Yep,they are used,but well maintained.

Sounds like a plan,but we may have to keep our heads down,dont wanna scare to many humans

What is the sizing like mate.

 

[Graywolf]

They were advertised as size 10,but the sizing on the boots is 285 107,now I have googled this size and it has come up as size 9.5,9.5 to 10 and 10,so not sure of size,they appear to fit ok.But I havent worn them in anger yet.
When i first tried them on,they did seem to be a bit tighter then I normally wear but nothing uncomfortable

 

[blacktimberwolf]

285 is officially size 9.5 but will fit a small 10................you will soon know if they are big enough when you start to wear them for long periods or in hot weather........ with insoles & thick socks any spare room is soon taken up.

They were made for average shaped feet so if you don't fit into the norm they may not work for you, they do exist in different width sizes but it's quite complicated to work out..( & to find the right ones)......the second set of numbers after the size is in fact the width ( width at widest part in millimetres )

 

[Graywolf]

Thnx for clearing that up BTW,just tried them on with insoles and walking socks.and they are tighter them i normally wear but not uncomfortable,yet.

Oh dear, doesen't sound good................I've got some good news & some bad news ..........the bad news is .if they are tight in your living room then I'm afraid they may be excrutiating on the hills once your feet start to swell.......................................the good news is you shouldn't have problems selling them.
