm Boot 9 9 - perfect.
9.5 Wide Rancourt Acadia 9.5D 9.5D - Pretty comfortable with thin socks but wish I'd gone E width so I could wear winter weight socks. Forgivingly stretchy CXL though.
9.5 Wide Rancourt Cxl Boat Shoe 9.5D 9.5D - roomy sockless, or snug fit with medium socks. Could go with 9E for better length, but I like them loose for slipping on and off. Newer pair seems to fit narrower, though.
9.5 Wide Red Wing 210 9.5D 9.5D - Excellent fit. Heel, instep and arch is good. Toes is slightly snug but breaks in comfortably. Is slightly long. Definitely cannot size down in this last!
9.5 Wide Red Wing 8 9D 9D - Good fit, medium heel, snug instep with subtle arch support and wide enough in the toes. Is kinda long looking. Tough break in though. Cannot size down without painful consequences.
9.5 Wide Red Wing Beckman Chukka 9.5D 9.5D - Slightly too large but OK with thick socks - most uncomfortable shoes I've ever tried to love
9.5 Wide Red Wing No 8 9D 9D, took a while to break in, had some instep tightness
9.5 Wide Rider Boot Co. 40 9.5 US 9.5US. Slightly shorter and narrower than the 42 last, it was noticeable and when combined with the stiffness of shell, I never broke these in. Worn with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5 Wide Rider Boot Co. 42 9.5 US 9.5US. Fit me very well for the longest time, but stopped wearing after I snapped my cotton laces. Tried wearing them after that and they seemed a bit tighter than before. Have not tried it again after I gave up alcohol, which has helped immensely with joint pain. Worn with thin cotton dress socks.
9.5 Wide Rider Boot Co. 42 10 US 10US. Width is good, but too long. The creasing gets weird and I don’t reach for these often due to the blake stitch being bunched up in one spot. I thought sizing up by half and switching to thick wool socks would be okay, but it changed the fit considerably and not in a good direction. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Rm Williams Craftsman 9G 9G. The width and toe taper were much more comfortable for me than the Macquarie. Length and heels felt the same, just way more room in the forefoot. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Rm Williams Macquarie 9G 9G. Break in was a real demon with these. They were a bit narrow and the toe taper too severe. My feet has visibly stretched out the yearling leather, but now they are pretty darn comfortable. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Rm Williams Stockman 8.5G 8.5G. The sales associate recommended to size down by half compared to craftsman and Macquarie. I totally agree. The length, width, and heels all felt very comfortable at half size down. I would say that it is comfortable right out of the box. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Rm Williams Turnout 9G 9G. Similar to the craftsman, but with a slightly different toe. I did not feel that different in the length, width, or heels compared to the craftsman. Only tried on in store and with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Samuel Hubbard Fast 10D 10D - Super comfy with mid to thin socks
9.5 Wide Samuel Hubbard Re-Boot 9.5 9.5 Wide - Super roomy - a bit too wide but comfortable with thick socks
9.5 Wide Superga Canvas Sneakers 43 EU 43 - good length. narrow in ball.
9.5 Wide Trickers 4497 8.5 UK 8.5UK - Left foot OK but right foot pinkie toe gets pinched - should have taken a 9UK as recommended by Trickers
9.5 Wide Trickers W2298 8.5 UK 8.5UK Fitting 5 - Very well fitting. Slight heel slip on first few wears but once the backstay breaks in the foot no longer moves. Also used a tongue pad for the facings. Relatively flat last, with very little arch support, medium instep and a round, roomy toe box. Cannot size down for thin socks. The toe box will be too snug.
9.5 Wide Trickers W2298 9 UK 9UK - Very roomy - best with thick socks or Pedag insoles
9.5 Wide Truman 10D 10D. The instep is snug, but not uncomfortable. The width is good, generous even, but it is a bit long. The footbed is uncomfortable, so I haven’t worn these that much. Just a bit big all around, so they are not my go-to pair. Worn with Costco wool socks.
9.5 Wide Truman C-55 10D 10D, really narrow with this last
9.5 Wide Truman P-79 9D 9D works with thin thin socks.
9.5 Wide Truman P-79 9.5D 9.5D better with thick socks
9.5 Wide Viberg 1004 Cantilever 9.5D 9.5D - The 9.5D is definitely recommended for thick winter-weight socks because of the tight instep. Heel fits well albeit slightly roomy. In a 9D, the instep would be too tight - but with thin socks a 9D would be fine. Tongue pad installed for aesthetic purposes (having thin ankles sucks). Very comfortable last. Can size down to 9D comfortably.
9.5 Wide Viberg 1035 8.5 8.5 - nice and snug overall in thin socks. too narrow in ball. would need a 9, or 8.5 wider size. didn't buy.
9.5 Wide Viberg 2020 9 9 - too narrow in forefoot. Good length, good waist and snug heel with thin socks. Would stay this size, but go wider.
9.5 Wide Viberg 2030 9D 9D - Fits okay, but looks long and awkward because of the skinny ankles and low instep. I have a pair of shoes on 2030 in 8.5D for summer wear, but I would have to size up to 9D to wear with thick socks. Probably won't buy this last again. Good in the heel, arch and instep. Snug in the toes and just generally looks long. Can size down 8.5D for use with thin socks.
9.5 Wide Viberg 2030 9 9, Vibergs are too narrow
9.5 Wide Viberg 2030 9 9 - Good width in ball, but too narrow in toes to fill out otherwise roomy fit with insole. Heel is really wide. Would like to try new 8.5 wide last.
9.5 Wide Viberg 2040 9D 9D - Fits great. Looks workbooty but the proportions are perfect. Snug in the heel, instep and wide in the toes. Can size down 8.5D for use with thin socks.
9.5 Wide Wesco Mp95 9.5D 9.5D - Good in ball of foot. Will get relasted eventually in 9D or 9E because these are a bit long and roomy, but this works well enough.
9.5 Wide Wolverine 1000 Miles 9D 9D, because CXL and Essex leather stretches, or else I would def need 9E.
9.5 Wide Wolverine 1k Centennial 9D 9D - Very comfortable with room for heavier socks

