Thinking about some loafers this morning. I already have a Monaco in Vintage Oak and will probably get one in Vintage Cedar. But what is the next choice? I'm kind of torn between Oak Hatch Grain and Vintage Rioja. Thoughts?
Hi guys, looking for some sizing advice, I am Uk 7E for last 348, 337,373 and also uk7E for john lobb 7000, all of these are also not too tight.
i am interested in irganise a MTO or RTW inGG, I was told to order 7.5uk but not sure if that’s right or not. And when order different last (possibly deco square, MH71) any difference in sizing ?
I am most interested in Mayfair
Thanks
I find DG70<TG73<MH71Uk 7.5E would be the right size based on your other sizes. For the most part the G&G lasts all fit the same but some people have said they found the TG73/DG70 lasts to be a little narrow but it certainly depends on the wearer.
Thanks a lot. Hard to try in the size as in Australia and no place to tryUk 7.5E would be the right size based on your other sizes. For the most part the G&G lasts all fit the same but some people have said they found the TG73/DG70 lasts to be a little narrow but it certainly depends on the wearer.

Is that the narrow-ness or the length?I find DG70<TG73<MH71
Length I think is the same. I was referring to the volume overall. The DG70 for me feels tighter/narrower. And I understand that each person's foot is different but, at the same time, the fact that for some people this differential in volume exists, that tells you that there must me some truth to it in an objective sense.Is that the narrow-ness or the length?
They come only in full sizes so take a half size down. For example, if you G&G shoe size is 8 or 8.5 you would take Skoaktiebolaget shoes in size 8 UK.Anyone try Skoaktiebolaget shoe trees? Did you simply take the same size as your GG UK size?

Thanks for the feedback. I’m going for a TG73 in the lower end of the size (.0 as opposed to .5), so hoping the corresponding Skoak tree size will fit well. G&G aren’t cheap, but I have a hard time justifying $200 trees. I also think the Skoaks look better. Any other feedback is much appreciated.I've also found that the skoak trees work better on certain GG lasts than others. I have a 10.5E MH71 arran which takes the UK10 skoak tree very well (arguably as well as the GG), however my DG70 rothschilds in the same size don't take to the skoak tree as well. I'd venture that for a rounder last you may want to size down one more size but I don't have the comparisons to prove it.
