I think that I could go up 1/2 a size & still get a pretty good fit. I'd add tongue pads or an insole if necessary.
Thank you for the answer.

Still no one with experience from both Vass (U last) and Meermin (New Rey and/or Vil last/s) that could compare the widths?

I think we're all in the same boat as you. I know I am, especially for cordo.

I didn't ask about when the goods would be on the site, but I asked for pix of green, blue, & red shell. He said they still haven't received the materials from their Argentine supplier.

Do they have the other shell colors on hand? Thinking about getting a pair made in dark brown or cuero.

Can anyone comment on the fit of the Ron last for the tassel loafers? If it helps, I'm wondering how it compares to C&J in which I'm am 8.5E UK across all lasts. Thanks. Very intrigued by the brand

update on new rey last fit. Pepe provided the measurements of the outsole of 3 sizes: 10.5, 11, and 11.5UK.
10.5UK
Length: 320mm
Width: 110mm
11UK
Length: 324mm
Width: 111mm
11.5UK
Length: 329-330mm
Width: 111-112mm
My initial understanding of the new rey last was to size down one size. However, once I compared measurements, its clear that New Rey last fits my foot best by sizing down only 1/2 size. 11UK is equivalent to about a US11.5 while the 11.5UK is comparable to US 12.

some difference between measurements. hoping that i sized correctly in the new rey. 11.5UK = US12D?

Yeah, I can't wait to see your boots! If you don't upload pics the exact second you unpack them I will personally castrate you.
