They are and I want them. We shall see.

He has the same on 10.5UK but those are 11UK. My EG 10.5 Westminster on E888 fit like a glove. How does the 202 compare? He lists it as narrow and it's a half size bigger than my EGs..

202 is more generous than 888. however the shoe you want is in an uber narrow b width.

that pair will probably be too small for you. youd need a uk11b 202 to match your uk10.5e 888

mrjester, did you decide to keep the westminster? from your sig it looks like you made the right decision. i recently sold my carmina double monks and opted to keep the JL double monks. I think its safe to say that once you get either the EG Westminster or JL William, the Carmina double monks become expendable

Edward Green Brown Wingtip Brogue Last 202 Balmoral UK 11 B

So I should be alright then?

You may be confused, he has two sizes. The 10.5 and 11. Both b202. Thankfully the 11b is used and cheaper so maybe he would accept a trade for a different brand.. in my signature.. worth a shot.

I made that choice, yep. I wasn't wearing them right. I raised my pants and gave them a 2" cuff and now the monks display quite well.

I love the Carminas actually. I've said it before, I really have no business in EG's unless they're on sale or used. Carmina is where I can financially reside and their shoes are great. The Inca last just doesn't cut it for me though. I want to sell these to either get used EG's or a Simpson double monk to possibly dye a deep deep green. For 'funzies'.

I also suck at selling and had no idea I was listing the EG's so high. I realized I was slapping Patrik in the face basically. I won't find these NIB for $600 again so they're staying with me forever. And ever.
