Keep the larger ones too and just wear a thick wool sock with them. Best of both worlds.

I get the feeling I would not look that cool if I were wearing Vans...

Now I’m worried. I got my shipping confirmation the next day for the first pair I ordered.
Still no shipping confirmation. I’ll give it through today and reach out tomorrow if nothing moves.

By all accounts, TVL’s customer service is excellent.
Curse you guys! Now I want some.
Out of curiosity before I order - what size dress shoe do you normally wear?
I see the Townline Mocs you ordered are 9 D and you're saying a half size smaller is what you need, so I want to try to avoid a send back scenario if I can!

I don’t own any “dress shoes”. Don’t even own a suit. Or even dress pants. Not even a white button down oxford! But all the shoes I have are sizes 9. Even the non-tennis shoes. Boots, sneakers, loafers, etc. all size 9.
I wish I could tell you the half size re-order is perfect but I haven’t got them yet. I can say for sure the size 9 I wear is definitely too large. Bob read some reviews and by all accounts they say to order a half size smaller.
Their reviews did have a guy that normally wears a 10 1/2 to an 11 EEE was really happy with the 10 EEE he re-ordered, as the 10 1/2 EEE he ordered was too big.
Their site says to go by dress shoe size rather than boot or sneaker size, that's why I asked.
Maybe I'll hold up and let you Guinea pig it for the rest of us!

I didn’t read the site. I just saw something shiny and new and ordered. I probably should have read then I wouldn’t be waiting on a 2nd pair.
Good news is my 2nd pair will ship tomorrow I was told. I sent an email tonight and got a reply within the hour, even “after hours”. I was surprised. They said it’s now their busy time. Didn’t even dawn on me that could be the case being November and all.

Monday. It’s so far away!
I just ordered a pair of Kyrgies Tengries, they are a wool felt shoe. The pair I bought are the walkabout with a thin rubber sole.
I don't know much about them but they seem well liked.

Yeah, those are top notch looking.
Good thing I'm set for slippers, but if I ever need a pair, those will be the ones.
i have the same. really nice.
But in wintertime with floorheating, i walk barefoot. My feet are sweating like hell otherwise. And summertime barefoot as well. because I'm lazy and kicking out flipflops and putting on socks is stupid

So I got my size 8.5 back today. One shoe fits just fine. The other shoe is still slippy sliddy on the heal. I sent a message to them explaining the situation before I exchange 2 pairs.
Only thing I'm thinking is go down another half size. But knowing my luck that will be too damn small!

I have a pair of Clark’s slides with plaid/shearling uppers and Birkenstock style cork soles on the way. I’ve found full shearling lining to be too hot.
True. For YEARS my left foot was smaller than my right, so much so that if I'd been born rich instead of good lookin' I'd have bought TWO pairs of shoes and made one good pair!
Retirement has made them the same size. Not standing up all day for almost 40 years, and now sittin' in my Lazyarseboy for the last two or three will do that I suppose!
Birkenstock clogs with a warm merino wool pair of socks.
I'm going to recommend this to the War Department. Might just get me off the "Naughty List" LOL!
