Go to ANY shoe store, and get your foot measured on a brannock ( forgive me if that's not possible in Australia). Then email Meermin and ask the source. I have found them to be very helpful. Good luck. Those are some great looking shoes.this is going to be a fairly ridiculous question, but i'm hoping for some rough sizing advice even though i don't know my exact brannock size.
although i have several expensive pairs of sneakers (common projects, raf, etc), i've never needed a pair of dress shoes until now. the closet thing i own is a pair of dr. marten 1461s in a UK 10 which are maybe a tiiiiny bit too short on my right foot, but plenty wide due to their shape/last. i have previously owned red wing postman oxfords in a US 11 as well. in terms of sneakers, i'm pretty much a US 12 across the board (vans, nike, etc).
i'm looking at a pair of 101509s (https://www.meermin.es/articulo.php?idArt=4288#), and am leaning towards a UK 10 or 10.5, but obviously it's a big gamble (i live in australia as well, so shipping them back would be expensive). i also like the 101534 model, but they don't seem to offer them with a rubber sole.
is measuring my foot on paper an option if i don't have access to a brannock?
Haven't seen these, they look great. Where can you get these from?
Hi,

Can anyone compare the fit of the Olfe last to the Allen Edmonds 5 last? I wear a 10.5 D in the AE 5 last (Kenilworth), and I cant decide if I need a 9.5UK in the Olfe last, or if I should go up to 10 because in case it is a very narrow last.
The Olfe feels similar to the 5 last in D width. I have E width feet and sizing one down on the Olfe is too narrow, while sizing half down makes the shoe too long.
Did you mean sizing half up makes it too long? Do you recommend I go with a 9.5UK Olfe if I am a 10.5D in Allen Edmonds 5 last?
