you make that sound like its a bad thing. Think how long your shoes will last with a 20 pair rotation and basic shoe care :p

I'm on board with this lol.

Took a few shots of my rotation, below are my Meermin pairs:

Brown Doublemonks-Hiro Last (first pair from them and most worn of the 4):
700


Brown Tassel Loafers-Ron Last (ordered in the Madrid store and second most worn of the 4)


Brown Museum Calf GMTO-Olfe Last (Got these in Madrid; leftover pair from the SF GMTO)
700


Chocolate Suede Doublemonks-Hiro Last

Those brown musuems look good lucky bugger picking up the spare :) prefer the punched toe cap, might register my interest for the GMTO.

I have 101381 on RON last and 101341 on HIRO, both in 10.5. True, Meermin and many others say that RON is the same as HIRO, just for loafers, yet it isn't exactly - I find the RON to be a bit sleeker in the front part than HIRO, while being substantially wider in the ankle and heel area.

Agreed. I suspect people with wider feet actually need to size up for RON last...

For what it's worth, I had an email this morning from Pepe confirming that Meermin is no longer doing single order MTOs.

Shame,
It does now: RUI. Too wide for me.

Shame, looks like it'll be a pass then.

New to Meermin and am still waiting for my first order so I can get a feel for sizes before I order more. Been over 30 days, but looks like the Tan Country Calf Oxfords are holding things up. Tempted to just tell them to ship the other pair which is ready first.

GMTOs can still be organized, not only through their website. I have written an email to clarify it.

Hopefully this helps speed things up for them if they aren't getting caught up with individual mto orders now.
