Quick pic. Absolutely lovely! Comfortable fit and it came nicely polished. Well done for the great offering Kevin.

A little on the fit:
Width: A little on the wide side. I’m not complaining though — I have wide feet
Sizing: Slightly larger than Meermin/Sons of Henry/Carlos Santos in the same size. I feel like half size down might be too tight but it’s roomy in the current size.
Instep: I have a high instep so I usually have trouble getting my oxfords to lace without a huge gap. This pair of derbies are very accommodating for high insteps.

Nice split toes. How's the arch support?

Nice! Glad you like them.

Fit is always hard to get 100% for everyone. But my experience with this last, both on my own feet and through the feedback from our customers in store is rather good.

But all feedback is useful for us to be able to improve our line of shoes.

So if anyone else has any feedback, please post it here. I would love to read your opinions on our products in general.

+1 for a touch more length in the jackets! But other than that, great fit out of the box (Also a typical 50 / 40R Contemporary guy). I didn't notice anything about wider shoulders than I'm used to.

Looking forward to our Edward Green trunkshow this week.

What are your favorite models from EG, and what would you like to see in our selection in the future?

Can’t go wrong with the Westminster. Have you thought about putting together GMTOs on exclusive models?

Was the shirting pattern changed this year?

I bought a shirt last year that fit quite well and bought the same size in the denim shirt this year and I’m swimming in it.

I noticed that as well but I bet the denim was cut large to accommodate shrinkage after washing. I recently put mine in the dryer to see how the sizing came out. I’ll check back and let you know if that brought it in line with my other shirt size.

 

[kevinsvindland]

No changes to the pattern. But anticipated shrinkage is accounted for by the factory on fabrics that tend to shrink, like denim or other heavier cottons.

Whoa! That jacket looks amazing. You should be the model for Cavour, lol ..

Having trouble reaching customer service via email. Sent a couple emails to return @cavour.co with no response...

 

[hrv123]

I’ve never once gotten a reply to any emails sent to customer service. I guess not much of their sales are online as they don’t seem to reply to emails. Some of my inquiries are size/measurements related and have prevented me from purchasing items because of a lack of response. Shame because there are many good products that I am interested in, but without receiving a reply on specific questions , not willing to take the chance.
