i am indeed. currently what i would really like is a Galway in Mahogany country calf in a 202 7F. but made without the toe cap stitching (!) so it has a plain toe. unfortunately currently the only way to do that is to do it as a Top Shelf which i was told would cost around £1500 failing that...- ruscal

i really like how the 82 last makes cap toe chelsea shoes look. but with plain toe shoes i think i prefer the 202 last. strange how such a small detail can make such a significant difference- ruscal

i agree that in my experience the 82 is a slimmer last than the 202. but i also think that the 82 is a longer last than the 202. pics below for reference. they seemed to my eye to be identical in length. but for the sake of precision i also measured them both and found the 202 to be only 1mm...- ruscal

no - the chelsea is a half size smaller and a little more snug you may well be right. but i've only had these shoes for half a day, and not quite sure how much they will stretch and where yet aw thanks bro. i dont normally like the toe shape of the 202, but on the Ladbroke i think...- ruscal

aw, thanks brother weirdly they're actually different sized shoes. the 82 is a half size smaller than the 202. but they fit almost identically. you don't really notice a difference until you get to the toe box, and then you can tell that the 82 has slightly less room as it subtlely pinches in...- ruscal
