C&J lasts

bullethead · Feb 4, 2009

Grimslade, how tall are you, if you don't mind me asking?

I agree the 348 looks long but I find when it's on my foot it isn't bad at all.

But the 360 last I think is the one that catches the eye at the moment. Predominantly to be found in the Far East

Hi Guys,

I'm 5'11" or so. And wear a size 12 shoe. Graham, I like the Wembley a lot.

+1 on the Wembley + add me on the Malton list. What sizes do you get there?

Seldom you see a burgundy C&J. I like it very much. How does the 360 compare to say 341&348 in fitting? Similar?

Salsalocust · Mar 1, 2009

The 360, I gather is primarily a last for Japan and parts thereabouts.

However, I regularly wear the "Maidwell" 360 last on the same UK 8E I wear the majority of my shoes.

Regards,

Graham

What about flat feet in C&J?

Some of the C&J lasts, like the 240, are high-arched (like the Alden Barrie). If your foot is flat enough, it feels like there is something under your foot, just forward the heel.

Has anyone (besides jmonroestyle, who thinks some models of the 341 might work for flat feet) taken note of which C&J lasts are better for feet with high arches, and which lasts are better for flat feet?

I have the Westfields on the 341 last that fit me well. I am considering buying the Sydney loafer, which is also on the same last. Should I stay with the same size (6E) or size down (5.5E)?

Very nice. I like the 360 last.

sf_esq · Mar 1, 2009

The 360 has grown on me as well. Shame it's not easily available. I can't wait to make a pilgrimage to the CJ factory store. One of these days...

Anyone know how the sizing on the 360 last is? true to size 8.5UK-9US?

I asked Salsalocust the same question, unless I misunderstood, I believe that one would wear the same size in the 348 and 360 last. It appears to be on the longer, narrower and slightly pointer side. It almost looks like the 348, but with a round, rather than a chiseled toe. It may also fit those who wear the 337, but I didn't ask.

I have a pair on the 360. I wear them the same size as most of my other C&J lasts, which is one full size below my US size.

Hi Guys,

As most of you now appreciate, I like to post shoes of interest.... rather than details of when I intend to sell them

and this one is a 'special'

Recently I wore the C&J Wigmore (360 last) at a local shop here in Holland. The 360 last shoes are only available in mto-programs or by ordering at the c&j.fr site.

In my experience the 360 last is almost the same as the 348. I own 341 and 348 pairs. It's just a bit narrower at the nose.

The Wigmore:

For what it's worth, the 360 is slightly larger for me than the 348. Both are elongated, but my 348 is noticeably snugger on my foot than the 360.
