Hello to everybody, I an the market for a black lace chukka boot style with decent quality and durability and less expensive than churchs or C&J , I also need a sleek last since I have narrow feet. I have look at the cheaney jackie at Herringshoes but I an not sure if this is a sleek last, Sanders Monaco seems another option but not sure about the last either. Would anyone make some sugestions or recomendations?, any input would be very much appreciated

Best regards

The Loake Kempton isn't bad. Not exactly sleek, but not overly blobby.

Thanks a lot, that´s the only one I could try already and the last doesn not fit me at all, is either big or if i size down is bothering at the toe area. Sanders monaco lookas nice to me, any experience with the quality of the sandres diplomat line?

best regards

It's pretty much the same level as Loake 1880.
