Does anyone have any sizing experience with the Carmina Inca last? Working with the folks at The Armoury trying to nail my size down. I am a 9E UK in C&J, 9.5/10E in EG on all their lasts, 43 in F last, US 10D in Allen Edmonds, etc.

i have tryed the inca last and would assume that is is around a E width so get you EG size, it is a very comfortable last and both the wholecut and chelsea boot look great on the foot

Yeah, the folks at The Armoury (namely Alan and Jonathan) helped me through all the sizing issues. When correspondence via email was not working out too well, they gave me a call last night to figure out what size would fit me best. Really great service so far, especially considering the time difference and the sheer fact that they are on the other side of the world. Great to see another company (and forum affiliate) go to such efforts for customers who may never even see their actual retail store.

Thanks for the help by the way Luk-cha, it's good to hear.

This threak will be have pictures added soon

The guys at the Armory are really great - we had some discussion about the burgundy Carminas pictured and they were more than willing to help with comparison pictures and sizing help. I'm already budgeting for my next Carmina acquisition.

Yep, I need me some more suede in my line-up. Even though they are quickly catching up with the calf
