help finding dubarry boots?!

[BackInBlack]

does anybody know anywhere in the southwest of england that stocks Dubarry boots - i'd really like to go and try some on before buying to ensure a good fit but can't seem to find anywhere other than buying online.

Just wondered, what is the fit like? do they come up true to size or are they generally smaller/bigger than your regular shoe size?

Hi there,

They come up large so you will need at least a half size smaller than your regular shoe size. eg. I am a size 6 in normal shoes and I take a 5 and a half in Dubarries.

Ridemore in Wincanton used to stock them, and I Would imagine Wychanger Barton near Wellington would have that kind of thing. May be closer than the other placed sepending where in Somerset you are. Don't live in Somerset any more so I'm not much help. They do seem to be at nearly every big event/equine fair so you could try somewhere like that.

i'm close to burnham on sea - tried emailing a couple of stockists - no reply yet

. will try your 2 aniseed as well, many thanks!

Would their website list stockists so you can find the closest one? Or maybe have a tel no you can ring to find out?

I think they fit like wellies...

Larger, but not ridiculously so. I am a size 5 and bought that size and can comfortably wear thick socks in them (not that you need them! ) but if I wear thin ones, they don't feel big/my feet don't slide about.

Iwould just like some, but Nik says I have to wait until my Le Chameaus wear out, well I have had them 13 years and they are still going strong
