Does anyone know which last the John Lobb Kiplings are on?
I've tried asking this elsewhere on the forum with no response....

I have a pair of 9E Kiplings in New Gold Museum that fit my (about) 10D foot quite well.
Pretty much my favorite pair.
What else do you need to know?

I'm generally a 9D in US sizes.

Lobb's 8000 last in an 8E is the best fitting shoe/last I've ever worn.

I have the Kipling (on the 4596) in 8.5E and it is a tiny bit tight in the forefoot/instep, but otherwise a very good fit.
