The fit, explained

The roomy toe box suits fuller or higher-volume forefeet. The leather relaxes with wear, so early snugness eases over time.

A classic reference point — best for average to wider or higher-volume feet that want a moderate, heritage feel.

Break-in: Genuine leather — expect a short break-in as the upper relaxes and molds to the shape of your foot over a few sessions.
