Thanks! AE actually sized me in my White's size, so I think it might be safe to stick with my 9.5 EEE SD size. Now I just have to confirm White's will do a EEE width in the Otto. They said yes a few months back, so hopefully the answer is still the same.I can give it a shot, in my DT 1466 socks my brannock is 10.25E/10E L/R: I take a 9.5EEE in the 65 last but a 9.5EE would do if I didn't have to take into account my combined moderately high arch and instep; I take a 9EE in White's MP last and it fits pretty great overall; in both cases the shoe flexes at my arch and the taper is about the same with the MP being slightly more aggressive while having a shallower toebox.
If I had to quantify the differences I would say that the MP's have about a ¼" more space along the arch/ball and maybe a ¼" more generous instep, the 65 last runs a ¼" longer and hugs my heel a bit better.
Sizing was done in a pair of Fifth Avenue's and Kinney chukkas in suede.
Hopefully that was of help to you.
