Hello to all,
I'm new here and firstly would like to introduce myself. I've been following the forum a couple of months as a guest and finally decided to post. As a fan of Mr. Flusser (call me strange but I've actually read 3 of his books), I find it interesting that he states that the shape of a shoe should be rather straight on the inside (i.e. the instep pointing more towards the big toe) and curved along the outside. Yet, aside from his own collection and a few bespoke and rtw makers (Edward Green 82 last? and John Lobb) not many manufacturers produce such a shape. Hence, my question is, are there any other brands of shoes that make a shoe with the, as some have called, banana last? Thanks in advance for your time.
