Anyone knows whether Yeossal is still working with Oct tenth on their new shoes?
Hi,
I am glad to join this community.
I need some advice for my next acquisition. I am undecided between the Yeossal Thompson and the Oct. Tenth OT01. Despite both are produced by the same factory, I see some differences, like last shapes and leather options. I have read a lot of positive reviews on the Thompson but not so much on the OT01; which, on the other hand, has better leather options. Not sure if there are also differences in fitting.
Your knowledgeable advice is appreciated.

Thanks for the information. That explains the current difference in prices and apparent better quality pictures. But you are right, both produce outstanding shoes for the price point.I don't believe they are still produced in the same factory. I've heard Oct Tenth has "upped" their products. If I'm not mistaken Justin Fitzpatrick said they aren't far from Acme as far as quality of the product. I do have two pairs (down from 3) of shoes from Yeossal. I have no complaints and I think they are great shoes. Personally, if both shoe companies produce the same style you want and in a similar last I'd just go with what's the best bargain price-wise. I plan on ordering a pair of Norwegian loafers from Oct Tenth soon.