10D Dayton 11337 9 9 \- Narrow at the ball, but I think they would have fit well if I had continued breaking them in. Supposedly very similar to Viberg 2030, but mine definitely felt different.
10D Dayton Service 9.5D 9.5D - I thought these were too small for me but after around 40 hours they fit pretty well. Definitely not too tight anymore. The last is long and slim though, so be prepared for that, especially if your foot is wider in the toe box area.
10D Dayton Service 9E 9E
10D Edward Green 64 9E UK UK 9E \- Really good, close fit. My instep makes the facings a bit farther apart then I’d like when I wear my regular boot socks, but everywhere else is good. Dress socks bring the facings closer. Both types of socks are quite comfortable.
10D Enzo Bonafe 363mod 9E UK 9E UK

10D Enzo Bonafe 804 9E UK 9E UK is slightly big, 8.5UK is good
10D Grant Stone Leo 9.5D 9.5D \- Pretty good fit. One of my pairs fits really tightly over the ball of my left foot, but my other pair is more comfortable.
10D Grant Stone Oliver 9.5D 9.5D \- Facings make more of a V than I’d prefer, but that’s the fault of my stupid feet. Length is great and forefoot is comfy. I'm sure the facings will close if I keep wearing them, but I very rarely wear oxfords.
10D John Lofgren 110 9.5 9.5 \- Definitely my narrowest Lofgrens. Took a couple wears to get comfortable, but now they’re great with dress socks.
10D John Lofgren 120 9 9 \- My most comfortable boots. I can wear them indefinitely. I could probably sleep in them.
10D John Lofgren Munson 9 9 \- Also very comfortable. The collapsing toe box was uncomfortable at first, but now they’re slippers.

10D Meermin Jim 9 UK UK 9 \- These were chelseas, and chelseas are hard to size for my instep. Length was good, but the combination of rock hard Meermin calf leather and my struggles with slip-ons made these pretty iffy.
10D Meermin New Rey 9 UK 9UK

10D Viberg 2045 9.5 9.5, great fit. most comfortable shoe ever. I did stretch them out with some half insoles though.
10D Viberg 2055 9 9 \- The roomiest Viberg’s I own, but not overly so. Probably my most comfortable ‘bergs.
10D Wesco Mp 1339 9.5E 9.5E \- One of my favorite lasts. Lace-ups started out a bit tight over the big toes, but feel great after a couple wears. My engineers were tight on my lumpy-ass insteps, and I actually had to get them stretched, but the length and width are awesome.
10D White's Mp 9.5D 9.5D \- Really comfortable boots. Ball area of my left foot took some breaking in, but now they’re quite comfortable.

