I am usually UK7.5, but in the Simpson last I am UK8, should I size the same in the Rain last?

You would be 7.5UK

Anyone know (@Leaves
 maybe?) if Carmina can do grain uppers and calf lower on the 973? I love the look of the Galway but it's like double my price range 

For a MTO, yes.

Agree with the other posters, Rain has more volume and should be a UK 7.5 for you.

Agreed killer boots! Green lining was a nice touch to the earthy polo.

Hi everyone,

Been a lurker for a bit, but first time posting (outside of the intro thread). I figured I would try to contribute as much as I can right off the bat, so here is a pair of Carmina Inca tan semi-brogues I bought about a month ago.



I have a full review also up on reddit, but I was not sure about styleforum's outside link policy, so I will hold off on linking that until someone can give me some clarity. These are Inca last 9.5UK. I measure 10.5C/D on brannock, but usually because of my high instep and slight bunion on my left foot, I size my shoes a little wider. For perspective, I am a 10E on AE 65 last, 10D on the Barrie last, 9.5EE RW IRs. These were almost too tight when I first got them, but have since become much more comfortable, although if I ever buy another Inca or even Rain last shoe in the future, I might size up to 10UK and wear an insole on my right foot if too loose...not too sure though. The left instep is still a hair too tight, but the width seems to have become a little looser and is pretty comfortable.
