3 Great Shoe Brands to Discover

[@eyeheartsushi2212]

Beautiful shoes, Hugo! I also appreciate that you wore them on the video, which is something I wish most KZbinrs do more often. Thank you.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

I agree, we'll do this more often then! Hugo

[@AnonNotAnonymous]

I purchased the CNES BQ1 Balmoral in black about a month and it’s such a nice shoe. Love it.

[@roskes]

Fantastic video as usual! I met Toni Llobera in person in the London Trunk Show in 2018. Very nice guy and shortly after I bought a double monk in burgundy. I loved the extra quality you get for a lower price than other prime brands. I've been wanting to buy the Artista style since it was launched, looks like the real deal.

[@MLukacs]

Dear Hugo, I apologize for the late comment. Thank you once again for such a great installment of Sartorial Talks! Also, thank you for informing us of these artists in the world of men’s shoes. I knew of Septième Largeur, but not of the other two. I trust that when a brand receives your endorsement, it is a brand I should get to know. I hope you and Sonya are well!

[@roskes]

You mentioned Justin and Kirby, it's great to see how you all know and respect each other 🙌🙌🙌

One other great thing about TLB is that one can do some customization as well. For example, the soles can be upgraded to JR soles, patterns, and lining choices, etc. Great suggestions Hugo!

As I recently wrote on LinkedIn, there are too many people that lack the substance and integrity in what they do because they do not know their art or their business and are simply trying their luck. That has never been the case with Monsieur Hugo which is why it is always enjoyable to watch, listen and learn. I wish you and Sonia continued success.

[@thatxonexguy5438]

First of all, let me start by saying what a nice coat you have on Mr. Hugo! What im wanting to know is what shoes brands you personally wear if any "off the rack" shoe brands. I would presume your shoewear collection is predominantly bespoke though. Along with this, do you shine your own shoes? Loved the vid and will definitely be checking out these brands you mentioned!

[@brookeggleston9314]

Something interesting was pointed out in the comments section of a Trenton and Heath shoe care video I was watching. One gentleman pointed out that when you buy a cheap cotton t-shirt, or a pair of blue jeans, there is a tag inside was care instructions. However, if you pay $300 - $1,000 for a pair of beautiful shoes or boots, rarely will you find so much as a slip of paper in the box, telling you how to care for your fine leather goods! This must change! You and Sonya have the ears of many in the business. Perhaps a word to a few of them could make a difference! ✨ Stay safe and healthy, and please pray for the USA! Blessings . . . ⚡🔥🌊✨💙✨🌊🔥⚡

[@errorlogging459]

Thanks Hugo, appreciate!

[@rorycarter8797]

Great video Hugo! I recently purchased a pair of suede loafers from TLB Mallorca (from the ARTISTA line) and was quite impressed. Strange question I have been pondering.. Would you rather have a French tailor (ex Cifonelli) cut a Neapolitan spalla camicia shoulder on an otherwise french jacket OR a Neapolitan tailor (ex Ciardi) cut a cran parisien on a Neapolitan jacket? Isolation has caused me to contemplate such crazy ideas like this :)

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Dear Rory, I agree with you concerning TLB, exceptional quality and value. Concerning your question, although I know Cifonelli can craft any kind of shoulders, it would be highly counter-intuitive for their team to attach a sloppy shoulder on a Cifonelli garment. Same for the Ciardis who rarely use padding... The shoulder is the most critical part though. A notch is easy to perform in comparison. Cheers, Hugo

[@dd-dd2co]

I love Sartorial Talks and I am a dress shoe addict. Do you have any reference about Fratelli Rossetti from Italy? And what about Ferragamo shoes? Worth the high price? You should take a close look on Brazilian shoemakers, they couldn't be at the same bar as many from Europe, but shoes are made from high quality leather and prices below €100, a real bargain. Congratulations for your superb work. Regards from Brazil.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Hello Carlos. Fratelli Rossetti and Ferragamo are both way overpriced in my opinion. They are produced by makers and ateliers we are often featuring (under their own names and at a much more affordable price). That's the magic of the Sartorial community: once you start to learn about this subject, you can avoid marketing brain washing. All my best, Hugo

[@abcxyz7529]

I've bought a few pairs from CNES now, and while you get a lot of value for the money (solely based on the features, not so much the make), somehow they are incredibly difficult to break in. I've sent them for stretching service, used the hair dryer myself, wear it on and off for months now. They are still as painful to wear as the first day. On the other hand my TLB oxfords are almost as comfortable as my Crocs now after just 2 months of wear.

[@Aragorn1964]

Does anyone know if there are import fees or extra vat charged on TLB if you are having them delivered to the UK?

[@Mercurio2012]

Thank you for your reviews. Unfortunately, the VAT price reduction in origin doesn't mean that it would be cheap on arrival as I would have to pay not only my country's VAT, but an additional import tariff that adds a whopping 54% to the original fare, which includes delivery.

[@yueminwang3551]

I've been eyeing the Septieme Largeur patina shoes for a while just could not decide on it. All my shoes are from british makers which are quite sturdy and I don't feel bad wearing them since none have crazy patina or pretty soles.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Carlos Santos and Carmina are excellent shoemakers, but IMO I think TLB is a slight notch above in terms of quality and precision of the construction and the finishing. By the way they main line is less expansive the Carmina (365 euros). Anyway, after that it's a question of taste, of design etc. Cheers, Hugo

[@porfirioroumpiroza]

SARTORIAL TALKS Thank you.I havent realize that TLB are better.On the other hand TLB havent the big collection of carmina or the patina of carlos santos so its a matter of taste as you said. As for value for money shoes Justin Fitzpatrick have sales in second line ( JP ) and sells shoes for 173 euros and slightly more for boots ! Maybe not the same quality as first line but still very good and the price is very low.He said me that for pre sales items european customers havent to pay extra import taxes becouse they came directly from spain ! i hope that you will come to Greece as you planed.Coronavirus is not affect us as other countries so it can be a safe trip.

@@SARTORIALTALKS Great response. I should have asked my question better, i meant to ask what you wear on a day where you are not in front of a camera/out in public but yes that answers my question. Stay safe

Blue PP Oxford shirt, striped tie and wide lapel double breasted suit. British-American versus French continental style--interesting!

When you are not filming and in quarantine what do you wear around the house?

This is classified information my friend :-) Hugo

TLB are phenomenal quality for the price. I have a pair that are easily 2-3 steps above my Allen Edmonds in quality for about the same price and also a step above my Cobbler Union for finishing quality (and lower price). I was hopeful for a step up in quality when I purchased a pair of CU, but was disappointed as my TLB are better and less expensive.

Dear Matthew, TLB is fantastic for sure. Hugo
