Our LastsUpdated a year ago

Difficulty choosing between our lasts? Here you can find a description of each one. 



CITY: This last has a contemporary round-toe and offers a very generous fit while still maintaining a very elegant silhouette. Wear it true to size.

LOUVRE: The Louvre is a stylish soft square last that offers the same generous fit as the City but tapers at the toe to achieve its unique look. Wear it true to size.

888: Launched in 2019, has rapidly become one of our most popular lasts. It offers a roomy toe box while maintaining an elegant silhouette and a subtle soft square toe. Size down a half size from your normal shoe size. Wear true to size if you have wide feet.

371: Launched in 2019, this last offers a classic English round toe shape. A great alternative to City for men looking for a shorter last, 371 offers a classic aesthetic as well as a very comfortable medium width and a roomy instep. Wear it true to size.

MONACO: This last gives our penny loafers a spectacular European flair while offering the level of comfort you expect on a loafer. Size down a half size from your normal shoe size. Wear true to size if you have wide feet.

RITZ: Some boots are simply too elegant to be mounted on a typical round-toe boot last. You'll love the Ritz's soft-square toe. It's fit is almost identical to the Louvre. Wear it true to size.

SOHO: While we hope you take our boots off-road, they are really designed for the city. The Soho offers the perfect combination of country-side ruggedness and urban elegance. Wear it true to size.Consider sizing up half a size if your feet are a bit wider than normal. 

312: Our widest and roundest last, the 312 last offers a comfortable fit without being bulky or chunky. This is the last we use on our uR collection. Size down a half size from your normal shoe size. Wear true to size if you have wide feet.

750: Launched in 2020,  the 750 is classic loafer last offering a contemporary almond shaped toe while providing generous fit throughout. Wear it true to size.

357: Launched in 2022. This last is part of a new generation of lasts offering true-to-size fit and added comfort at the ball (widest area) of your foot. The 357 last also offers a spectacular silhouette accented by a handsome square chisel-toe. This last shares the exact same body, volume and fit of the 358 last. Wear 357 true to size.

358: Launched in late 2021. This last is part of a new generation of lasts offering true-to-size fit and added comfort at the ball (widest area) of your foot. The 358 last also offers a spectacular silhouette accented by a subtle soft-square (almost round) chisel-toe. This last shares the exact same body, volume and fit of the 357 last. Wear 358 true to size.

435: Launched in 2022, we designed the 435 for everyday comfort. A shorter, rounded toe with a generous fit at the ball of the foot and a standard instep, this last was made for a no-fuss, easy fitting loafer. Wear 435 true to size.

780: Launched in 2023, the 780 last offers a generously fitting rounded toe for a comfortable fit without being bulky or chunky. It’s an ideal shape for a refined American-style silhouette on both boots and shoes. Wear 780 true to size.

All of our lasts are medium width designed to fit comfortably on 85% of men out there.