10E

10E Alden Aberdeen 10E 10E boots fit very comfortably.
10E Alden Barrie 9.5E 9.5E fits well with boot socks. 10D seemed like it fit but caused some pain at the MTP joint.
10E Alden Plaza 10E 10E fits GREAT. Love them.
10E Alden Trubalance 9.5E 9.5E is a GREAT fit with boot socks. 9.5D was a bit too snug across the midfoot, even with thinner socks. 10D had too much heel slip.
10E Allen Edmonds 1943 10.5E 10.5E. Just went through an extensive blinded fitting to make sure my order for a natural shell Cornwallis was perfect with a knowledgeable AE store manager. The fit is generous and comfortable.
10E Allen Edmonds 201 10E 10E are a touch long; likely 9.5E would be fine. I only have this last in double monks though.
10E Allen Edmonds 65 10E Was sized 10E originally, but it's a touch long. Probably really a 9.5 EEE or E. The incorrect size makes my Park Avenues crease weirdly. Strands look great. I have such a good patina on them I'll still wear them at the wrongish size.
10E Buday Frakno 9F UK UK 9 fits well. Snug, but in the good way. No toe issues.
10E Buttero Tanino 42F EU EU 42 fits well, had to loosen the laces a bit for width, but length is perfect. You really do need to size down one. (usually, EU 43=UK9=US10, but not for Buttero)
10E Carmina Oscar 9 UK UK 9 has an EXCELLENT fit.
10E Enzo Bonafe 062 9.5 UK UK 9.5 is necessary for toe room. UK 9 fits ok with thinnest socks except for pressure on the right pinky toe due to the aggressive taper of the toebox.
10E Enzo Bonafe 363mod 9F UK UK 9 fits well with medium socks. Thicker socks are comfortable, but the pinky toes barely contact the upper. Very good fit.
10E Enzo Bonafe 74945 9F UK UK 9 fits great with thinner socks. Medium thickness socks make it a bit tight and the pinky toe gets pressed on my right foot. Lasted shoe trees helped here.
10E Enzo Bonafe 946 9F UK UK 9 fits EXCELLENT with thinner socks. High instep is GREAT. Facings on cordovan wholecuts almost completely close!
10E Epaulet Trainers 10F US US 10 fits well -- loosening the lacing fixes any width issues. I have both GAT and runner models, but not the tennis/stan smith knockoffs.
10E Meermin Hiro 9 UK UK 9 in shell was too constricting in width. Sold.
10E Rancourt 115 10E 10E fits well around the toes but the instep is low and it is snug around the ankle. I can't wear balmorals in this last. My PTB fits fine but if my volume/instep was higher it wouldn't fit. I'm happy with them but the last is definitely for the lower volume/instep crowd.
10E Rider Boot Co 42 10.5D My 10.5D is a bit long; should have gone with 10 EE --- I over-stressed the EE / E vs 10.5/10 debate. Sold the boot.
10E Trickers 4444 9 UK UK 9 in unlined suede is snug but good. Toes have almost no room but since it's unlined suede it feels fine.
10E Trickers 4497 9 UK UK 9 in cordovan fits well.
10E Viberg 1035 9F Derby in 9 fits well except for a slight pinky toe pressure with thicker socks, none with thinner socks. Kudu boot in 9.5 fits well with a thicker sock.
10E Viberg 110 9.5 9.5 is super roomy; pretty sure 9 would be better. With super thick socks, 9.5 fits OK. Not worth selling the boot ;)
10E Viberg 2030 9.5 9.5 snugly for GYW burgundy horsehide and more loosely for stitchdown roughout; I will stick with 9.5.
10E Viberg 2040 9.5 9.5 is quite roomy but fits well with thick socks; 9 would probably be fine.
10E Viberg 40218 9 9 in suede is snug enough to hold the slipper on and breathe well; I can put on 8.5 but my foot stretches it in all directions and distorts the shape while also seeming too large for the outsole. After 2 months of wear, the suede has stretched to slightly looser fit but still fits well; satisfied with the choice.

10 Wide Crockett & Jones, 228 9 UK UK 9. Very roomy, need to wear thick socks. Not all that wide at the ball though, but comfortable enough.
10 Wide Crockett & Jones, 335 9 UK UK 9. Painful break in, especially at the instep, but now quite comfortable with thin/medium socks.

10 Wide Epaulet Trainers 10F US US 10 fits well -- loosening the lacing fixes any width issues. I have GATs, tennis trainers and runner models -- the runner is the tightest fit imo.
10 Wide Junkard, Nh 43 EU EU 43. The NH last is effectively an E width, and sold as such by Junkard. Perfect for me with any type of socks. My favorite so far.
10 Wide Junkard, Sc 43 EU EU 43. Too tight at the widest part. Very short and narrow toebox, which doesn't bother me but could be a problem for others.
10 Wide Meermin Hiro 9 UK UK 9 in shell was too constricting in width. Sold.
10 Wide Meermin, Rui 9 UK UK9. Very roomy and comfortable. Despite the thick Rocado shell and Meermins reputation these were comfortable from the start.
10 Wide Oak Street Bootmakers, Lakeshore 10D US US 10D. Stretchy CXL makes these reasonably comfortable to wear with thick/medium socks, but the bulge at the ball makes it clear that it's too narrow at the widest part for my stupid feet.
10 Wide Rancourt 115 10E 10E fits well around the toes but the instep is low and it is snug around the ankle. I can't wear balmorals in this last. My PTB fits fine but if my volume/instep was higher it wouldn't fit. I'm happy with them but the last is definitely for the lower volume/instep crowd.

10 Wide Trickers 4497 9 UK UK 9 in cordovan fits well.
10 Wide Truman 10EE US US 10EE. Very, very comfortable but a bit too roomy, even with thick socks. Now trying one pair with insoles, which seems to hit the sweet spot. May be tempted to try a 9.5EE next time.
10 Wide Viberg 1035 9F Derby in 9 fits well except for a slight pinky toe pressure with thicker socks, none with thinner socks. Kudu boot in 9.5 fits well with a thicker sock.

10 Wide Wolverine 1000 Miles 9.5D US US 9.5D. Way too tight. Should have gone for 10D (wide widths not available in Europe) Remarkably comfortable though, because of the thin and very stretchy CXL they fit like socks.

They were more like a solid C or B+ in width across the forefoot.

10.5D Lucchese Cowboy And Roper Last In 11d 10.5 In their cowboy boots with a walking heel and their Chelsea boots. My first time buying cowboy boots and although the sales man told me I was a 10.5 I decided to pick up their smooth vamp goat skin boots and black suede Chelsea's because of a winter sale. I could only get the instep tight enough by using Darn tough Hunter Socks but the goat skin is so soft that I will have to get them relasted in 10.5D and wouldn't mind paying the 250 required to do so although I should've taken up the free re-lasting opportunity at the time I bought them. The Chelsea's feel great although I guess they would fit more like ropers if I got them in 10.5 instead of the bit of room i have across the instep both of them.

10.5D Viberg 2030 10 10 - Good fit. Boot socks. I recently received these is shell and I'm still breaking them in. I have room for my toes, but my foot isn’t rattling around. The ball of my foot is at the widest part of the boot. I could wear these with my really thick winter socks if I wanted to. I think I could also safely do this last in in 9.5, but I'm not trying to wear my boots as tight as possible.

