This is their 8874 Heritage Roughout Suede / Reverse Leather model in jet black- it's the much more seldom seen rough out furry sueded outer. Good stain concealment in this dye and extremely versatile.
The 8874 is long out of production for years now, and was a Japan exclusive release. These made their way stateside. Particularly in a large size 11 E, very difficult to obtain. The soles on this set are in excellent shape with very little wear. I cleaned only a few little scuffs from the outsole for you. I can continue if you'd like. The rough out hide has some surface transfer markings, but not much. The leather insoles are perfect. The rough out shows zero creasing... I think they were worn 2-3 times and hardly any evidence of pavement in their lifetime. Nearly new. Inside the boots smell strongly like the showroom and the leather footbed shows no signs of wear at all.
Stamped an 11 E inside the boot. I concur. The width scale runs from A-E, with A & B narrower sizes, D & E being wide and wider, respectively. But I also measured these for you:
Measured inside the boot, from heel to toe (interior length) - About 11 1/4 inches is where the tape starts to curl upward to the heel. (So, not exactly 11 1/4)
Measured across the sole of the boot (exterior length) - 12 3/4 inches
Measured across the heel (bottom) - 3 1/4 inches
Measured across the toped (ball of foot, bottom) - 4 1/8 inches
And I've started another way of measuring that I never read in other sellers' listings, but I think is very noteworthy: The length of the arc of the toepad, which in my estimation is where the fit is either or make or break. This is where your toes either have the room they need, or are squeezed into discomfort.
This measurement is 7 inches around. Picture the upper of the shoe around, from where it meets the outsole on either side. (Where ski bindings would go!) Measured with a tailor's tape.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Customer service is what I consider the hallmark feature of The Thread Locker.
Shipping is $18.75 for Priority Mail (These are heavier than my average package) That's 2-3 day max travel time, tracked, and it is boxed. It's possible I can sneak them into a smaller box and will of course do so if I can- and save us some money.
I'll ship these anywhere in the world and I will refund any shipping overages. Overseas buyers, Please read :
I've been lucky enough to sell over 420 items on etsy and at around item 25, I raised my shipping quotes. Due solely to shipping packages overseas and paying 200% or 300% more at the time of shipping. Sometimes it effectively nullified any profit, so I changed my estimates. Even as recently as September 2016 I got caught out again by incredibly high shipping, twice what I estimated- so if the estimates seem high, it's only initially- you have my word I will refund you any overages- you pay what I pay to get it to your door. I have sterling feedback because I take real pride in owning and operating The Thread Locker.
I love my overseas patrons, and love to find things for people across the globe. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me- I love to answer questions and always have time for you.
Thanks for looking and I hope you are loving your Fall like I am. - Skylar Woodman, The Thread Locker
