Can anyone give me a catalog link for the Lloyd? I've looked all over the 80s and can't find it. I think these are PC but trying to verify. thanks.

Those model numbers beginning in zero will not appear in any catalogs. They were either made for a wholesale account or a special promotion. 1984

My Broadstreet update is "good news/bad news." The good news is that the shoes look terrific. A little burnishing on the toes and I hope they are all this nice. The bad news, although not unexpected, is that they are too tight and will have to go back. I shall take comfort in wearing some MacNeils.

What sizing did you buy in vs. your other shoes? Where was it tight?

The MacNeils and Leeds I have work at 11.5EEE. I have a Chester and a MacNeil at 12EEE and both feel a little large. Most of my Aldens are 11EEE. The Broadstreet was 11.5EEE and it was tight across the top, wide V gap and tight across the top of the toes. Given the feel of the Broadstreet, it doubt that going up to a 12 will solve all of the issues. The next stop would be 13EEE will likely be too large in some areas. I am used to these issues from AE lasts. Oh well, it is what it is.

You went back to 11.5EEE for Leeds?

I wore your old black shell 11.5s yesterday! I thought you’d gone to 12EEE

Yeah, I checked and my Leeds are 12EEE. This, shoe pals, is an example of when your forum buddies have a better idea of what you have in your closet and their size than you do. :)
