These look so good but I'm sure if I got them they wouldn't be wide enough.

those who took their usual UK size in Carlos Santos (as in not sizing down a half a size in uk), did you experience any heel slippage on the 401 last?

I went down 1.5 from Allen Edmonds Park Avenue to the Carlos Santos Cap Toe Oxford which I think is the 401 last. That was perfect for me.

Does anyone have experience with last 366? I've seen a pair of boots on this last online, but have no clue what the fit is of this particular last.

Just received my first pair of new Carlos Santos shoes, however there is a ''dent'' on the toebox. Is this something to worry about long term wise? With other words will it likely get worse and thus should I trade them in for a new pair or is it acceptable and nothing to worry about? Opinions would be much appreciated!
