Wet and nasty out. Tossed on the Calhoun this morning. Does anyone know what last they're on? I've had them for awhile but never knew the last.
UNIFORM LA Japanese BDU Camo Cargo Pants Drop, going on right now.

Good luck!.

I'm torn... I'm up in Canada so selection is limited. I love shortwing brogues so the Walnut McAllister is what I'm aiming for but they don't sell that here.
The closest thing I have available is the Richmond Street which is basically a McAllister on 201 last instead of 65. I actually have trouble fitting 65, and the 201 fits fairly well on me so everything works out except for the part where they don't make it in Walnut!
I feel like I should make a trip down to the states to try on the different widths since we only have D or EEE I'm Canada. Maybe I can make the 65 last work... I hate how much I want Walnut.
I've been considering the First Ave boot. Neo's fit guide says to use 65 last sizing on the 201,which the First Ave is lasted. Does that fit (har har) with what the rest of you did?
For the First Ave boot, I found myself sizing down a width from my 65 size ( or sizing down a half length from my brannock size).
Nice! I wish my Dundees had rubber soles, so much more practical.
Same here, but note I size up a width from my Brannock for the 65 - I'm an 11D in most lasts, but need an 11E in 65-lasted balmorals (shell may be an exception, as may be suede - currently evaluating both). The 201 is more generous in the toe box and has substantially more instep room; I go with 11D which works well.
That's probably a good place to start.I'm an 11.5D in my 65 last, and all my bal gaps close quite well, so likely on the narrow side of D width. Maybe I should check out 11.5C?
Nordstrom can and will bring in anything the US stores carry. That's an option for dialing in size, if there's one near you.

That's something I'll consider. Still have a fit issue; I've tried 65 last on D and EEE in various lengths but no luck... They don't stock any E or EE so I'm wondering if they'll ship some up for the sake of trying... Sounds unlikely unless I pay upfront
You can order any current shoe (not sure the Rogue would qualify anymore) in their shell colors for $650 plus a $150 or $100 (I can't remember anymore) fee.
Yup looking good I have this shoe but up for sale just does not fit me with high instep but like I said looking good on you!

Actually no they may fit better but odd thing is I hear the 201 is better for high instep but the Rogue I returned since it was super tight in the vamp. Seems the 201 boots fit me great have a few but the 201 shoes don't always fit. But was just thinking my Shannon Drives are 201 shoes and they fit great. Not sure I guess the 201 is hit or miss for me seems odd as the last should mostly be the shape of the foot it fits. But you know what they say stranger things have happened than this...Have you tried the 2.0? With the 201 last?
