Thursday recommends ordering 1/2 size smaller than your sneakers. The website promises free shipping and returns. I hope they live up to the excellent online reviews.

I clicked on this thread out of curiosity and hoping I might find a good place to find a pair of chukkas. I wanted something that would last and would work mainly with cargo pants but might be okay with chinos. Using the above link I found these: https://thursdayboots.com/products/m...s-boots-chukka
I typically go for cheap, or stuff I find on closeout. I'm 69 and I think I'm out of that mode now.
I have been flirting with the nicer boot world for the better part of the year now. A deputy in my office who is even harder core than me about footwear (Alden is his non duty boot of choice) raves about Thursday boots because he can get something that looks good in a jacket and tie when he goes to court but still has a rubber sole such that he can run move and fight in if needed.
I tried on his 12s and they were too small. I would be inclined to go 13 based on that experience thought perhaps I could get by on a 12.5 with a dress sock.
Some random shoe size data points that may or may not be helpful for you. I have been 13 trending to the narrow side in Allen Edmonds dress shoes, Ecco dress shoes,Brooks Adrenaline GTS running shoes And most other shoes for 35+ years.
I purchased a pair of Red Wings iron rangers from Redwing after being measured on their device as a 12 on one foot and a 12 pushing 12 1/2 on the other. I was fit with 11s and told to break them in. I have done so in a satisfactory manner with both those iron wings and a pair of blacksmiths.
I took a chance on a pair of wolverine brand 1000 miler’s at 11 1/2 because I caught them on such a good deal. No real break in as there was with the Red Wings.
I just recently purchased a pair of Danner Bull Runs Lux limited editions on line in 12s after going to-a local store that did not carry the model I was after.
All of that to say-If I had doubts I would buy the two sizes and send the one back that did not fit. Life is short and my time has value.
YMMV. Tell us what u so and why.

Urban assault shoes just came in. they seem well made and relatively rugged, the toe is nicely reinforced. Camo pattern is pretty slick and I appreciate the subdued nature of the pattern. Time to operate operationally.
My new Thursday Boot Co. Captain boots arrived about 1 week after ordering. This was commendable given that I80 was closed a portion of the delivery time. In accordance with the web site suggestion, I ordered 1/2 size smaller than my usual athletic shoe size. The fit is good. Quality also seems excellent. Now it’s time for some break in. Best, ELN.
