Meermin Mallorca Shoes
Fair, so new question: are Meermins worth a $245 price tag (cost of shoes including shipping plus the cost of returning the pair that does not fit)? I'm just not willing to take the risk of ordering a single pair and then being out $70 in shipping if they don't fit.- hindvik

Hmmm, even if they're brand new, in box, and exclude the $35 shipping fee? I guess it's just your opinion (which I asked for), but it seems like "quite unrealistic" is a bit strong.- hindvik

Meermin Mallorca Shoes
So, instead of just buying my best guess for a size I think I'm going to get a 9.5 and 10, and then keep one and ditch the other. That way I at least know I'm getting a shoe that fits. The thing is, I'd much rather sell it over here (the US) then send it back and pay shipping. So, my question...- hindvik

Meermin Mallorca Shoes
Interesting. Got one more for you since you've been very helpful up to this point: what's your opinion on the back wholecut (elton last) as an every day work shoe with dress slacks or a suit? I dig the simplicity of it and I like the elton last, but I'm not sure if wholcuts are usually...- hindvik

Sweet, that's pretty much how I've been imagining the comparison. Have you found the toe cap to be too long at all on the Elton?- hindvik

Meermin Mallorca Shoes
Anyone have strong opinions on the Hiro vs. the Elton last (especially those who have both)? I'm not really looking for opinions on feel, more look. Going to buy my first pair of (actually) nice shoes, and am deciding between the Hiro and Elton last Black Cap Toe Oxfords. I'll be wearing these...- hindvik

Meermin Mallorca Shoes
Hi all, I'm planning on getting either the Hiro or Elton black cap toe and would welcome any sizing advise. I usually wear a US 10.5 D(M), with the occasional 11 D (currently a pair of Sperrys and Cole Haan driving mocs). My foot is ~27.5/28cm L and ~10.5/11cm W, with a hight instep and a narrow...- hindvik
