Has anyone tried the brand HLS (Hogarth's Manifattura) that's available on Yoox? Comments on quality? They often go quite deep on discount, and i like in particular their wingtiped ankle boots for a casual look....

And jumping on the bandwagon, any comments on Paul May shoes?

Thanks,

Dan

Paul May is a midrange italian shoe brand, often very fashion forward models and lots of faux exotic skins (embossed patterns etc). See their range at www.paulmay.it. The styles Yoox carries seem to be their most conservative models =) The braided/woven leather boots on Yoox looks nice though, bottega veneta without the pricetag....

I've seen their shoes every now in italian stores and they look quite OK, cant really comment on their quality though

Update: I ordered a pair of HLS boots from Yoox, they are pretty decent, especially when on sale. The pair i got were a brown leather boot with a bit of wingtip decorating, it's in kangaroo leather which was very nice. The antiquing was very nice. I think they might be glued though, they're leather soled but factory has added a thin thin rubber sole on top. And the inside is covered so i cant see any stitching on the inside

But for euro 70 after discount i cant complain, they feel and look good and the leather was great
