Ive read conflicting info on the fit of the Cheaney 175 last.

When converting to US size, is the difference a full, or half size?

(I wear a US 7.5D, should I be ordering a 6.5F, or 7F?)

If it helps: The fit seems to be similar to the Loake's Legend last and Cheaney's 2003 last in the same size and width, judging from one member's ratings.

Cheaney 175/F = Allen Edmonds #7 E width + 0.5 length

Thus, from my personal experience, the AE Macneil longwing in size 10E fits 99% the same as the Herring Grassmere longwing (made by Cheaney) in European size 9.5F.
