should not be a problem. by right, u should get your feet measured with socks (RW shop has the tool for measuring your feet iirc, some kind of scale). if its the width issue, RW has D, E, EE. these are in increasing order. D being slimmest, EE being widest.

buy half size bigger, still too roomy? dont worry, insoles will save the day. put 1-2 insoles if deem fit. prefer leather insole? dont worry, come down to 310 Woodlands @ the Heeren, lvl 4. get the insoles custom made.

heehee, thanks, will see if they're too big ~

how much does insoles usually cost? leather one or normal ones.

 

[Toby88]

insoles range quite big.
from FOC to maybe 20+ bucks.

where to find free insole? simple. if u r a sg male, gone to NS before. e-mart sells insoles for boots. use your emart credits to purchase or wait for the top up every 2 years. i personally use them, quite good. so far no problem. even if got problem, just get new one, FOC mah....

u can check out shoe repair shops like shukey, or major departmental stores and ask for insoles. if want leather, check out 310 woodlands @ the heeren, can get a piece of leather cut to the size of an insole.

If you want something that can be worn with a smart/formal outfit, i think you should get something like the Redwing Gentlemen travellers 9014

 

[ChevyImpala]

a quick question - how much does a Redwing Gentlemen Traveller 9011/9014 cost? Would it be available at Suntec or Illuma? Thanks in advance!

 

[varas12]

My redwing of 14 yrs is emitting a foul odor which I suspect is over oiling. any help to remove the odor? Its been season to super comfy liao , and I really dun wanna dump it as its my very first pair.
