Hello All! I just bought my first pair of Alden’s. They were black tassel moccasins in 10.5EEE. In Allen Edmonds fifth avenue’s I’m a 10.5EEE. In tecovas and Lucchese I’m an 11EE as the 10.5 is a bit too snug. I also recently got some morjas Penny and Tassel Loafers in a UK 9.5 because they were supposed to be wider despite not offering width options. The morjas fit well length wise but are a bit snug and uncomfortable width wise after a long day.

The Aldens feel great but there is a noticeable amount of heel lift and I can almost put a finger between my heel and the heel of the shoe? I’ve reached out to Alden about maybe exchanging for a 10EEE but wanted to see if anybody here had a different perspective.
