Hello!

First time looking to buy a pair of Yanko and I'm very excited! These look too gorgeous.
View attachment 1008637

My apologies for a probably repeated sizing question tho. These balmorals are in the 915 last and I wear:
Loake Capital 7UK
Meermin RUI 7UK
Meermin double monk Hiro 7.5UK - this needed a tongue padding due to heel slip

Thank you!
Beautiful shoe!!

Thanks for the link, good info..

I really love 915 last (I have Simpson too). What it is your opinion about Yanko insoles/outsoles?. Do you know their suppliers?.

I think that my list it is quite objective. Notwithstanding the clasiffication I made, there are not much quality increase among them (same construction, supliers and more or less same materials, crasftmanship and QC).

Fit is first, so I can say 915 last is really good for my feet and I love the shape of the last.

At those prices, GYW shoes in Spain are really good value, specially if you compare them with RTW GYW english shoes in the same level of quality/crasftmanship.

Just my two cents.

Hi Zapasman,

Do you take same size in 915 as in Simpson?

For what its worth, patine.pl is offering 25% off regular priced items. Pretty awesome deal, particularly when you exclude VAT!

Oh oops, Ive just ordered size 7 as I wear 7 in my Simpsons and New Rey. Hopefully it will work for me. Thanks!

915 is very roomy, Simpsom and new Rey are very narrow. I also wear 915 half a size smaller.

FIRSTSTEP

Details are here - apparently there are a limited number of uses:

https://blog.patine.pl/first-step/

I picked up a pair of Yanko dark brown wingtips and a pair of black balmoral boots.

Happy shopping!

Edit: it doesn’t seem to work with all styles though, not sure which it does and which it doesn’t. Any clarification @patinePL ?



@jamie411 This is a fast promotion to celebrate one, special day. Promotion is nearly running out. If you can not use code on each model, there can be some of the reasons :

1. It is an outlet pair (last pairs; pairs with minor defects; pair after fittings)
2. Model is covered by another promotion.
3. Model which cannot be cover by this promotion.

If you have any additional questions please contact with our support via e-mail. We will be glad to help you.

All the 'Testa De Moro' finishes are patina'd on crust leather bases correct? Which finishes are coloured while being tanned, and which are done after the fact (patina)?

Received the Yanko brogues in 6.5UK which is a tad too short compared to Simpson in 7UK (best fitting last so far). As others have mentioned, leather is a bit thinner compared to different brands, but finishing is superb. Really noticeable arch support - not sure if I like it.

hi guys, is there a reason why patine.pl's yanko offering seems to be much higher than skolyx? For a suede loafer, the former seems to be almost twice the price of the latter's at regular price.
