      Good boid you nailed it. Now that I know this precious knowledge, I intend to pass it on to my sons. Sadly, I may pretend that I knew this all along. Hugo and Sonya, thank you for putting this up. FYI: shoe shining very important to pass on to your sons.

    Hugo and Sonya, love your enthusiasm. I'm outfitting my first suit and I got bit by the sartorial bug! As a "young" (30yo) scientist, dress and fashion has never been my strong suit; I've worn cheap sneakers and t-shirts all my life. Can't describe how confident and unexpectedly sharp I looked yesterday at the initial measuring. Never knew I could look this good!!! Love the content and keep it up!

    I'm very happy to say that teens (boys and girls) at Jenks High School, in Jenks, OK , have brought the Oxford shoe out of the 1900s. They are wearing Oxfords with boot cut jeans, and all manner of casual clothes, even shorts.
    I love their look. It makes guys and girls, alike, look so stylish but fun.
    I personally love Oxfords and own a few pair. It is fun to see people wear them on a daily basis. Good thing you are here to advise!

    Dear Hugo, thanks for your videos and for sharing your fascinating knowledge with us. Could you sometime cover the issue of making/wearing a bespoke suit for/by a man using a wheelchair? In general, how to adapt the suit to any type of body. I have NEVER seen this topic discussed. Thanks again.

    • @SARTORIALTALKS
      @SARTORIALTALKS  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Dear Antonio, what an interesting question indeed ! I personally know a man (Adriano Cifonelli, the father of Lorenzo) who is paraplegic and who is extremely elegant. The jacket is not a problem. The most difficult part are the trousers (and more precisely how to measure them and with which material to make them considering that the back will rarely see the light). I promise I'm going to dig this question. Cheers, Hugo

  • @WL-ld6dz
    @WL-ld6dz 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I just want to discuss what you define as an 'austerity brogue' at the start. Here in London people would simply define the first shoe as a 'plain cap toe oxford'. To be called a brogue, a shoe requires 'brogueing', that is to say holes. To achieve brogueing, it is necessary to do the holes/punches on an extra layer of leather (otherwise you have holes in your shoe), that is why it is often done on the cap toe: you have a first layer and a second added on which the holes are punched. This requires more leather to be used. To achieve this effect without using so much leather (as would be required in times of austerity) and obtain an - austerity brogue -, the punching, stitching and detailing is all done on the same layer, trying to recreate the look , but without the use of extra layers of leather and also calling the lining into play to match colour, so that the holes don't have different colour ! I hope you will consider this and perhaps obtain your thoughts.

    • @hugojacomet428
      @hugojacomet428 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dear William, thanks for your comment and your question. Actually I made a little mistake in the video as I show a plain cap toe oxford (as you rightly said) and not an Austerity Brogue. An "Austerity Brogue" is a shoe with nothing but a wingtip pattern on the upper. No perforations, pinking, or medallions. So it's true that It’s technically not a Brogue as there are no perforations. This is why, I suppose, the word "Austerity" is used also (which means "extreme plainness and simplicity of style or appearance"). Very strange indeed I agree, Cheers ! Hugo

    • @WL-ld6dz
      @WL-ld6dz 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dear Hugo, thanks for your kind reply and your points made. The word 'austerity' always reminds me of the 1920s depression and I've always thought perhaps that is when the design came about. All the best,

    But you didn't mention the main thing that makes an Oxford. The closed lacing. Should have compared it to a derby to clearly show the difference.

    Very interesting video, Hugo! I had to laugh when you mentioned feeling embarrassed while standing in front of a shoe store for hours on end which resulted in you changing your routine and to view shoes on a Sunday when the shop was closed. Then the internet took off which allows us to view and learn about fine shoes without feeling embarrassed, unless of course at times such as when my wife stumbles upon me whilst I’m learning from sources such as your fine productions of “Sartorial Talks”. Thanks for taking the time to share your extensive knowledge within this community. Keep up the great work! Ed
