How does the Loake capital last compare to the Cheaney 11028? I wear a 8.5 in the capital but unfortunately can't get an 8.5 in the Cheaney (on sale and sold out), would I be better going down to an 8 or up to a 9? Any input appreciated.

11028 is long and narrow compared to the Capital. Suggest you try the same size as a starting point. Sizing the 11028 up half a size would make it too long in most cases. I wear a 10.5UK in both but where the Capital fits me comfortably but with still some small wiggle room in the width and heel, the 11028 is more tight. I find the Cheaneys to be a lighter shoe than the Capital too.

Thanks! What about an instep, which shoe last is better for higher instep?