10.5 Narrow

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
10.5 Narrow Alden Barrie 10B 10B/D but 10C/E fits more like Viberg 2030 10 since that's an E last.
10.5 Narrow Alden Trubalance 10B 10 B/D in shell Indy boots. Quite spacious, a bit more than I prefer at the heel but no heel slip. My feet probably sit a little back from where the ball would ideally be because of the low instep but they're still not too bad. Ended up selling my Aldens in Trubalance because of the aforementioned low instep. Average fit.
10.5 Narrow Alden Van 10.5B 10.5 B/D in shell LHS. Comfy all around except for tightness at the instep. Better than the Rancourt 114 but a very similar story. Average fit.
10.5 Narrow Allen Edmonds 333 10.5C 10.5C, runs a bit long but it goes with the elongated look and I've got plenty of wiggle room. Good fit.
10.5 Narrow Allen Edmonds 5 10.5C 10.5C, a little voluminous but still fits alright. Again, lots of wiggle room. Good fit, not as good as 333.
10.5 Narrow C&J 240 10.5D US 10.5D US
10.5 Narrow Crockett & Jones 238 9.5E UK 9.5E UK, fits very well. Little tight across instep at first but it's fantastic all around after break-in (chelsea boots, by the way). Excellent fit.
10.5 Narrow Crockett & Jones 240 10.5C 10.5C, better fit than the AEs. No heel slippage, roomy around the forefoot. Very good fit.
10.5 Narrow Dayton Service/Parade Boot 10E 10E fits exactly the same as Viberg 2030. 2030 was modified from Dayton's last which was a Canadian military last likely obtained by the British.
10.5 Narrow Enzo Bonafe 173 9.5F UK 9.5F UK in open-laced boots (try-on pair from Solegarb). Fit was somewhat similar to Alden Trubalance but lower in the instep with a similarly spacious heel. Low instep was tight close to the forefoot and made the boot quite uncomfortable. Length was similarly too generous and the heel to ball fit and fit at the arch were a bit off. Length and openness at heel caused a good amount of heel slip while walking. Would work better for someone with a flatter, broader foot. Poor fit.
10.5 Narrow Enzo Bonafe 363mod 9.5G UK 9.5G UK with tongue pads on shell LWBs works quite well. I don't think that I could accommodate the drop in length going to a 9UK as the fit is quite good lengthwise, but far too open at the instep. I feel this is more a consequence of my skinny ankles as the pushback by the tongue pads does a good job of correcting this. Good fit with the tongue pads.
10.5 Narrow Enzo Bonafe 74945 9.5F UK 9.5F UK in open-laced hippo leather boots and worn with medium-thick boot socks. Very comfortable all around but I believe the hippo leather makes judging the last alone quite difficult. A tiny bit long but the additional support from the shaft keeps my foot from slipping at all. Heel is comfortable spacious without being overly so but again, part of this may just be the softness of the leather. Toebox strikes a very good balance between the sleekness and wiggle room. Instep is comfortable. Excellent fit (again, take it with a grain of salt given the leather).
10.5 Narrow Enzo Bonafe 946 9F UK 9F UK in open-laced shoes fit like leather socks (try-on pair from Solegarb). Fit was exceptional everywhere except I needed an extra 2-3mm at the toes for the amount of wiggle room that I like, even in a sleeker last. Made it a bit uncomfortable at the toebox. If possible, I think a 9G UK might be a better fit. Good-very good fit.
10.5 Narrow Joe Works Last 6 9.5 UK UK9.5
10.5 Narrow Meermin Rui 9.5 UK 9.5 UK in open-laced shoes. Still breaking them in (surprise, surprise) but the initial indications point towards a generous, comfortable fit. Slightly wider heel than I'd prefer but still no slip. Forefoot is probably the widest that I could comfortably accommodate and the toebox allows for plenty of wiggling. Good support at the arch and good heel to ball fit. Good fit.
10.5 Narrow Ostmo 44 EU EU44/10.5D
10.5 Narrow Rancourt & Co. 114 10.5D 10.5D or 10E, as the 10D unlined beefroll penny loafers worn sockless I have are uncomfortably tight across the instep (tighter than the Vibergs and Trumans) but comfy in the toebox and in the heel (at least partially due to CXL breaking in). Poor-average fit.
10.5 Narrow Red Wing 225 11B 11B, sized at RW store for safety toe work shoes. Little roomy at the heel but no slippage. Very comfortable with medium-thick socks. Very good fit.
10.5 Narrow Red Wing 704 10.5D 10.5D, sized at RW store for safety toe work boots. Still very tight across instep and difficult to get into (material is synthetic so no real break-in). Not a good fit.
10.5 Narrow St. Crispin's/Zonkey Boot Sailor 9F UK 9F UK, ideally would require a St. Crispin's modification to their "Fit 2" plus "Fit 5" for a bit more space at the toes/instep. Tough to get into the shoes but fantastic once on the feet. Smaller nominal size + high instep + elongated last is the perfect combination for me. Very good - excellent fit.
10.5 Narrow Truman 10.5B Sized at 10.5B after extensive contact with Vince. Slightly tight across the instep (not as much as the Vibergs, surprisingly), but excellent fit at the forefoot and heel. Still a bit of tightness at the instep on the right foot. Note that these comments are on unlined stitchdown boots and with the old last before they opened up the instep. Very good fit.
10.5 Narrow Viberg 1035 10 10
10.5 Narrow Viberg 110 10B 10 but it's a legit EEE last so not ideal for narrow feet. Sizing down to accomodate the extra width is not advised.
10.5 Narrow Viberg 2030 9.5 9.5, a bit tough to get in to due to the instep, but comfortable once they're on the feet. No heel slippage. Fits quite well around the forefoot. Snug fit with thick socks but still wearable. Tightness on the instep has gone markedly after ~20 wears. Note that this is for GYW, not stitchdown. Good-very good fit.

