Ohhh, this was wonderful to see this. I'm a HUGE fan of HUGO. So nice to see him visiting the other RUclips channels. I love both Potter and Sons, and Sartorial Talks. It's just great seeing them come together.
It's always good to see some of my favorite RUclipsrs collaborating. Feels like coming to a family meetup. One remark on Justin Fitzpatrick's shoes: I especially applaud Justin for his transparency in terms of clarifying what you get from, say, his JF line, but more importantly he tells you exactly what you DON'T get. No marketing fluff, no BS, just straight up: "If X or Y matters to you, you'll have to upgrade to my main line." The only negative thing about the JF line is merely subjective, and that's the fact that the elongated almond shape of most of his lasts isn't as elegant as I'd like it to be. But other than that: Great shoes!
When Hugo and Sonya are involved, the conversation cannot be long enough! It's impossible to get bored, when knowledgeable people are discussing a topic we find interesting! I'm so glad you got together. Please do it again! Perhaps Trenton and Heath can make a little trip to France??🍾✨
Herring shoes are made by many companies such as Carlos Santos, Barkers, Loake, Cheaney, NPS Solovair etc. Often they are very similar to the manufacturer's own shoes but with a few small changes. A bit like a supermarket that produces its own branded version of products.
Three of my favorite people on youtube. So happy! Hugo brings a wealth of knowledge and Trenton and Heath's expert insight is so incredibly valuable. LOVED this video and part 1. Walked away extremely excited.
For an American, with the exception of Allen Edmonds, NONE of these suggested brands are available in any brick and mortar store to actually see, touch, and try on. While that's not your fault, most people aren't comfortable blindly buying $300+ shoes they can't try on first.
Hugo is a legend and a joy to listen to. This was a completely enjoyable collab - thank you! The video may be longer than most, but when you have great people engaged in interesting conversation, it does not feel long at all. Really loved it. Take care.
A fantastic collaboration! Hugo, as always, is the perfect combination of knowledgeable and delightful, and Trenton and Heath bring their expertise, charm and hands-on experience. All of this combines to form a rich, entertaining masterclass in entry-to-midlevel men's footwear. And not to mention, three of the finest heads of hair anywhere on the RUclipss!
Justin Fitzpatrick is just a wonderful, amazing down to earth guy. I don’t know him personally, but he has taken the time to respond and give me advice online via RUclips and I really appreciated this helpful advice. I also appreciate his honesty and straightforward reviews on shoes. Can’t find a nicer guy and his success is just the offshoot from the clear passion he has for shoes and shoemakers. Terrific for him and very well deserved!!
I always love listening to Hugo speak. It may not always be about some specific shoe he speaks about, but you will learn a lot of show knowledge which helps tremendously to be knowledgeable about the shoes you choose to wear.
This is wonderful. RUclips was made for this, for bringing passionate people together and educating the public while breaking the grip big corporate has on consumers!
Hugo is a genuinely knowledgeable, thinking of his knowledge and understanding of the heritage of Cheaney, Tricker's and Church's. Lol, when Hugo did his southern accent :-) Sweet; and I loved Trenton and Heath's response ;-) All good fellas - keep it going. Bravo, more.... Tony
I’m glad you’ve included what countries each brand is made in. One BIG reason I support A-E is that many of their shoes are still made in the USA. There are a few countries that I simply cannot support any longer. We effectively vote with each purchase we make. Great information here in this video. Very enjoyable dialogue.
I really love these videos because theres only so many relevant google searches for boots I can get by searching online and it would be like impossible for me to hear about these without this video! Thanks!
Meermin has crazy quality control problems and awful customer support, which makes it a terrible brand to buy online. I received a pair of boots from them with a lumpy insole so I returned them, and it took them six weeks to process the exchange. When they finally sent me a replacement, they sent me the exact same lumpy pair that I returned. All in all I spent over three months dealing with them. About a year before that, I tried to get some Chelsea boots from them, and the lasting of the upper was super botched. They do use great materials for the money but not worth the risk at all.
This really resonates with me. I heard great things about Carmina and almost bought a shoe from them, but chose to go with TLB Mallorca because of superior customer service and the chance for a free size change.
I have been wearing Johnston & Murphy for years. The oldest pair I have are a timeless slip on brogue w/ kilties. Probably had them 35 years. BUT they have to well taken care of - I regularly condition the leather and shine as needed. Probably have had them resoled w/ heels at least half a dozen times.
Thank you for the introduction to Hugo! I really enjoyed the knowledge and his personality. I will have to check out his content now. I love it when enthusiasts I the community collaborate and cross-polinate for their followers. My shoe journey continues. Now I either need a raise or a second job to fund it!
1. Clearly I know nothing about dress shoes. 2. More education than I was ready for and I don’t think I’d ever heard of any of these brands. 3. Not sure I wanna pay these amounts but I’m a believer in quality over quantity 🤷🏻♀️ Thanks yall
Great video! Grateful that RUclips helps us unite around our interests. And when channels like both of yours do collabs, it’s just fantastic. Happy to say in the past 1.5-2 years I’ve added a few of these brands to my line up.
Great, great collab guys. Hugo is just an amazing guy, I could listen to him all day. Thanks for a fantastic video. So, Hugo tried his "southern" - now we want to hear your French!!
Such an informative and pleasant conversation, collaboration over a passion for quality workmanship. I have gone through a minimalist journey over the last few years, and what has survived 'the cut' each pass while decluttering are all my leather handmade or bespoke shoes and bags. Thank you so much for introducing me to a new channel to follow. Merci Mr Jacomet!
I have a pair of Meermin boots. I love them. But they did take a while to break in and my feet really hurt. But once they broke in they’ve been perfect. Like slippers.
I love gaslighting by claiming that the artisans are only in certain countries and not the fact that you're paying people less to make the shoe versus here in the US.
