Hello,

could somebody explain me the differences between the 100 and the 73 Church's last please? I have rather slim feet so which one would probably fit better?

Thanks in advance!

Last 100 is a little bit longer than the 73, and the width is about the same. I wear 85F in the last 100 and 90F in the 73 (for C&J last 337 I wear 8.5E, Tricker's last 1829 in 9F, Alfred Sargent last 104 in 9F).

The toe box on the 100 last is longer and higher than on the old 73, which gives the shoe a very different appearance. You should try both on to determine fit, since you may find (depending upon the overall shape of your foot) that the 100 is a better fit, but my guess is that the 73 will likely fit better, unless your foot is particularly long.
