You can start with construction method and leather quality yes.
Material used for insoles, material used for outsoles, type of thread used for inseaming / welting, SPI on the uppers, SPI on the outsole stitching, cleanness and tidiness of these 2 stitches, hand stitched vs machine stitched outsoles, fudge work / stitch prick work on the welt, blind welting at the waist, brogueing done by hand. I won't mention antiqueing / patina work because it's too "subjective"....
To name a few.
^^^^both of you gents are correct if you are saying bang for the buck & value yes lol but we all spend 1000$ Plus on shoes that value ratio has far gone long time ago so buy whatever makes you happy !!

Looking to have a pair of wholecuts made. Initially heard the S and SP have lower insteps; however, Mr. Kuti stated that the S & SP's instep is higher compared to the U and F. Can those who own the S or SP comment on this?
Since the S & SP is longer/wider, I assume sizing is similar to F? Thanks for any clarification.

My advise is that if F last is tight get size 43 on P2. If F is a bit loose get 43.5 F. If F fits you snug and great and you decide to go for a pair of boots still consider to get 43.F. I my case to size down 0.5 would work. Suerte amigo.How does the F last compare to the P2 last? If I wear 43.5 F will a 43 P2 work?

There are always differences in value no matter at whatever price range. You just need to be able to identify it.
There are also differences in value to an individual. For example, I would pay more for a hand-welt but I don't actually care too much if the sole was hand-stitched or machine-stitched.
