Thanks for this - I have a follow-up:

How do they compare re width? Regular Rain-EE is slightly too snug for me, while Rain-EEE is quite nice.

Yanko 915 is definitely wider than standard Rain width

+1 915 last fits me perfectly, Rain is too tight at the toes.

Anyone knows how Carmina Rain compares to Yanko 915?
Many thanks!

I have Carmina rain in U.K. 9 which fits me perfectly. For Yanko 915 I decided to go with an 8.5 in the end. Fits snug but ok on one foot but was too tight on the other (so had it stretched out a little bit). In hindsight I probably would have gotten a 9 for Yanko as well.

I was browsing Skolyx a few days ago, and was about to pull the trigger on a dark brown jodhpur boot. Well, this morning, the price hiked from $276 to $345! Is this a common thing? Usually, prices go down this week, and I certainly did not expect the increase. It seems that Carlos Santos is now a better value at its price point. Truly a pity, I was looking forward to trying my first pair of Yanko shoes.

Sounds just like a vat issue. Add it to cart, go to checkout and choose your country and see what happens?

Many thanks for the prompt response. Of course it's VAT!

I was pleasantly surprised to see VAT disappear!

Anyone have insight on Yanko 915 or 962 vs Alden Modified? I have high arches, wide toe area, and a narrow heel.

Carmina Rain-EE, Alden Barrie, and AE 65 are all tolerable, but each tends to slope back in a way that hits my second toe.

I want to pull the trigger on some Yankos, but I think my wife has gotten sick of shoes arriving and being sent back...

@Skolyx Any black friday deals coming up this week? Looking to make an order and will wait if so.

edit: nvm, found black friday section, bummer my shoes aren't in it

It may be a good thing that I'm not a UK9.5...

@Skolyx,

Is the shipping costs quoted in the shopping cart final? Mine shows SEK 135.

Yes.

Dang, I didn’t know about the Black Friday sale until today. Otherwise I would’ve been all over the brown wingtip oxford in 8.5. Oh well.

@Skolyx do you think the eu40 last-shape shoe tree would work in the uk5 915 last? Or will you have any EU39 trees coming in?
