But, anyway, looking for someone to take over the quarterback position. Please PM me if you are willing to do so.

what are you referring to?

Thinking about getting this build with a cap toe and a cream liner. The leather here is White's black dress leather. Shit looks svelte as fuck.

- close trim
- medallion captoe
- single leather sole
- brown edge
- lowered std. heel
- all antique hooks

the specs sound great but I really don't dig the swing last; they would have looked killer with a standard last imo

I'm not sure it's the swing last so much as it is the combination with a single leather sole and lowered heel. The top of the boot looks as though it's crushing the bottom, an effect that would not occur with a double leather sole and a standard heel height. If one were set on the sole combination being as is, I would agree with Slab that the lowest profile last would be ideal.

Does the toe of the swing last curl up more than the standard semi-dress last?
