Love your videos and the offerings from The Hanger Project. I don't currently own any of these, but I think my preference for the price point would be the Carmina. AEs may be easier to get fitted for and actually purchase, though. I'm actually on the hunt for a pair of black cap toe oxfords right now so this is a great reference for what is available at which price points.
