Yeah, the sole is a Skywalk sole, but i'm not sure of the model - might be Clubman Classics, but difficult to tell. Definitely a discontinued model though.

Looks like it.

After a bit of digging it seems that the Clubman Classic comes either with buckles or with Velcro. The Velcro on these was what was throwing me.

Thank all - I might buy some!

Same as mine but I can not remember the name. The classic has buckles not velcro I think.

They are clubman classics, or clubman classic microlite depending on wheter they have a CE 89/686 sticker in the right boot and waterproof membrane tags in the the gusset (regular clubman) or not (microlite).

The lining is a different colour to my my clubman classics, which might suggest microlite.

Buckles were an optional extra on the clubman classic. Looked nice but getting them undone with cold hands might be a bit difficult.

Really nice boots. Replaced by the more modern looking Bahn Rider.

Thank everyone - lost the auction on Ebay, as wasn't prepared to pay too much when I was guessing on a size that would fit.

However, after reading reviews, and other threads on here, i'm thinking I might phone up the factory and maybe pop down next Friday for a fitting.
