Sizing Advice
The 462 is a New sleek last with a chiseled soft square toe and regular width. Fits true to size like the 387/389. Slightly elongated toe and advice is to size down 1 full size from your regular US size, or select your normal Carmina Rain/Meermin Hiro/Crockett & Jones 348.
Example: A UK 8 in Carmina Rain or US 9D in Allen Edmonds should select UK 8 in this model and last. For those that want a very fitted feel or have issues with loafers, size down extra half (UK 7.5 in the example above).
The Sole is an absolute work of art. Very rarely will you come across such high quality finish for this kind of price range. The sole is also hand painted with a unique Patina.
The Handgrade Collection is the holy grail of value and quality. It is phenomenal and I have witnessed the construction of a shoe from start to finish in the Carlos Santos Factory.
