Thanks Jeff, I appreciate the response. It was the Rain last for sure (u tip in tobacco suede). I just happen to have extra wide duck feet.
Thanks again for the clarification.
Hey Pepper,
I think you may be confusing two of the lasts. The Rain last is on the wider side of the lasts that Carmina offers. It has a wider forefoot, a higher instep, and a relatively generous toe box. The proprietary version we created, called the "Rain Modified" last, makes the forefoot at the ball of the foot a bit wider and tightens the heel slightly.
I think if you tried on a pair that was extremely narrow, you were probably trying the Simpson last. That is one of Carmina's narrowest lasts and the shape is quite similar to the Rain last as they are both chiseled toes.
Let me know if that helps.
Jeff