Dressing -Up! I does make a difference. It changes more than just how you look! Take the time as you only get one chance to make a first impression. People to see and respect your efforts!
Grenson, Herring and Loake get a lot of their shoes made in India rather than Northampton now. The Indian quality appears to be good though. I was surprised there was no mention of another Northampton brand, Barker Shoes.
Funny seeing Trenton and Heath at 26:42 talking about "there's a lot of choice out there for us, and not just what's down the street", yet both of them dressed in the most common boring brand - Polo RL.
An extremely interesting 2 part video, excellent information. All 3 men have such great personalities. I really appreciate the length of the video, the format allows for the inside scoop. I subbed! 😊
Another great and informative video! Hugo and Sonya are fantastic people and are a wealth of information. This series is a great go-to for those looking for quality shoes.
No mention of Grant Stone? They fit into this price range, generally. Kind of surprised they weren't mentioned, but I guess there are a lot of shoe makers out there and you can't catch all of them.
Yep grant stone would be my #1. They feel heartier than Allen Edmonds and the welt beats Alden by a long shot. I really like the chunky American style dress boot/shoe and nothing beats grant stone at 300-360 brand new. I am really surprised this brand was left out.
Wow, reading Justin FitzPatrick's bio is impressive. Looking at the names of his models, I recognized a lot of names from around Washington State. Sure enough, he's from Seattle, but with substantial time spent in Italy, England (Savile Row), and Spain to learn the craft and launch his brand. How cool.
Had to laugh at the Trickers joke about kicking butt in the Scottish Highlands but immediately thought of Elmer J. Fudd wearing Trickers boots chasing Bugs Bunny ! I guess you just can't get Bugs out of your mind if you grew up in America no matter what your age LOL.
@@brookeggleston9314 , don't know why I called Preston (The Elegant Oxford) Soto "Justin"... Hope he forgives me if he sees this... Preston is top notch!
I would have love to see and hear you guy continue to take and share your experiences over a glass wine. I can imagine all of you not just talking about the brand but the various last and fine leather used to make a shoe. I know I had a pair of florsheim when I was a kid that didn't wrinkle and I didn't use she trees. I wish I had take the time back then to figure out what was it that get it from wrinkling but I didn't realize how unusual it was till out grow then and my ferragamo started to wrinkle
merci beaucoup monsieur jacomet! it was a pleasure to listen to you guys! I live in Berlin, Germany and its quite sad here, as it seems that even people who likes to wear nice clothes are no really interessted in nice und good quality shoes and berlin is used to be a fashion city. even if you go to a store, the men shoes department is always so small...
Thank you for this great and inspiring show. Do you know the Berlin shoe brand "Shoepassion"? If so, would you be so kind as to provide an assessment of the quality? Best regards from Germany and thank you for your work
Speaking from the city of Kielman shoes, things are not as bad as the media is portraying, life goes on and people continue to go about their business. Great broad spectrum of brands picked out by you guys, definitely something for everyone in there. Tempted to pull out my copy of Hugos' Souliers for another browse but I know it will end bad for my credit card!
Hello, fellas! I have a few pairs from Meermin (Goodyear welted). My opinion - Spanish Meermin is very good, but Chineese Meermin is worstest choice.....brrrrrrrrrrrr
Have you ever worked on Zegna loafers? They are usually priced way above 500$ but was wondering about their build quality and if it is worth it. Thanks!
I heard for the first time shoe brands the I’ve never knew and that was Hugo speaking about them, he knows about the shoes but these are videos for grown ups and I just hope the audience is big cause when I go out is just sad to see men and women don’t dress good anymore, men with athletic shoes just because they are expensive doesn’t mean they are good!!!!! But Cobbler Union I highly recommend them, Mermin as well, I’m dying to get me a pair of J Fitzpatrick and I will soon!!! Carlos Santos are a dream of mine!! They didn’t mentioned it but one of my favorites is Salvatore ferragamo but I would like to hear their opinion!!!!
I know its hard to include every brand but idk how Grant Stone didn't get a mention. They may not have a huge selection of dress shoes so that's probably why it didn't get a mention. I have two pairs of their boots and they are remarkable quality.
Love the video and collaboration. I own a pair or Grenson brogues but looking for a new pair of oxfords. Your video broadened my search and I’m definitely interested in the value Meermin and CNES offer, both which are new to me👌🏻👍🏻👏🏻✌🏻
Great Video! Thank-you for doing this. As a kid I worked for E.T. Wright "the Arch Preserver" shoe company as an apprenticed shoe cutter. Unfortunately, it was at the end of this companies existence. Cheap imports put them out of business.
Hey guys! I think they may be above the price point you were talking about in this video but what do y’all think about Paul Evans out of New York? Is it good quality, overpriced, bad, etc.? I am just asking because he graduated from my alma mater, Tulane University, and I wanted to support a fellow Tulanian but the quality has to be there and they ah e to be made right or I will not buy it.
I always was a AE man, but started to buy a few Loakes, meermin, myhrqvist, morjas, C&J….just made me realize how much I love my favorite AE McAllister pair.
Thursday Boots (shoe line) didn’t make the list. They’re pretty close to the 200 range. A little lower even on some of the shoes. How do they compare? Are they a good shoe? Seems like the boots are a pretty solid value in some earlier videos.
Hearty thanks and much appreciated to you gentlemen for providing a true wealth of knowledge on quality made shoes in an affordable price range your interview with Mr. Jacomet was informative educational enlightening and enjoyable again thanks so much look forward to upcoming RUclips videos🤓
Hugo is operating at a completely different speed than the two southerners. I love all these guys but Hugo's energy is so effervescent and the brothers prefer to take their time and think about stuff twice before they talk.
I've seen sites like Hockerty where you can customize shoes to order, are they quality and are there other recommended companies like that? Also more places that deal in triple monk chisel toe wingtip brogue boots, those seem hard to find

