Short photosession for the Cherwell

















First try:



Extremely soft and comfortable, no break-in is needed.
Now I confess - I was wrong saying earlier that 202 last is same narrow as 888, obviously I tried wrong size that time.



PS This is my usual UK9,5/10 the only difference is width D.

The E with is about 1/16 of an inch wider. Go up a half size for the perfect fit if all you can find is a D width.

What I meant was 7.5/8E (UK/US sizing). An EG "E," from my experience is nether US "D" nor "E," but rather somewhere in between.
