Oldspeed MFG
Service Boot 6”
US Men's Brannock: L 12.5C HTB/13 HTT, R 13C
1942 Last: 12.5D
1942 last is really nice. Locked in heel and waist. Ball opens up with nice lateral space then comes back to an almond toe. Reminds be a bit of the Viberg 2020 last. Arch alignment is good. My right foot is borderline 13 HTB, so maybe not as perfect as left foot is. I may consider a 13 if I get another pair in this last. But 100% happy with the fit.

I chose these specifically for the 2025/2026 Dome. I had been wanting to try an Oldspeed and this GTMO popped up, so I jumped in.
After putting in this order, I got a pair of RTW Oldpeed in the older last, size 12.5D. Those were too narrow. I reached out to Dave to let him know that the 12.5D doesn’t work for me and he suggested that we could try the new 1942 last, which he felt would work for my measurements. But, he was also open to making adjustments on the other last. I chose the new last and it was a home run!
Pretty simple online store. No issues ordering at all.
