Yeah looks like it, I'm a 7/8, seemed to be the most common size going. Spent a fair amount of time trawling through the various piles people had hoarded and then left. The Duck Boots are the ones that I'm least sold on, considered leaving them at the till, but asked the price and they were 10 pounds, felt criminal not to.
Went to the Grenson sale on a whim... and left with four pairs. Picked up some Paul Stuart Stuart's Choice boots (can't seem to find them online anywhere, research seems to indicate they were hand made in England by Grenson, to similar standards to their old Masterpiece lines) with Vibram commando soles, a pair of Tim Little wholecuts, some tan scotch-grain Grenson Oscar desert boots and some Grenson Spike Duck Boots. Been badly needing some proper shoes for a while, and the whole lot only cost £105.
Don't think I'll be seeing the inside of a shoe shop for a while.
