What is the sizing like on their moccs? Is it like paraboot where I should be good going a half size down?
I would email them directly for sizing advice, it seems to be all over the place
My rocker mocs are just a little loose at tts
half size is the way to go but that's dependent on what last the shoe is on. ime, i go 0.5 down
I have seen that they recommend going down 1/2 size on their non-moccasin shoes, I usually go TTS for everything else. I don't have loafers by them though so that may be 1/2 down too
I have a pair of 8" maine guides, toyko db chukkas, a maine guide db ox, a kiltie rocker blucher, and some old sample boat shoes. I'm obsessed with yuketen (my wallet laments)
The rocker bluchers are soooo nice. I also love the maine guides but I don't find many secondhand.
I have the camp moc and I went a half size down. It fits near perfect with a little looseness in the heel. I wouldn’t size down any further than that as the last is on the narrower side and would throw off the fit entirely.
guess while i have the yuk fans hear i have a size 8 side lace tyrolean shoe fs if anyone is interested in a wacky and rare model
those are kinda wild
sadly I am 10.5 so I'll pass
I lucked out in late 2019, had been checking ebay & grailed every week for about a year at that point and found a pair of boots on ebay in my exact size, never worn, for $125. I don't know if I've ever had such a coup since
Yuk secondhand can be brazy if you check often enough. Their sample sales are fun too cause you get to shop irl and talk to Yuki
they had this horsebit chukka boot on a commando sole that was stocked at moda operandi (out of business) a few years ago that i kick myself til this day for not getting
I have a love of Yuketen and normaly I take my normal size, I only size down (0.5) for the loafers.
For the Maine Guide, the rocker blutcher, etc, TTS for me
when I have time a take a family picture 🫣
never gotten out to LA for the sample sales, sadly. but I do have some burgundy camp sole boat shoes with floral imprint on them from some guy selling samples back in 2020
I will also post mine in a bit
wearing my rocker bluchers today, bout to send them in for a resole
Idk if this got shared anywhere yet today, but Yuke sample sale!

Some of these samples go crazy
Anyone have the Sal 1 clogs? Curious about the sizing on em.
Are these Yuketen? Just thrifted them. Insole missing so no help there.
They could also be rancourt or quoddy
doubt they are yuketen. the brand is over the top about this stitch to finish the shoes as a trademark
(on the Made in main handsewns)
Hmmmm
Ahh yeah I see what you’re saying about the stitch. The plot thickens! Maybe they are quoddy, I don’t think it’s rancourt as they don’t have usually info stamped on the side…
Thanks!
I think they are old Maine Moccasin shoes based on the upper finishing and toebox. Look like cataumets
Wow yes that looks like it, tysm! Sorry to hijack the Yuketen thread 😅
hard to tell 100%. I found this pic on their old instagram (I think it's pretty funny it's still up) that matches a lot of what yours have (toebox, waxed laces, vibram 2021 sole, eyelets)
the stitching
no prob man it's in the neighborhood and they look fun, enjoy
Can anyone ID these yuketen boots I found?
at first look it's an 8" maine guide with some interesting detailing. my guess it was from a sample sale from over a few years ago
They didn't always document their samples as well as they do now so its difficult to say
Kind of what I was thinking. I did come across a black pair but that’s it
The good news is the name doesn't matter if you're gonna wear em, because they're good boots!
I wish but unfortunately not my size. They were at my local thrift store and I couldn’t leave them behind 😂
Sometimes it's really complicated to find the name of a model at Yuketen.
I have a snake loafer from them, it looks like a pair from the Ronie Fieg collab, but with a few differences.
I asked Yuki for more info, and even he didn't know 😂
