After having spent over a year at the cobblers for nothing, I cancelled the customising project for now since I want to wear them (!) Added a pair of random laces for fun.
Although the Urban Shepherd Team recommended EU44 to me, I went with EU45 since I want to wear them with orthodic insoles. Having only worn these for a couple of hours with the standard insole, the team is right: EU44 would probably be a better fit. Lacing them currently loose for break-in and wearing thin socks. Thicker socks definitely help, but still some wiggle room -25.05.25
I bought the boots at the end of January 2024 and received them beginning of March 2024. I have a customising vision in mind with a cobbler, but did not have time for realising said vision. I asked the boots back on 22.05.2025 since I want to wear them.
