Late night speculations: Any chance that the U last and F last shoes are the same pattern stretched over different lasts?

as they are both mto, despite the display models, my vote is: yes.

iirc, there are just a few restrictions in the detailing: welt, sole type...

"Burlington" is based on a G&G model. I had it made without rear seam.
