Schuh Bertl
Haferlsandale
US Men's Brannock: 9D/E
Haferl Last: 42
Plenty room at the toes. Feels snug at the ball but leather is supple enough that it's supportive and not uncomfortable. Instep is somewhat low but the buckling can alleviate that.

Seemt about the most overbuilt summer hiker I could find.
Exchanged with Bertl based on Meindl hikers sizes. Went 1/2 down from hiker/sneaker size. Shoulda probably gone a whole 1 1/2 down. Wearing them with a thin insole seems fine.
Easy, responsive, efficient. Got lucky that my size was in store. Otherwise count 8-12 weeks.
