    I'm right there with you. I wear a size 12.5 shoe most of the time, though depending on the shoe brand I can be a 12 or a 13 (I fit perfectly in a size 11 from one brand!). I've worn both L and XL Lewis hose and both fit ok.

    But I'd recommend going larger if there is any doubt. Over time my L hose are starting to fit just a bit snugly, while my XL still fit fine. Though these hose are machine washable and don't really shrink if you take care of them properly, they will shrink just a tad bit over time with repeated washings, and if you are a borderline size that minor bit of shrinking will become noticeable if the hose were on the smallish side to begin with. So when it doubt, go larger not smaller.

    All the size information on our web site is US sizing, by the way, as that is where we are based and where over 95% of our customers are.

    We have a good stock of both of these ranges currently, so we should be able to fill most orders immediately. We are going to keep the sale prices in place through Dec. 10, though, and even if we sell out of certain colors or sizes and have to backorder, we will still honor the sale price.
    Just my luck... the size and color I ordered is not in stock and has to be backordered. *sigh*

    Sorry about that -- we have a huge stack of the dark natural hose in every size except for small! If you don't want to wait and would consider substituting for another color, we do have smalls in stock in most other color options. Just let us know!

    I appreciate it, Matt. But I'll just wait for that color. Aside from the uncontrollable jonesing for anything newly ordered to get here, I'm in no particular hurry.

    These new Lovat Green are exactly what I need for my new Macdonald Lord of the Isles Kilt! Looks like a perfect color match. Plan on placing an order tonight!
