    Lone Wolf boots. Fit true to size?

    No worries Colin. Sorry if my input being contrary to the general consensus of opinion on the fit of these boots confuses matters. I can only speak as I find.

    Lone Wolf boots. Fit true to size?

    In my experience they fit true to size. I have 2 pairs, all black and 2 tone. I wear a size 8 UK which is equivalent (for me) to 8-1/2 US. The fit is good. Breathing room without being too loose so I get no slippage. My toes do not 'feel' the end of the toe box so they don't cause any...

A separate bell set with a moulded cover was issued. This could be fitted to...

    Vintage Phones

    I'm not familiar with Bell's E1.

The 162 was the same in appearance as the 232 only varying externally in as much as in...

    Vintage Phones

    Old telephones were built to last. Those issued by the GPO pre 1960 are my thing. My red WE 302 is 1 of 2 deviations from the home grown GPO models I own. Here's one of my red 1950's model 232's

    Vintage Phones

    "The Grizzly"

    If it aint HH & mouton it aint comin' in :) Oh, and those RL Grizzly's are made in China. Cheaply no doubt and not deserving the premium price tag.

    "The Grizzly"

    I have one of those Sugar Cane Grizzly's. I bought mine new on Yahoo Japan for a lot less that the pre-owned example in your link, about 25% less in fact.
