    I am working on a pair of Corcoran brown & bone jump boots.

    I got these N.O.S. linen/leather Carlo Morandi buckle strap specs on eBay a couple of months ago. Alas, while they were described as 11 D, they turned out to be too narrow - I'm guessing they're a B width. I've been meaning to relist them, but I've been waiting til I have a few more vintage items to do a group of stuff.

    They are a great monk. The design - style - etc. These look ldefinitely like a D fitting and most Italian shoes have a wide fitting. Narrow is pretty unheard of in standard Italian fitting. Are they slightly more than 4 inches wide at the broadest point? You should get them stretched IMO.

    They're barely 4" measured across the widest part of the sole - and definitely too tight when I put them on.

    I thought about having them stretched but wondered if the fabric could take it. Any thoughts?
