Our wide last still retain the narrow/waist characteristic as most of the adjustments are on width and instep mainly.Most of my shoes are too wide at the waist and show excess leather bunching. But I have to use a wide size for my toes.
Do the Yeossal wide lasts have narrow waists? @yeossal
Sadly we do not have a good side by side shot in our archives of these two lasts in particular but will try to take something later this week.I dug up some old pictures on my phone. This is SG65:

Perhaps Yeossal CS would be able to provide side by side pictures.
A small batch of new RTW models from our handwelted range is now available online @KangnamstylesHope to make them available as soon as we can @Kangnamstyles. A batch is being prepared to ship from the factory as we speak but we are also experiencing delays with shipping timelines with forwarders and elevated safe distancing measures in Singapore so it's hard to give a good estimate at this moment.

Happy to discuss new gmto ideas if anyone has in mind a model that is outside of our MTO catalogue. The MTO fee waiver and free shipping offer is only for models in the catalogue (btw offer is ending this weekend). New models typically will incur a 150 SGD pattern surcharge but this can be waived alongside the MTO fee if we can get 4 pairs for the GMTO. Let's try to get some ideas flowing ?Anyone putting together some GMTO ideas? Or, since the MTO fee is waived you can just order your own preferences.
will the new lazyman model work on SG65 last?

@rwtc "Step" ?, not a problem at all. Just make a quick note in the special instructions field so that we are aware of this preference. It's gonna be a free customization for now, even though it requires additional finishing work. ?By the time I woke up and checked the site, the two models I was interested in were already sold out in my size
Sorry to push for this question, but is the "step" able to be customized by any chance? I'm following up with you guys here, as I'm unsure if I would receive a response prior to the promotion ending. Thank you.
@rwtc thank you very much for the awesome summary - you basically did all the work for me ?The new models are now online. I had some time on my hands, and the updates appear to be as below:
New models:
Whitley - Captoe without swan neck
Labrador - Lazyman with perforated captoe
Holland - Thomson (EG Dovers - but nicer waist and of course, HW rather than GYW) without the stitching at the toe
Clark - Longwings
Cove - Wholecut with medallion / quarter brogue (?)
Duxton - Longwing wingtips (the ones I commissioned - see photo gallery)
Marina - Wholecut
Shrewsbury - Medallion + perforated captoe / quarter brogue (was added a few days prior to this update)
New leathers:
Horween Russia Saddle Brown
Horween Russia Expresso (should be espresso?)
Chestnut Grained Calf
Classic Dark Blue Grained Calf

Sole shape design: Able to specify Silhouette (what you see on the MTO shoes) or Spade (what you see on the RTW shoes - more aggressively tapers in at the waist)
I'd like to order, but I have too many pairs shoes so have no idea what to even potentially order..... any ideas, gents?
Also, I discussed this with Jackson before the whole Covid-19 ordeal, but it would be great if we could specify if we want a "step" at the heel - I mostly see this on only bespoke shoes. This would really be the cherry on top! Is this still possible as a customization?
