    If I wear a 9D in #405 Indy, what size would fit me Tom?

    Sam,

    Most likely a 9D as well.

    No 12D available? 🙁
    Congrats on another great shoe.

      Thanks Dan. Sorry, only up to 11.5D. Because the Barrie last fits 1/2 size large, we’ve found that 12D isn’t a popular size for the Barrie. 11.5D will satisfy your typical 12D man.

      Aloha,

    Hi Tom,

    If I wear size 6D on the Plaza last, does this mean I would have to wear size 5.5 on the Barrie?

    Ben,

    Yes, you would most likely be a 5.5D.

    Tom,

    Great looking shoes again.

    Please start up your pre-order list again.

    I’ve got money in pocket – just itching to go to you.

    I fit a 12 EE – so I’m out of luck again.

    All the best,

    I love the chromexcel version. That really suits this boot. I also like the new website, but I’m having a problem reading the comments. The gray on brown background makes it really had to see. Is this a browser issue? I’m running firefox.

    Yong,

    I am so sorry. I have been really bad on the preorders. I will try to start them up again very soon. I’ve been so preoccupied with the Beverly Hills store.

    Aloha,

    Jacob,

    Thank you for the comment. I will definitely let my graphics people know about your concern. This is actually a temporary update to the website. We will have a major update sometime before the end of the year. I have seen mockups and am so excited. The new website will really be impressive!

    Aloha,

    Hi,Tom
    The brown one look pretty cool.
    Is the sole a rubber sole?
    Thanks

    Reply
    • Tom on June 24, 2010 at 4:35 pm

      Guy,

      Yes, it has a rubber commando sole. This is not a true rubber sole however, it is a layer of rubber tread on top of a leather sole.

      Aloha,

    The two pairs of boots arrived today and I couldn’t be happier. While I like the brown chromexcel, the black calf is truly a looker, just like you said.

    All best with the Beverly Hills store.

    Hi Tom,

    Would you say the black calf fits a bit wider? I’ve noticed this with the black Indy in calf.

    thanks.

    Thank you Leather Soul staff. I received the brown NSTs yesterday. They are beautiful. . . . I especially want to thank Takuya Hoshino who was very patient with me on the phone; so many questions. I look forward to buying another pair of custom Alden boots soon. Best of luck with the Beverly Hills location!

    Robin,

    We just placed a reorder but did not include 12D. If you would like to add 12D to our order, please contact us today. We would require a $100 non-refundable deposit since it is out of our stock size run for this model.

    We do have the Tanker Boot in stock in 12D in #8 shell cordovan and black shell cordovan at the moment in case you may be interested.

    Aloha,

    Will you do any re-order in black in the tanker boots? I need a 12D in the Barrie last, which is the the smallest I could wear. The shell cordovan would probably fit bettter than calf. Thanks.

    We may have them in black at LSBH. Please call (310)248-2399 or email bryan@lsfootwear.com.