10.5 Wide

Brannock Model & Last Tag System Source
10.5 Wide Allen Edmonds, 511g 10.5EEE 10.5EEE fits well, length is good as is instep.
10.5 Wide Allen Edmonds, 65 10EEE 10EEE, generally fine but a wide V-gap because of my instep height; 10.5EEE alleviates this but is a bit too long and I'd rather just stretch out the instep or deal with the gap.
10.5 Wide Red Wing, 8 Last, Beckmans 10D 10D was not even something I could get my foot in because of my instep and the gusseted tongue; 10EE was better but I didn't want to go through the break-in process to see if they'd end up comfortable given that the more compatible Iron Rangers are still fairly snug afterward.
10.5 Wide Red Wing, 8 Last, Blacksmiths 10D 10D surprisingly felt good, though they'd be too narrow and technically they were out of the box but not painfully so, so I imagine if I bought some and broke them in they'd be fine (plan to get some at some point).
10.5 Wide Red Wing, 8 Last, Iron Rangers 8 Red Wing's 8 Last fits me differently depending on the boot so I'll discuss them separately. With the Iron Rangers I ended up buying a 9.5EE which is a tiny bit short but manageable. The 10EE may have been the better choice, but the 9.5s have stretched out enough that they're comfortable, though break-in was pretty unpleasant.

11D Alden Truebalance 10.5E US 10.5E US - Measured at the NYC store for this size for my shell Indy's which were still uncomfortable and had too much room even with boot socks. These Indy's also had a speed-hook which ripped out and they ended up refunding me because it ripped out a second time after the factory fixed it the first time.

11D Allen Edmonds 201/65/79 Lasts 11D US 11D US - I've found the 201 to be a much shapelier last and more comfortable than the 65 last but they're both solid fits for me for oxfords. The Randolph loafer on the 79 is good as well however I find it has a little but of extra heel room but nothing to put me off from wearing my shell pair a bunch!
11D Allen Edmonds 2321 11.5D 11.5D - great fit, probably my next shoe
11D Allen Edmonds 5 Last 11d 11EEE try on in store. I used to wear this last heavily when I was fatter at 11eee. A relatively neutral fit for me.
11D Allen Edmonds 511 12D 12D - weird fit, but I wear them all the time anyway, probably too long and too narrow, so my foot stretched out the toebox sideways a ton. They think I should go to 11.5E.

11D Carmina 10.5 UK Inca last, 10.5 UK, shell double monkstrap. These feel about as close to what I could imagine a bespoke shoe feeling as anything. They fit better than both my first and second pair of Zeb MTM. Absolutely shocking how nicely they hug my mid foot, give my toes just a small bit of breathing space - enough to spread my toes a little. And almost no collar gape.
11D Carmina 10.5 UK Xim last, 10.5 UK. These are unlined penny loafers and with a thin sock fit like a glove with nominal collar gape and no feeling of excessive material above my foot. My 4th toe SLIGHTLY touches, but there's no feeling of pressure and it doesn't get rubbed raw.
11D Carmina 10.5 UK Rain last, 10.5 UK, shell wholecut oxford. Similar fit to the Inca above, but a bit more excess volume in the forefoot. I imagine once I wear them more I may have to put in a tongue pad up there right behind my toes. Slightly more collar gape but not much, and fits my toes exactly as well as the Inca shell monks.
11D Carmina 10.5 UK Rain last, 10.5 UK, lizard skin chukka boot. Initial fit, the front of the shoe kind of flopped around as I walked due to there being too much volume around the lower half of my instep and toe box. I had to put two tongue pads in this boot to snug up the instep. In the forefoot, with a thinner dress sock, I still have a bit too much movement. With what I call an average dress sock, like the ones from Dapper Classics, I have only marginally more room around the toes than I would like. I probably could have bought these in a 10, but realistically I think I am just in-between sizes on them. It seems like Carmina upsizes their lizard shoes even more than their shell.
11D Carmina 11 UK Simpson last, 11 UK. Demolished my poor 4th toe. A horrifying experience. I don't think I could even wear this last unless they offered it in a wider width. Were I to go to 11.5, I would have enough space between the first 3 toes and the end of the shoe to stash away a small cat.

11D Carmina Forest 10 UK 10UK
11D Carmina Forest 10.5 UK 10.5UK (snug) The 10UK, which was recommended to me, was tight all over and unwearable. The 10.5UK fit my foot well, but caused discomfort in the front instep. Not a good last for me.

