Sineu is only EE, and seems to be in between rain and forest. I'm also a forest EEE, so I was glad they allowed us to change lasts on the shell chukkas.

I have not tried this last personally since I'm a lady.

However, our CEO mentioned the instep is very generous and anyone comfortable in Rain or Forest would find it perfect. As per the toe area, it should be more spacious than rain and a tad smaller than forest.

Trying to see if I can order my first pair of Carminas. I see the Rain last offered in standard, wide, and EEE fitting according to their description. Two questions in particular for this cordovan model on sale: https://www.carminashoemaker.com/dress-shoes-summer-sale/wholecut-oxfords-natural-cordovan-910

1 - Description says standard fitting for the natural color model - how does this compare to AE 201 last? (Neumok 2.0) or 511 last? (Dalton dress boots)

2 - It looks I can order a size that's not in stock and still get the sale price. How long has folks in the same boat typically waited to get their shoes?

@Carmina

Thanks!
