Starting this thread as I did not see any for C&J First off are my Shell Dundees that I got in on a recent MTO. Unfortunately this being my first pair of C&Js, I sized incorrectly and these are half a size too big. Still debating if I want to keep these and use an insole. Also recently picked up these Skye 2 which are on the same last as the Dundees in my correct size and they fit perfect on me.

My brannock is 9.5D. I wear a 9D on the Alden barrie and a 9.5D on the plaza.
The Dundees are a size 8.5E UK and the Skye 2s are 8E UK. Both are on the 335 last that is really wide.

Crockett & Jones Chelsea 5's in brown suede. The denim in the picture is the secret denim from Ciano Farmer.

The same boots as above. Just cleaned them using a scotch brite very gently to bring out the nap. Like these better now..

Awesome looking boots. Love the roughout leather Thanks.. When I first got these, I wanted to darken them a little, so made the mistake of using VSC on these.. that completely flattened out the texture. However a few months in just using scotch brite brought back the nap and the color of these boots.

I thought I needed to oil them just like regular boots and saturated my RWs a little too much. But it did go away after some time and all I do now is just brush them with a stiff bristle brush every now and then.