11D Crocket And Jones 325 10.5E UK 10.5E UK. Great fit. Could maybe size down a little.
11D Crockett & Jones 325 10 UK 10 UK E
11D Crockett & Jones 337/363 Lasts \[Oxfords\] 10E UK 10E UK - Had full lace closure upon initial try-on with extra space along the instep and heel. All sorts of pain when wearing so they unfortunately got sold.
11D Crockett & Jones 348 Last \[Loafer\] 10E UK 10E UK - One of my first 'upscale' GYW purchases which I enjoyed. A little extra heel room but no slippage issues with the loafer.
11D Edward Green 38 EU 389 last, 11E UK, Polperro slipper - unlined suede. These are even softer than the Meermin alicante suede and it's a blessing because my 4th and 5th toes bulge a LOT. After a full day of wear, they both feel slightly numb, but not raw or irritated, thus these land at the bottom of the "fits well" spectrum for me. Otherwise, these shoes actually hug my mid-foot and have almost no collar gape, which is fantastic.
11D Edward Green 18 184 last, Ventnor penny loafer, tried in both 10.5E and 11E UK. In both shoes, my 4th toe was crushed. Due to the structured toe and my 4th toe landing at the edge of that, it was awful. The 11 was no better than the 10.5, and the rest of the fit was great. I think a 10.5F would probably have fit great as there was enough snugness in the mid-foot to tolerate going up a width without feeling floppy.
11D Edward Green 606/82 Lasts 10E UK 10E UK - Here I'm breaking the mold of 'conventional' sizing for EG but have found this to be the best fit for my foot. Supportive fit all around with some space to close on the instep once they break-in. Very close to my favorite fit at the moment
11D Edward Green 82/888 10.5E UK 10.5E UK - Followed standard UK-->US sizing convention for EG on 2 pairs of Galways I own. Soft \[utah\] leather version stretched out all the way so I get full closure all the way up the boots, while the country calf still has some space to close on instep. They're pretty good when using a very thick boot sock to take up the extra space from them basically being a half size too big. A pair of oxfords on 888 I once had were incredibly uncomfortable and had just enough extra room all the way around to not be huge but big enough to cause my feet all sorts of issues.
11D Enzo Bonafe 360mod 10.5 UK 10.5UK
11D Enzo Bonafe 360mod 10.5 UK 10.5UK. The 10UK was a little snug, should have been wearable, but remained uncomfortable over my metatarsal even after break in.

11D Gaziano Girling Dg70/Mh71/Tg73 Lasts 10.5E UK 10.5E UK - Arguably the best fit that I have at the moment. The shoes are closely fitted and start with a little instep room but when broken in I get full closure with a supportive fit.
11D General Fit Issues 4 Aside from the fit issues mentioned above, I often have extreme collar gape on loafers due to my lateral ankle thinness. I am extremely sensitive to pressure on the 4th toe, and often find myself struggling to account for it without going into a shoe that is too long for the other 4 toes.
11D Grant Stone 11.5D Alexander last, 11.5D ivory suede penny loafer. Basically the same notes as the Rancourts.
11D Grant Stone 11.5D US Alexander last, 11.5D US shell penny loafer. Same as the Alden above, just way too big.
11D Grant Stone Leo 10.5D 10.5D
11D Grant Stone Leo 10.5D 10.5D (almost snug everywhere with thin socks, lots of room in the toes. Probably could have gone down to 10.5C.)
11D Grant Stone Leo 11d 10.5D Similar to Barrie, though I haven't actually tried the 10.5D. The heel seems a bit narrower, which can irritate my left heel, but fine otherwise.
11D Grenson 201 11D 11D - great fit
11D Grenson 201 11D 11D - too tight around the bottom of the laces; possibly due to stiffer leather than the Archie I tried
11D Helm 11D 11D
11D Helm Mueller 10.5D 10.5D (snug with extra room in forefoot. Just a step down in comfort for me from the Zind)
11D Helm Zind 10.5 10.5 (snug similar to the 55 last, with less length in the toes; I have no doubt these would have been supremely comfortable had I bought them)
11D J Fitzpatrick Lpb Last \[Oxford\] 10E UK 10E UK - I actually loved these shoes at first (and very highly recommend his brand) but this last has a voluminous instep. Once they broke in I got full lace closure with extra space all around the instep and heel so my foot basically slid around a little when wearing dress socks. They'd be a perfect fit in 9.5 UK sizing for my feet.
11D John Lobb 7000/8000 Lasts 10E UK 10E UK - Depending on the number of eyelets I run into some issues with having a little too much room in the instep but it's a great fit for me so that's why they're in my rotation.

11D Loake Capitol 10F 10F (slightly short on my smaller toes because of the chiseled shape and ample room in the waist. Put in a very slim insert and they fit well with thin socks.)
11D Marsell 44 EU 44
11D Marsell 44 EU 44. Good fit. Maybe a little roomy.
11D Meermin 11.5D Ron last, 11.5D, unlined penny loafer. Slightly snug with socks, slightly loose without, but not annoyingly so. I get a bit of rub on the inside of my big toe as well as toe 4, but since they're alicante suede and super soft, it isn't anything irritating.
11D Meermin 11.5 Hiro last, 11.5, suede double monkstrap. I had to put a tongue pad in these just at the edge of the toe box to pad up above my front instep. The toe box fit is slightly more generous than the Ron loafers which is great because these are a socks-only shoe for me, and fit my toe box nearly perfectly with dress socks. They have an iffy amount of collar gape unfortunately.

11D New Balance \[Casual Use Only\] 11.5D US 11.5D US - use with thinner casual/dress socks; would probably need 12 for 'gym' socks.

