Sizing Advice
The 362 is an elegant loafer last with a medium round toe and wide width. Fits roomier since it is a loafer. Slightly elongated toe and advice is to size down 1.5 size from your regular US size, or half a size down from 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 7.5 in this model and last. Only select UK 8 if your feet are wider than usual, or you have foot issues.
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.
