Jeff,
The Barrie last is Alden’s largest fitting last. Most people size down 1/2 size. If you have a narrow foot, our D widths may be too large for you. As always, I recommend everyone get professionally fitted in person before ordering any of our shoes.
Aloha,
Tom

HI Tom,
These shoes are just a lovely balance of comfort and sophistication.
If only I could get them to Ireland!

I like both of these, and I usually don’t go for split toes. Are higher resolution pictures available?
