Im looking at a pair of these on ebay- im normally a 6.5 give or take but would i be best getting these in a 6 or 7 as apparently they come up generous?

Thanks
 
If you have to do it and buy Dublin River boots (NOT TO BE RECOMMENDED) buy the newer version with the stripe up the front and back go for the larger size and use a long shoe horn to put them on this will lengthen the time that that the lining stays attached to the boot and you dont have to fight to get them comfortable. but they will leak and start to fall to bits in no time at all. I really dont know why Dublin are not intrested in sorting out their DRB warm Comfortable but leak like a Collander why dont they put in a full height branded waterproof Membrane I am sure most people would pay a little more for a boot that was actualy waterproof!!! not just claimed to be that leaks worse than a government department:eek:
 
I agree with the old hairy cob on this. I got some and the stitching gave way after a couple of months, they changed them, but it took time as tack shop had to send them back and have them tested. The new pair ended up being leaky too. I think they came up a bit big and seemed to drop a fair bit too. The replacement pair were a size smaller but tbh wish i hadn't changed the size as they were a bit neat. Probably go for the bigger ones if you buy them.
 
Mine have lasted fab for the past couple of years.they look smart and I ride in mine. I'm about due some new ones though a I've worn them loads.

Get the next size down, I had to take the 5 back and swap for a 4
 
I wouldn't buy Dublin River, I got a pair a couple of years ago and within 6 months the lining had all torn and they leaked badly. But if you do have to get them I am a size 7 and that's what I got.
