I found a couple of pairs of CS 160 last boots on eBay. They look pretty narrow, and of the shoes I have, the Meermins seem to fit the closest so I used it as an example for comparison. Do you happen to have more insight on the 160s? Thanks!
Not really sorry, it is very chiseled, advice is true to size and 1 full size down from your regular US. If the Meermin fits you well, I would choose the same honestly. An insole works wonders. Better than it being too tight.

These look great. Is it possible to get a pair of these in espresso brown?

As a MTO sure. Comes with a surcharge though for single pairs. They can even do double leather sole, handgrade etc.

Since this thread is way too quiet (I really wonder why!) here's some models from the Carlos Santos FW 2020/21 Collection I saw in the factory visit last month. They were just revealed in Micam Milano 2020.

Anything catches your eye?

They look awesome! Actually the bimaterial boots look epic
Anything is open for making. Leather, Color, Sole you are more than welcome to decide on something and start some GMTO interest check but I am not allowed. Thank you for the feedback it really helps me. I liked the boot too and the Austerity Chukka a lot.

The Austerity Chukka is really very nice. What last is this one on? The 397?

I want to but I couldn't even buy the regular double monks, my fiancé caught me and said no more shoes until all wedding expenses are paid!
I didn't even get a suit yet!
