    There are two things about Koio's Trento that are really underrated and underappreciated in the world of boots: they're made with a Blake stitch and leather soles. A lot of guys turn up their noses at those elements but I'm a huge fan: they make a boot more comfortable, lightweight, and flexible, and yes, you can still resole them. It was ballsy of Koio to release a Chelsea that goes so against the mold, but I think it was well worth the risk!

    Thanks for the video, I hope you keep making videos about Chelseas, by far my favorite style!

    Chelsea’s are a casual shoe/boot. But as a New Yorker no issue wearing a Chelsea with dark selvedge jeans, dress shirt, tie and jacket.

    I'm from Murica and I think Chelseas can be worn with a suit, as long as they're the right style, like these Trentos.

    I see your evolution. You began with an interest in and focus on materials and craftsmanship. Some very interesting international stuff, growing into an economic analysis of the footwear industry. Sprinkles of fashion, which I admit I didn't always care much about, I'm in Colorado. But at the end, you rejected PNW as a lifestyle choice (I have too, just too heavy, though I admire their values and execution). And now you're fixing on what actually works for your environment and use.(And hey, you're in the suburbs now? Not the urban landscape of old?) You have a deepened understanding of what makes a boot work. I love that you made a boot, too. That's the journey, and it should begin with our feet, our /understanding/. I've learned a lot from you, man. Thanks.

      James, this comment really made my night, wow. It's so interesting that a stranger can do such a good psychoanalysis of my fashion journey. I'm actually still in New York but was staying in New Jersey for a bit with these other shots. Sometimes I think about doing a video called 'my fashion philosophy' but it feels a bit self indulgent even for me, but you've got me thinking about it again! I try to be relatively open about being a city guy who likes durable materials, classic looks, and modern fits, so I try not to dwell too much on the "work appropriate" angle and more on the "this will last a long time and look cool" angle, which might sound superficial to working men but hey, I'm me.

    Do you have any opinions on the Our Legacy Camion boots? They're blowing up in various minimal fashion circles nowadays, but I'm curious if they stand up to the hype in terms of leather and build quality.

    Never pulled the trigger I have dress boots but Chelsea looks off to me too dressy for jeans and not dressy enough for suit or dressier occasions IMO

    They definitely work a casual suit w/ soft shoulders, sans tie or odd jacket and trousers with or w/o tie (depending on the tie perhaps a textured solid tie, nothing eye catching). Definitely not with a structured suit.

      Especially when they don't offer half sizes. Sure you can exchange for a different size but I don't want to commit this much money to something with the risk that I won't ever get a true fit as someone who usually is a half size.

    • @Stridewise

      @az6624 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      If you look up the exact Chelsea boot referenced in the video and under the product page this item specifically has a no-return policy unfortunately. Perhaps that’s justifiable if they carried half sizes Even a custom pair of crown Northampton’s I ordered all the way from England which took 3 months to make allow for returns

    The whole "can we wear chelsea boots with a suit" is silly. Isn't it?
    I will be wearing my Chelsea boots with my new made to measure Daniel George suit to my daughter's wedding in July. No one will care. I guarantee that I, the father of the bride, will be the best dressed person in the room (except the bride) and no one will care but me.
    I'm good with that, always.
    I wish that I could try on the Trento's. I have totally blown through my budget with 2 new Chelsea boot pairs being made for me. The wait is killing me and I am worried about sizing.

    RM. Williams will always be my favorite.
    But for the price these ones were quite beautiful. I'd still say the Cavalier is the one Chelsea boot where you get the most bang for your buck.
    These are good, but not better than RM. Williams and also not better than Thursdays compared to the price in my opinion

    I’m personally a Koio fan, but this whole videos reads pretty transparently as an ad and I can’t help but wish you disclosed the full extent of your arrangement with them. Your channel tends to be pretty straight forward, but this one feels sus. Pretty clearly scripted, pretty clearly hitting all of their talking points, and pretty clearly lacking objectivity.