11D Quoddy 11.5D My current pair is 11.5D and they're a bit long but fit comfortably. I'd recommend TTS (so 11D)
11D Quoddy Bluchers 10.5D 10.5D (fits well everywhere but there is some tightness in the toes with no-show socks. They may loosen up a bit, but I may have needed the 10.5E.)
11D Racourt Slippers 11D 11D. Good fit.
11D Rancourt 80 EU 800 last, 11.5D cxl beef roll penny loafer. A bit floppy for my taste without socks, with socks it's just shy of perfect. More collar gape than my Carmina loafers but not as bad as Aldens.
11D Rancourt 114 10.5D 10.5D
11D Rancourt 2592 11d 11 In contrast to the 114, the toes here are pretty snug, but not uncomfortably so, and a decent fit otherwise.
11D Rancourt 8 10.5D 10.5D (bought these used, fits my foot shape very well in cxl. If bought new in a different leather, I might take the 10.5E)
11D Red Wing 210 11 11
11D Red Wing 23 10.5 10.5
11D Red Wing 23 10.5D 10.5D.
11D Red Wing 326 11D 11D. Noticeably more snug around the ball area than my iron rangers that are supposed to be 0.5 smaller. No clue where my toes are in them as the leather is so thick I can't feel through it, but they feel great.
11D Red Wing 45 10.5D 10.5D. Never been happy with how these fit. The 1907s come from factory with a thin footbed. With it they were too tight, without it they feel like clogs. I prob should have gone with an 11D and the footbed, but these were my first red wings and I read too much on the internet about buying them snug and beating them into shape with your feet.
11D Red Wing 50 11D 11D. These are the 4418 steel toe logger boots wth Thinsulate lining. I tried the 218, which is on the same last, but non-steel toe and no insulation, before special ordering the 4418 in 10.5D. This turned out to be a mistake. I think due to the high heel I was sliding into the steel toe box. I was able to use the work boot comfort guarantee to swap them for 0.5 larger. Steel toe still catches the side of my big toes.
11D Red Wing 8 10D 10D feels OK, but too wide in toes, and big toe dangerously close to front
11D Red Wing 8 10.5D 10.5D. Beckmans feel a hair tighter around my forefoot than Iron Rangers, but is could be due to them being newer.
11D Red Wing 8 11D 11D was too large, 10.5D was too narrow through the arch/heel
11D Red Wing 8 10.5D 10.5D (fits okay with an insert and medium to thin socks. My feet don't really have the volume for the last.)

11D Tricker's 5402r 10 UK 10UK (narrower than Stow last, 10.5 may have worked better with thicker socks, at least with shell version)
11D Trickers 11 UK Stow boot, 11UK. Decent but needed a 10.5, far too much front-of-foot volume overall and even in 10.5 would have needed pads to feel right.
11D Trickers 11 UK Bourton shoe, 11UK. Fit like a clown shoe lol. Definitely needed a 10, with some pads.
11D Trickers 11 UK Slipper, 11UK. Needed an 11.5, these things run really small. An 11.5 would likely have been a glorious fit though as the 11 was only barely too tight but in a fairly uniform way across my problem areas such that going up half a size should work.

11D Viberg 20 2050 last, suede chelsea boot. Smidge snug at the 4th and 5th toe, but within tolerance and would stretch easily. I was impressed with the fit on these and really liked the snug mid-foot that I got. Sadly they aren't my style (hence them being for sale).
11D Viberg 20 2030 last, natty cxl service boot. Too wide all the way across the front of my foot including right behind my toes which is pretty unusual for me, but when laced the rest of the fit was pretty decent.

11D Viberg 2030 10.5 10.5 (I think the fit would have been good, but the heel counters on the boots I had were so aggressive as to be unbearable)
11D Viberg 2030 10 10 (these are snug, and may or may not have enough room for my toes. We will see as they break in, but signs are positive. They have an unstructured cap toe in cxl, so I'm expecting them to fit well. Will update in a few months)
11D Viberg 2030 10.5 10.5 - Had to use thick boot socks but they were really comfortable. If you don't want to have to use thick ones I may argue you could size down a full size.
11D Viberg 2045 10.5 10.5, I love wearing with my thickest darn tough boot socks. They feel great and would not want to size down a half, even though I may have been able to.
11D Wesco 1339 11D 11D, (low toe height until broken in)
11D White's 55 10.5C 10.5C (snug when new, should be perfect once the arch breaks in)
11D White's Semi Dress 10.5D 10.5D. Looser around fore foot than my Red Wings and Aldens. Brand new but I'm certain right now these are my size.

11D Wolverine 1000 Mile 10.5d 10.5D I don't know the lasts here, but I've tried these on a couple times and 10.5D seems right for me.
11D Yuketen 11D 11D (I seem to have an issue with Leon footwear--10.5 is too short, 11 slightly too roomy at heel)
11D Yuketen Charlie Or Alan 11.5D 11.5D
11D Yuketen Charlie Or Alan 11.5D 11.5D. The 11D fits well in length and are wearable, but feels too narrow. The laces don't close up nearly enough. I'd perhaps try and 11E if I were buying again.

