Broadstreet arrived…. Too small in my normal 10.5D. Need to get both 11D and 10.5E I think to find out if either work
The 73 last is just like the 108. Because of the cone, oxfords are quite tricky or undoable for some people.

I ran into the same issue with some original Broadstreets I bought…normal 65 sizing (11 3E) won’t work. My 511 size is 11.5 2E and thought I could make the 11.5 E Broadstreet work. Nope, that was pretty wrong. I’m considering 11.5 3E or even 12 E. Basically, they were too short/toe crunch was a lot.

Yeah it wasn’t as bad as the 108 for me, which actually was ok on the width and length, but couldn’t hold my heel! This was smaller and wouldn’t hold the ball of my foot

Well, the Broadstreets arrived. The left is a 10eee and the right is 10.5d. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.

I was scratching my head trying to figure out why you would order two dramatically different sizes. It wasn't until Ashley posted that I figured out what happened. Now that, has never happened to me.
