I put together this little Carmina last comparison, I hope no one beat me to it.

Our most popular lasts are Forest, Rain and Simpson. Soller, Oscar and Detroit are also very popular, but unfortunately I was out of stock in the Detroit last so I could not include it. Here is a link to out website with the guide: http://www.skoaktiebolaget.se/pages/carmina-last-comparison

And for your convenience, here are the pictures:

I've been thinking about getting a MTO short-wing on the Soller last. Will that model be available or was it an MTO?

Thanks!

Hello, that is an old model that we only had one pair left in as odd stock.

The pictures are 1200 px wide, I think that should be large enough to get a good view. All pictures are of UK 9 sized pairs. All pictured lasts are in the Carmina default width.


Leaves,
You still recommend the same size for both Soller and Rain. The lengthwise, are they the same length?

Those are both absolutely stunning, but I'm curious - why the same colour for both?


Patrik was trying to get me to go with almond country calf for the Alderley...this may be my next purchase...

Those boots are incredible! (especially the Galways) Do you know if there will be another MTO of that kind ?

I think it is time again to have a group MTO for Galways... in Edwardian uppers and Almond Country calf for the shaft, flat welt, ALL eyelets, and double leather sole. :)

Who's with me? :slayer:
