How does the Hiro compare to the New Rey in terms of width? I picked up a New Rey recently and I'd want to switch lasts for an MTO, but I love the width of the New Reys and don't want to risk getting a wider shoe. Also, is there any difference in the instep between the two lasts?Spoo, New Rey is far too pointy. I had the pair re-made with Hiro, which reminds me of C&J's rounder lasts.
I take it that the shoe you have is this model:
Sorry jsut saw this
After wearing them in i can say the Hiro is slightly wider around the arch + ball of foot vs the 337
I have to tighten my laces all the way for a snug fit.
My olfe MTO's should arrive in the post today/tomorrow for comparsison

New Rey is listed as an E- on the website while Hiro is listed as a standard E, so it must be a little wider. That said, ask Pepe.How does the Hiro compare to the New Rey in terms of width?

Hmm i thought the rain last On Carmina would be comparable to the 348 and Pepe told me to go for half size bigger on the New Rey Vis a vis the Rain

Thanks -- guess there's no point in switching lasts if the one area I'm happy with is different, and the one area I'm not remains unchanged.Hiro is definitely wider on the ball of foot. Not much, but enough to snugly fit a standard-sized foot. Instep is close to identical on both lasts.