The only negative thing about the JF line is merely subjective, and that's the fact that the elongated almond shape of most of his lasts isn't as elegant as I'd like it to be. But other than that: Great shoes!

"I was buying my shoes second hand, or second foot." I legit loled. Hugo's got jokes.
Hahahaa.. right on!

Well done Gentlemen and Sonia. It was a wonderful collaboration. Thank you!
I recently purchased a pair of waxed suede second hand Trickers for £100. Very high quality and classic casual style.
My two favorite brands for the $300 - $500 range are To Boot New York & Magnanni.

Any tips for figuring out what style lasts are best for your foot?
This is pure gold. Thank you so much.
Cole Haan and JM made me cry... Is it better for me to just replace a worn-out CH penny with a different brand than to have you resole it?
Probably so, depending on how well made the shoes are. Leather welt, etc.

Stellar; my favourites in one video!
Are Pierre Cardin shoes generally good ... or are they just a fashionable name like Calvin Klein?
Hi. Thank you for the nice video very informative. Would you have experience with Barker shoes (England), Morjas (Spain) and Shoepassion (Germany)
Its almost imposible to find the full list.
Would It be possible to make a real good quality for under 200$
Love you’re videos! I’m surprised Becket Siminon did not make this list…is there a reason?
Hi guys 😃
Do you have experience with French Paraboot?
the timestamp said "mermaid", i chuckled a bit, hehe
I've seen sites like Hockerty where you can customize shoes to order, are they quality and are there other recommended companies like that?
Also more places that deal in triple monk chisel toe wingtip brogue boots, those seem hard to find
