I'm looking at some William Lennon Ammo Boots but I'm unfamiliar with both UK sizing and the Ammo Boot itself. I'm a US 8, which converts to a UK 7.5, but my only sizing options are UK 7 or UK 8.
How much does that 0.5 difference matter? Should I go by the "rule of thumb" of UK sizing being one smaller than US, or should I go one size larger? When it comes to shoes in general, I tend to have issues with toe tip/nail pain when shoes are slightly small, and chafing when shoes are slightly large, so I'm a bit lost when I can't physically try them on.
Hi there one and all, just introducing these guys as they are currently recruiting in the UK.

Hello all, I have been looking round at some british army ww2 groups but all so far require me to blanco my webbing which I am not to comfortable doing due to my webbing kit being original and I would prefer to keep it in the original khaki coloruing. Does anyone know of any groups that allows this? (preferably a group that portrays a regiment that saw combat but Home Guard works aswell) Thanks.

Hi all I’m just learning about British stuff from ww1. I am not going to be joining any groups yet because I do WW1 German and Civil war already (too much money) I might do it in the future just wanted to ask trying to make a list so I know what to get if I decide to do it later on
Does anyone know a good source for Australian other ranks boots for WW2. I have a pair of British officer’s boots but they mess up my feet pretty bad so I’m looking for more comfortable and accurate replacements.
