    I'd say so, somewhere between a US 9-9.5, not sure how much they are going to stretch as this is my first experience with Guidi.

    I'm a true US 8-8.5. I will report back when the other pair show up.

      Received a pair of tall back zip (baby calf) today. Will undoubtedly need some getting used to if working at all. Perhaps I've just become too accustomed to laces and the rough look of my combats...

        Mandrup - your Guidi's are gorgeous. What shaft height are they and how soft are they in baby calf?

          The shaft is 35 cm and the leather is extremely soft.

          EDIT: added another shot from behind.

            ^ do you mind my asking what the circumference at the top is and if you found them hard to zip closed?

              The circumference is 37 cm and my calves are 34 cm so I don't find them hard to zip at all.

                ^The feeling is different from lace ups - but these are so special - the leather folds in front and the industrial look of the zip at the back make them the ultimate leather "sock". They look sooo very comfortable. Congrats!

                  Heh thank you. They are indeed the most comfortable pair of shoes/boots I have ever worn. Leather sock seems very much to the point.

                      Heirloom - I think when you do a custom order you can ask for the circumference you need. Also - a good shoe repair (skomakare) who is experienced with riding boots can stretch them for you.

                            Size 41 and that's one up for me. I tried a pair of sidezips in 42 (reverse something) in Murkudis a month ago and wasn't even able to zip it all the way up.

                              Great boots, enjoy them.

                              I ordered a pair of donkey backzips in 43.5 through marco but he said they don't have half sizes available... hopefully a 44 won't be too big.
