Bontoni Wholecut from Wilkes Bashford SF with Medallion and Punching in 9D US

[pkincy]

These are a pair of Bontoni Wholecuts from Wilkes Bashford in SF. I suspect they are a direct copy of the Kiton design, but when asked the operator of WBs Shoe Department told me that Kiton had copied Bontoni's design. You decide, I have no idea and it rally doesn't matter as it is one of the nicest wholecuts I have seen.

Sorry. 9D US. I wear 8.5/9E UK sizing in EG and 8.5E in JL and 42 or 42.5 in Vass if that helps and these fit in accordance with those shoes.

My Purple Label by EG are 8.5/9D and in my view are a bit tighter than the EGs from England in 8.5/9E UK sizing. But that could be the EG 888 last that was used extensively by RLPL when they worked with EG.
