Does Vass have a gladiator model?  Can't find anything on their website but just curious...


I asked. they can do a special one for you, but certainly not their normal MTO

I have a pair of Theresianer (size=6 in P2 last) and it fits fine. P2 with derby is OK with my size, but not in the case of oxfords which are too tight because of the close lacing. Do you know which kind of last for oxfords could fit as large as P2 for derby? Thank you!

It is an instep issue.
P2 is a relatively low instep last. I think almost all other Vass lasts have higher insteps. Try 3636, F.

Yes, P2 has a low instep. So I was wandering whether F last would be fine. Are there any picture of Old English in F last in suede? Thanks.

I think Swede66 has just that model, so he will probably be able to help you.


I do. Modified with a brogued cap (quarter brogue). Lovely shoe, rich and lush suede.

Was in Budapest early this month. My visit to the shop was not quite pleasant. The sales lady was really rude. Therefore, walked out empty handed. Returned at night time for these pics.

Very beautiful shoes? Are they in F last?
Did you order them online or at the Vass store in Budapest? Do you have other pairs of Vass shoes?
