    Kangaroo is like leather, cordovan is like wood. Maybe someday, you'll be lucky enough to have both in the same boot.

      Kind of surprised these are still around at $420.
      They're a size 5 in CCP and they have some wear on the heel but that leather looks pretty amazing to me.

            Yea they're kinda nice.............does anyone know the seller?
            I might be interested, I wear a 7 to 7.5 in US Sizing, so if CCP is two sizes bigger these might fit me.
            Just dont wanna buy any boots that's going to give me foot pain though. I've had enough of that in life already...............

              My derbies are an 8 and I usually wear a 10.5 in US sizes but I have pretty narrow feet.
              I'm not familiar with the seller but you may want to drop him a line and ask for outsole measurements. I'm not sure how much variation occurs in sizing between different seasons

                i dont think the width is so much of an issue, my feet is kinda medium width, but i have high arch/ instep. I just dont wanna buy and be stuck with something that doesn't fit. ..........not particularly good at reselling stuff. I have a ton of crap i need to sell and cant be bothered to Ebay them.
                I will contact him in the morning for the measurements................

                  Keep in mind the pointed toe...that will add some length that your piggies can't always squeeze into.
                  I got mine on Ebay and was scared that they wouldn't fit but I just knew that too big would be just as disastrous. They were definitely not the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn but they have broken in somewhat. Or they have broken me in. I'm not sure which.

                  As mentioned many times before, there may be some pain involved but it's an exquisite pain. It never slips your mind that you're wearing them.

                    CCP = pain!
                    If the shoes are new and not made of kangaroo or the newer softer horse there will be pain included in the price. I have worn my red derbys one day and must rest one day...
                    Boots fit a bit too big but I don't dare to size down bc I fear that they will break my foot...

                        zamb, i think you need a 6. these will be too small for you. plus, they're kinda ugly.
                        Did you get and like the larger dick?

                          Ok, I'll take your word for it and pass, you would know more than i do.
                          id rather something slightly bigger than too tight.
                          other than the heel/ sole being a bit chunky, I think they're cool
                          for what I would do with them ugly is fine..............
