Thanks to Daniel and everyone at Cobbler Union, I believe I have five pairs in my stable and enjoy them all. My suede chukkas are the perfect travel shoe, I've walked all over Italy and Germany in those guys and they still look almost new 6 years later! Very impressive build quality, and they look good too.

I bought this pair that was called Alex uR a few years ago, built with the 312 last but I don't know if the model is still available.
Thank you. Seems like they no longer carry it. Too bad, it's an awesome-looking shoe.

I find TLB roomier in the forefoot, but the heel and waist are more narrow.
Idem, vamp and forefoot are spacious, heel and arch narrow, at least on Artista line. My feet are better suited por Main soles I've learned.

Can anyone comments on the 750 last? Looking at loafers and trying to figure out my size.

I just ordered and received a pairs of oxford goya last from Korea cause they have discount there.it cost 370$ for everything.
The leather is harder compare to Carmina and the stitching sole around the waist is quite ugly. Fit amazing cause it’s narrow. One pair of my shoe have a little scratch, not noticeable.
The finishing is not the best but the form is amazing, very beautiful on my feet.
This is just my opinion

Here’s my new CU 2X Monks. Very good fit - was nervous ordering via UK sizing, as I’m a Brannock 12 D. Enjoying the Vibram soles.

Just updating my own post. This was originally posted in the Cobbler Union affiliate thread but that got closed out. Anyways I picked up a 9.5 UK from their sample collection and I'm blown away by the quality. Its a 1 of 1 sample Smith loafer in Castor brown suede with JR sole. Very impressed with quality and fit.
