Hey guys,

Does anyone have both loding and meermin shoes and can comment on the sizing? I've heard both use the same size. Can anyone confirm?

I was in the Madrid shop last mont, it was interesting to see all the models in person. Last year I ordered the rapello chukka and had to returned it because the color was a lot lighter than in the pictures, also the sole was a bit different. But the model in the shop was exactly the same than in the pictures.

Does anyone have the suede PTBs (and would they care to post a couple of photos)? I can't seem to find any IRL photos of the shoes online.

These? Just got them yesterday off eBay. 3 eyelet in dark brown Janus suede from their LM line on the new rey last, but I've never seen them on their website.

Quite comfortable and I like the styling. A steal at $100 listed as "seconds" with imperceptible irregularities.

They look great and $100 a steal indeed! I was referring to these.

I hope this is the right place to ask, but I'm curious if someone could help me figure out the sizing of Meermin. I wear a 10D in AE Mora 2.0. Meermin told me I should wear a 9UK from them, but AE says their 10D is equal to a 9.5UK. Anyone have experience with them?

Just fyi, my feet are slightly wide, but not wide enough for me to wear wide shoes. It just takes a few weeks for the shoes to stretch and not cause pain.

Your sizing will depend on the meermin last your shoe is in.

I'm a US 11 in AE, take a 10uk on the hiro and olfe lasts, 10.5uk on the new rey.

They're sizing advice is usually good - when in doubt they'll provide measurements that you can use to determine if you'll fit.

I'm the same size and agree with this advice on sizing.

Not sure as I don't know those, but email them - they are very responsive and can make a recommendation. They'll also give you the exact measurements of their various lasts in your suggested size so you can measure your foot to ensure sizing.

Others might know more.

My heel is more narrow than avg, so i get heel slippage on lasts that have full wide heel.


i have the same issue with heels in most shoes...although AE park avenues last seems to fit well....given this whats your favored meermin last?
