@kevinsvindland Details on the Cavour cap toe Oxfords? Leather source, construction ( hand welting, sole construction etc). What category/ competitors did you have in mind when constructing these.

Also, can't see the images on the website unfortunately.

Hi @kevinsvindland ,

I understand you won't be using your current website anymore, but I see you have added the new Cavour line of shoes. Do you plan a presentation here?

Hi Guys,

We plan to update the site with shoes only, till the new site goes live in May.
Hope to be able to get pictures up some time this week.

The shoes are made in Spain.
Leathers sourced mostly from Weinheimer and Du Puy.
All shoes are goodyear welted.
They feature channeled stitching and a beveled waist. (apart from the ones with rubber soles)

More pictures to come, but if anyone has any further questions, just shoot.

What material is the heel stiffener made of, leather board or celastic?

Hi,

We’ve used leather board for the heels and toe.

@kevinsvindland Hi Kevin, I am interested in the brown cap toe oxford's, What would your recommendations be in terms of sizing? I am 6.5 UK in the CS jumper boots, 7.5 UK in Carmina rain oxfords and Meermin Hiro Last.

Also, are shoe trees available to purchase?

Hi Ricky,

Our Soft Chisel last is similar to Carmina Rain, so I would advise to go with the same size.

Currently the shoetrees are not available online, but will be once our new site goes live in mid-late May.

Have the polo suede loafers (teaser photo) been released yet? If so where can one purchase?

Some of them are posted on Instagram, and I think there was a post here... But definitely waiting for a more detailed overview or each shoe model!

 

[kevinsvindland]

Until our new site is up and running, the current one will be a little limited. But for now some are available online here.
The new site will have much more info, and more and better pictures.

We will include free shoetrees with all shoes for a limited time.

And I'll try my best to answer all questions that you might have.

Its bugging me, just gonna come out and say it, at first glance these have an uncanny resemblance to Lof & Tung shoes....T last and S Last, so I do question having this offering, feels this price segment is becoming more and more crowded everyday.
I do like the minimal clean sole finish, and looks like a quality shoe nonetheless, but feels more could be done to differential from other competitors in this price segment.

And Lof Tung shoes have an uncanny resemblance to styles that were already in the market. In other words, these are classic styles (loafers, tassels, etc).

What point are you trying to make?
