Shoe experts needed: Church's 73 vs C&J 341

[Trojanman74]

ive been looking for a darker suede captoe with medallion for a couple months now. i think ive found it in church's perth. my question is i fit nicely into the F width on the 341 but i can also fit comfortably into a D width in AE. and being that no place around here sells church's, would i better going off with a G width or a F width in church's? also since its suede wont it be a little more forgiving then calf?

Church's run a tad smaller volume-wise than C&J. For you a 12G should work.

Which last?

I agree with bigbris - C&J "F" is akin to Church's "G". Also the 73 last is smaller than their other lasts so I would definitely go for the "G" fit.

Perth in suede will be a lovely shoe
