Thanks for the update.

How long, typically, from lasting to shipping?

To be honest, I'm not sure. I will ask Pepe for a time estimate

I agree Namor, I love the fit of the Olfe.

I have 337 in UK9.5 and UK10 in Olfe. Olfe hugs my foot, can't describe it any other way. It's probably the best fitting last that I've had-length and width-wise and I've possessed a lot of shoes..

So you size up half for Olfe from C&J? What's your size for JL and EG/G&G?

Agreed. It really hugs about every part of the foot without being uncomfortable; reminds me of of how G&G and EG shoes feel. 337 and forest are both feel about 1/4 sizes bigger than olfe

My shoe size is closer to a small US11D.

EG 82-10.5/11E
EG888-10/10.5E
EG202 10/10.5E
EG606 10/10.5E
G&G Westbury and Savoy (forgot lasts)-10.5 E
JL 8000-10
JL 7000-10, but probably could do a 9.5
C&J 348= UK9.5
Carmina Rain and Forest UK10
AE-11US
Vass-44 F-last

I am sure that I am missing some C&J and JL lasts, amongst others

DM owners, do the holes for the buckle seem too small? My holes are small - looks like it was pricked with a needle instead of a leather hole punch

I just got in a pair of DMs last week and the holes are the right size for the buckle and there's no extra material around them.

I think I'll try the olfe last after these recent comments. If I can figure out what to wear with those navy LMs I'll grab a pair of those before they're out.

First wear. Had to change into something a little more comfortable after work. Blue polish on pants is from a pair of Alden suedes I colored from white to blue:
