Thank you.
I watched the video and looked at Shoe Snob website, but I didn't find information about Norvegese construction

Does Passus manufacture shoes in Norvegese construction? Thanks
Here are some examples:

Check out Justin from The Shoe Snob Official: Up Close Details Series - Passus Shoes


As always, honest and to the point.
Do you agree with his review?

Beautiful pair of shoes! Is that Janus reverse calf suede? I suppose it's black, but might it actually be a sort of deep olive-ish or grey-ish brown?

Also, did you guys go ahead with a modification to the 2000 last? I understood that you were reducing the instep?

Hello! Can you let us know the differences between your lasts? The images are not so clear for me. What is the difference between Last 3000, 4000, and 5000?

I understand that Last 1000 is like Vass F last and Last 2000 is kinda like Vass U last.

Thank you.

We will show some photos for comparison and explain the differences, very soon.

New member here. I’ve been a long time wearer of Heinrich Dinkelacker’s Milano last. I am coming to Budapest later in 2022. Do you have a workshop or showroom there where I could come by and try on the different lasts and discuss MTO as well?
Thanks,
Lars,
San Francisco, CA

Hi Lars,
Yes, there is a showroom in Budapest. Please contact us, before your trip, so we can arrange the appointment!
Excellent - thank you for the quick reply. I am going to reach out when I know the exact timing of my trip - Covid has delayed it already a couple of times :)

Admitetly, I haven't read through the whole thread. If one wants to make modifications to existing models, how much does Passus charge? I.e. adding a punched cap toe, changing colour or something minor along those lines.

Was able to score a pair of the Jonathan at Sartoriale's recent Easter sale. Very impressed with the quality of the shoe both the material and craftsmanship and the 4000 last fits perfectly with my semi-wide feet. I look forward to breaking them in!
