Style wise I tend to like Enzo Bonafe and their seemingly more modern stylistic shoe styles. In this case I prefer the Enzo in the shoe battle. Yet Oct 10th has some good shoes, but still no where close to the range of styles as Enzo Bonafe. I’m not biased to either, but still like stylistic shoes. That said last week I received my first custom ordered shoe from Oct 10th Sons of Henrey shoe. I never quite thought watching these vids that I too can own a pair. It was a Sweptback Single Monkstrap on Horween Sienna grain with 180 Deg Norwegian stitch. It looks similar from below as the wingtips in this vid. It’s a damn lovely shoe and it really look it and have yet to wear it. I think I wanna make a video of it before I wear it first. However, having looked at all the styles of Oct 10th they just don’t have as much depth in shoe models as Enzo Bonafe who has spectacular model shoes. My first shoe though was an Oct 10th mostly due to the stylist model of the Sweptback Single Monk on the last with the leather grain. It’s a casual dress shoe that looks spectacular with the Norwegian stitch.
I don’t disagree. I did tone it down a bit since but it’s still quite dark. I’ll build up a more natural patina over time or Can always strip it down and start over.
Nice shoes

Thanks for sharing. Great insight
I got a pair of burgundy hatch oct tenth. That blind stitch on the waist is just amazing
Thanks for sharing. It’s amazing work.
I prefer the Bonafe pair any day.
The oct10th are (imho) over burnished.

Oct looks much better especially the hill and the bottom
