Have you guys tried twisting the shoe tree sideways while pulling it out? One of Mark Cho's video gave that advice and i found it pretty helpful. Same with putting on chelseas/jodphurs too, instead going straight in, going in at an angle makes it much easier.
Yeah, I literally cannot get a grip on it to even do that well?

Would anyone consider the Parisian suede the same color as polo suede?

Some shots of Enzo Bonafè blind penny loafer in Inca grain. I was pleasantly surprised by the grain.

I really like the aesthetic of the protruding welt on the loafer, it gives the loafer more of an impression. Inca grain up close, very nice pattern. I was actually thinking of doing a loafer MTO in elbamat via Carmina, so when I saw these I decided to go the Enzo route. Also props to Skoak for always having great/accurate pictures of their footwear! It’s not east hahah

Got some new sneaker options for you guys! Have a great summer! :) The Tärnjsö option looks a lot better IRL than in the product page to be honest. I'll have to look into that ASAP.

Nice! I immediately pulled the trigger on the tarnsjo. All of these look great, was tempted to get 2 or 3 pairs.

I think that this pictures proves that gum soles are so, so much better looking than white ones.

I just received my oak Tärnjsö sneakers from the GMTO. Those brown laces look way better than the white ones mine came with.

If there would be a restock of the Tärnsjö leathers, I'd be very interested.

Sorry I'm not sure I understand. Was your Tärnsjö Sneaker GMTO delivered with white laces? They should have brown of course. Please reach out to [email protected] if that was not the case.

Yes, came with white laces, I've already ordered some brown ones off of Amazon, don't worry about it.

Yesterday I recieved my first pair of Löf & Tung Bellot in dark brown museum calf. The unpacking was great and the shoes are wonderfully executed, the leather in not very mottled which I prefer in museum calf.

Sizing is on spot 10.5UK (thanks to Erik's advise), the model is great, the austerity brogue has become my favourite formal shoe. I was afraid that the shoe's mouth would be a tad small (not unusual in spanish shoes) but is ok, and no issues in the proportions.

When I opened the box I thought "bahhhh white shoe bags"; Vass, Barker and AE use this color which is a no sense for me, since that bags are made to contain shoes not jewels. But the I realize that the bag have a dark brown linning, a nice detail.

This was a trial purchase, I will return*.

*Edit : To avoid any misunderstanding I should have said: " I wil return to Skoaktiebolaget for more shoes".
