I looked for the G&G shoes on KhakisocCarmel and didn't find them. I assume sold out.

^ I did an online search and did in fact find them but nothing in my size.

Look at the sale area, and not the link that was sent. Then press on each shoe to see the sizes remaining. All quite large I`m afraid, and interesting to note that the suede model had a sole that was not painted black at the middle, and didn't seem to have the raised part - any thoughts on this?

Seemless heel too

Very nice! Congrats.

I just ordered a new pair of RTW to ensure proper sizing before I do MTO. This forum is the reason my wallet is getting so much lighter!

Quick question regarding sizing:

I just received the Arran in 10.5 UK and 11 UK. The picture shown below is 11UK as I feel like I need the extra length of 11 compared to 10.5. What I am concerned about is the lacing, will it tighten up much more with the time passing by and be too narrow? Actually, the lacing seems fairly similar if I try on 10.5 UK, which confuses me even more!

Gentlemen, very happy and excited to get an image this afternoon of my perfect MTO which are completed now from G&G and can't wait for these beauties to come in. Hope to get them in 2-3 days now.
I choose the wholecut Deco last shoes which I absolutely love and got a custom patina on them done by the very talented G&G patina artist. They have surpassed all my expectations for the patina on this particular pair.

Your right foot is wider than your left, I observe in passing. Maybe you need to go down a width.

Thank you sir

Thank you very much for the reply. I actually noticed that my right feet is a bit longer than my left (right feet touching the end of the shoe but never the left one, in Carmina Simpson 10.5 UK), but never thought about its width.

By going down a width, what exactly would you recommend? Does that mean going rather 11D UK instead 11E UK or taking different widths for each feet?
