Hello everyone. Quick newbie to Carmina question.

I recently got a pair of MTO Forest last oxford cap toes. Very good fit lengthwise and in width.

However, when I put my weight on them, I feel the insole at the arch of my feet to be extremely stiff and uncomfortable, painful even. Maybe it's the shank? Mind you that I have flat feet and overpronate, but I have 2 pairs of TLB Artista and a pair of TLB Alan lasted shoes, as well as other non GYW shoes (blakes and cemented) and have never experienced something similar.

Anyone else ever experience something like this? Thanks!

Yep. They resurrected it from their archive upon my request in 2020. A few people have reached out to me for the model number, so there are probably a couple of other versions floating out there. Mine in C4. I didn't specify stormwelt, but Carmina added it any way :)

Could you share some more photos of this, showing the last shape from above if possible?
