question - has anyone experienced any variation in GG sizing across the same last? i got a pair of TG73 and it seems to be a half size bigger than others i have tried on. i'm pretty sure i'm not confused on UK vs US sizing either

Well.. the thing is that I just booked a meeting with them whilst in London and we discussed and the only thing I was sure of was whole cut and not black. Tony presented some ideas that we tweaked a bit. The color is Vintage Pine Calf and the last is tg73. I've instructed them to go rough on the antiquing..

Nice shoes! How's the fit? Any close shots of the sole waist stitching?

No experience besides the toe box volume variations.

Edit...read your post wrong. No i have tried several models in the sam last and no variation.

Yes i have. I wear UK7.5 in GG06 and MH71 and UK8 in DG70 and TG73. I own shoes in DG70 and MH73 and have tried the other lasts including UK7.5 F in DG70. That didn´t work at all, my feet are E width.

Promised some pictures of my bespoke G&G's At first fitting did they look like this: Daniel went back and worked some more and sent me below picture last night. They looked like this before final touch: Received another picture today... After magic touch from Tony: I think they look amazing... Shipped today.. Can't wait to try them on again. If you guys want... I can post some more pictures showing the opening ceremony :worship:
