Sizing + Last

Sizing guidance is general in nature as every foot is different, but we have a few ways to help identify the best size for you. Our customers size down into our boots. From typical sneaker sizing, it is usually 1 full size down. For example, if you take a sneaker size 10 across all sneakers you own, you're most likely going to be a 9 in our boots. Medium width and volume will be size 9, wider width and higher volume will be a 9.5 in this example. Sizing discussions are best had prior to order placement.

602M Last

The 602M last is primarily used for Allen and Richmond production however there will be some moc-toe styles built on it as well. Its features include a roomy fit along with a natural contour to your instep. Along with this comes a slight bit of extra room in that smaller toe region than a traditional D width last.

Parkhurst Old 602 (2020-2023) - True to size. If narrower feet, lower instep, skinny ankles or lower volume feet in general, a half size down may apply.

Brannock - Half size down if D/regular width and volume, full size if narrower, lower volume foot. For example, if you are a size 10C on the Brannock, then a size 9 in our boots would fit best. 

Wide Width's - Take your normal wide width numerical size for E and EE. EEE will not fit.

Alden Barrie or Trubalance - True to size.

Allen Edmond's - True to size if D width. Lower volume/narrower widths may need to go down a half size.

Red Wing - True to size.

Thursday Boot - True to size if D width. Lower volume/narrower widths may need to go down a half size.

Nike - Full size down

New Balance - Full size down.

Adidas - Full size down.

618 Last

This is our newest last designed first for our Stitch-down-constructed boots. The 618 draws elements from both the 602 and original 18 lasts while incorporating some new design aspects. It features a bit more tapered heel than the 602, a slight point to the toe and a lower volume than the 602 last. Additionally, the peak width on this last at Brannock is just over a single E, but not touching a double E.

Brannock - Half size down. If you're a 10D Brannock or slightly over a D width, go with size 9.5 in the 618 last. If you measure a single E width, more towards a single E width or prefer a slight bit of extra room without a drastic length increase, we suggest going with your Brannock size. In this example, a size 10. If you are a narrow width or low volume foot, we suggest going a full size down from your Brannock measurement. So if you are a size 10C or 10B, then a size 9 in our boots would be our initial suggestion.

Parkhurst 602M - Same size if medium/average volume, width and instep height. If you have a higher volume foot, or a higher instep, size up a half size into the 618.

Alden Barrie and Trubalance - True to size if D width. 

Red Wing No. 8 - True to size if D width. 

Thursday Boot - True to size if D width. Lower volume/narrower widths may need to go down a half size.

Allen Edmond's - True to size if D width. Lower volume/narrower widths may need to go down a half size.

Nike - Full size down if standard/medium width, half size down if width is slightly wider.

Adidas - Full size down if standard/medium width, half size down if width is slightly wider.

New Balance - Full size down if standard/medium width, half size down if width is slightly wider.