11.5D Dayton 11377 10.5E 10.5 E. Good fit. A little roomy around heel and plenty of room in front of toes. Boots snug around the ankle.
11.5D Dayton 11377 10.5E 10.5 E, parade boots, latigo. Good fit with thin socks, but snug around the toes with thicker socks. Snug around the ankle.
11.5D Enzo Bonafe 173 10.5 UK 10.5UK
11.5D Grant Stone Leo 11D 11D. Basically identical to Michail. Sort of middle-of-the road last as far as volume goes, like Alden's Barrie. On their boots, the ankle is pretty high volume. Of the brands I have experience with (Alden, Grant Stone, Red Wing, Dayton, Rancourt), the Grant Stone boots were the roomiest, and I could lace them to the point where the facings touched around the ankle without feeling snug. I would say Red Wing and Dayton are at the other end of the spectrum and work much better for me.
11.5D Grant Stone Leo 11D 11D, plain to blucher, veg tan. Basically identical to Michail, but had some pinky toe pinching. I've also tried on their boots, and the ankle is pretty high volume. I could lace them to the point where the facings touched around the ankle without feeling snug.

11.5D J.C. Cole 11 11 is perfect length, and seems like a good match between widest part of my feet and the widest part of the shoe, but I felt like the ball of my foot lined up with the "bottom" of the forefoot a little better in the 11.5. I went with the 11 and after break in it's a really good fit.
11.5D J.C. Cole 11 11, plain toe blucher, calf. Pretty good, a little extra volume at the ball.

11.5D Nike Flyknit Racer 12F US US12 fit nice with sport socks
11.5D Quoddy 11 11
11.5D Quoddy Loafers 11D 11D with thin socks or sockless. Works well.
11.5D R.M. Williams B543 10.5G 10.5 G works, (1) but I'm not sure my square-ish forefoot works well with the taper of this last, and (2) The padded sockliner in the comfort version eats up a lot of volume, so that the comfort version of these are a little snug in the toebox. Boots snug around the ankle.
11.5D Rancourt & Co 114 11D 11 D
11.5D Rancourt 800 11.5D 11.5D. Good fit - can wear with socks without being too snug or without socks without heel slip.
11.5D Rancourt 800 11.5D 11.5D, camp mocs, unlined kudu. Good fit - can wear with socks without being too snug or without socks without heel slip.
11.5D Rancourt John 11.5D 11.5D works, but probably should be a 12D. The tongue seam is right at the bend of my instep and causes some issues, and could use some more toe room. The ankle volume on the John boots is medium.
11.5D Rancourt John 11.5D 11.5D, John boots, calf. I should probably be a 12D for both length & width. The ankle volume on the John boots is medium.
11.5D Red Wing 210 11.5 11.5
11.5D Red Wing 210 11D 11D was too short, but instep was ok. I assume 11.5 would work.
11.5D Red Wing 210 11D 11D, Postman, pebbled leather. Too small; I assume 11.5 would work.
11.5D Red Wing 224 11D 11D, but doesn't really work for me - too long and instep tightness.
11.5D Red Wing 224 11D 11D, Beckman chukka, waxed nubuck. Didn't really work for me due to instep tightness.
11.5D Red Wing 224 11D 11D, but would not recommend it. I bought a pair of Beckman Oxfords in this size that were on the uncomfortable side of snug for a while. They did eventually break in somewhat, however they can pinch if I flex my toes too much. The fit probably would have been better on 11.5D.

11.5D Rm Williams B543 10.5G 10.5G (UK)
11.5D Russell Moccasin 11D 11D (recommended based on tracings), double vamp bird shooters, "water-proof chrome leather". Very roomy in the forefoot. I added a thin insert, and wear my thickest socks with these. Beyond being roomy, the shape provides lots of room for the pinky toes - more than any other last I've tried, which makes them very nice to walk in.

11.5D Vass P2 44.5 EU 44.5, 1085 chukka, calf. Snug around forefoot, but not toes.
11.5D Viberg 1035 11 11 (Have Engineer and Service Boots)
11.5D Viberg 1035 10.5 10.5, service boots, horse butt Chromexcel, unstructured. Pretty roomy at the ball - too much volume for medium socks, but if I wear thick socks or add a sockliner to take up space around the forefoot, toes get squished. 11 would be better. Snug enough around the ankle.
11.5D Viberg 1035 11 11
11.5D Viberg 2030 11 11
11.5D Viberg 2030 11 11, service boots, nubuck, structured cap toe. Toe pinching, seemed too short.

11.5 Narrow Grant Stone, Alexander 10.5D 10.5D - Width is spot on, but length is slightly short. They're still quite comfortable with thin socks and I've had no trouble wearing on several all day outings and weddings.
11.5 Narrow L.L. Bean Jackman Moc 11.5D 11.5D - Loose fit. They work with thin socks and are comfortable enough, but they really need thick socks to fit perfectly.
11.5 Narrow Nisolo 11D (they don't give details on lasts) 11 D, with SuperFeet DELUX insoles (size large). The length of the shoes is good, but they are on a relatively high-volume last, so I need the insoles to prevent heel slippage.
11.5 Narrow Rancourt, 114 11B 11B - Tight fit, but plan to wear without socks and I am anticipating slight stretch according to reviews.
11.5 Narrow Redwing, 8 11D 11D - Ok fit, 10.5 felt too short and slightly too tight. 11 feels slightly too long, but the width seemed better. Have had no trouble breaking them in while wearing thick sock.

14D Thorogood Moc Toe, 13d 13EE Possibly too narrow. I've ordered a 13EE and 14D to see if it fits better. I have a feeling these will stretch out width-wise due to the leather softness.
