Length 260mm width 105mm. Which size should I go for on the Hiro last?

Can anyone kindly advise on this? I wear a 8E an AE's 5 last. Slightly tight length wise, width can go a little more snug!

For owners of both Meermin and Carmina suede, is there any major difference in the two that is worth the price hike?

I have the same measurements as your feet. 28 cm long, 11.2 cm wide (left foot 11 cm though). I wear a UK10 in Hiro, which fit well. I normally wear UK10, or 9,5 in wider fit shoes. 8UK would be ridiculous for me.

Same here. 28cm long, 11cm at the widest part. I have the Hiro DMs in 10UK and they fit alright now. (At first, there was a bit of heel slip and I was afraid it was too loose, but nowadays it seems fine) I think a 9.5UK would still be OK, but anything smaller would definitely be too tight.

Don't own any suede pair from either Carmina or Meermin, but Meermin use split suede (cheaper, less refined) for their classic range, and reversed calf (full leather, higher quality, thicker) for their Linea Maestros. Carmina only use reversed calf, and those I've seen in person and looks to be of quite good quality with great luster.

I'm waiting for prices from Pepe and then we'd need definite in or out comments from people. I'd say Olfe is the last we're aiming for.

Now that the MTO austerity brogue boots are almost here, is anyone up for a Jodhpur MTO on New Rey (preferably New Rey for maximal awesomeness) or Olfe? Here is some inspiration. AS midnight blue calf. Sweet as hell.
I might be interested too. Maybe we could do two versions? One in navy calf and the other in the hatch grain leather. I am interested in Olfe last though.
