Merrell Letaher boots: Us or UK sizing

Post by Rodbelan » Sun May 20, 2018 12:18 pm

I am just about to buy another leather boot (Merrell, norwegian welt). I wonder if the sizing is UK or US. Some italian boot maker use UK, some use US... I asked the guy on eBay but no answer.
I really have no luck with fit and condition; my last one was a disaster... a Alpine Tele lite; the boot separated from the sole after a couple of trips. Garbage... They were new! But the rubber was altered and they aren't norwegian welt so not much to do...

My Merrils from the mid to late 80s fit like they are marked in US sizing.
