Am strongly considering ordering an MTO pair of Dark Oak Winchelseas as a Birthday present to myself.
If one has to go MTO to get the style and width one wants anyways, what are folks' thoughts on split sized pairs? My feet are shaped extremely similarly, but are a half size difference. I find I always have to sacrifice the fit of one shoe for the other. Especially for loafers and other slip-ons, which I find tongue pads and other additions always inevitable.
If there is no price difference or a minimal one, would not make best sense to get a split sized pair to ensure the best fit for both feet? Isn't it the same principle that bespoke makers follow?
Maybe I’m missing something but why wouldn’t you do this?
