(if it gets reduced a bit more in the sales)

Is YMC quality still shit? Anyway, nay, buy my Cash Ca shirt instead.

for some reason I just can't bring myself to really rate YMC even though they've definitely improved

I think that way there always used to be so much crap in their collections coupled with poor quality and it always going cheap has tarred it for me

Terrible that, how can a store not get footwear sizing correct, surely everyone must complain they get the wrong size..

I'm still undecided on what to do with them, they do fit but are a touch tight, as someone mentioned if you keep them you'll probably not end up wearing them and if you do think why on earth did I keep these!

i guess they used us sizing, then it would be correct.
have you ever tried a shoe stretcher?
ike u said…it's just a touch tight, maybe this will do the work.
a size bigger on the other hand could be just a touch 'too big'…

I can deal with a touch big (except on slip ons) but can never accept a touch small.

I can't deal with a touch big. I'm 9.5 so if I buy a 10 it's like I'm wearing clown shoes. Has to be 9.5 or a big 9.

Slip-ons I'll even go small and make my feet warp the shoe over time if necessary.

Got this today, Barbour x Norton heavy knit trawler. Lovely quality but has like knitted inserts under the arm pit Puzzled

Too much gathering round the top of the arm / armpit or not?
