Shoe Fit: Brannock Device vs Your real world size.

[Claus]



^But only provided that the lasts he chooses are of the same proportion as his feet.

I meant it the other way around: He makes the absolute proportions of the last similar to those of his feet by tweaking the size, and consequently, the inner "volume". While the volume may then be correct, the length of the shoe is not, strictly speaking.

Your image demonstrates this perfectly, in my opinion. It's a great shot.
