Here we take a look at the most recent shoes that Yearn shoemaker has sent me. A super cool derby that I saw during my last trip to London that I was super impressed with.
When watching the video and contrasting it against my first video, you will see that there are a lot of improvements on the shoe they sent me which is what prompted this new unboxing. That is not to say that the first shoe was not great. It was amazing. But the fit was tricky. The fit has vastly improved here.
The detailing has gone up while the pricing is still super low compared to the quality. It is impressive to say the least. And Yearn continues to offer one of the best values on the market and they keep pushing themselves to get better and better.
I am always excited to see what they come up with next!
This is an MTO model so you must contact Yearn directly to acquire this pair.

You’re the man! Thanks for keeping us educated consumers / shoe addicts
My pleasure Evan!
I truly enjoy the Chinese brands. I have pairs from BW and Yeossal. I do want these from Yearn.
Thanks for sharing!
Good to see you on here again. SAPICA is now the place to be.
Thank you for your input on business.

I agree: a two-eyelet derby like this is super elegant and could have the formality of a classic cap toe oxford - but, dare i say it, more interesting...
Cheers

Thanks as always for sharing!
Beautiful shoe. Yearn is really doing some impressive work. I really like that rounded last too. Definitely not a boring classic round...its still quite sleek and modern.
Dont know how I missed this comment! Thanks for sharing MB
I placed my MTO when I saw Yearn showcasing that model at London on Instagram. I was also planning to get a loafer on the y01 last but Tim from Yearn advised me to wait to place my loafer MTO because he said it may look odd on a loafer. I'm glad I listened to Tim's suggestion because the y01 last would have looked odd on a loafer given how elongated the y01 last is.
Yea it is definitely not for loafers
As of now (10/17/2023), Yearn still doesn't have this model up on their website. If you have some free time, giving them a note would be a great service! It is quite a stunning model and in particular, the line on the edge of the ball part really caught my eyes. Maybe it's the lighting, but that line gives this pair certain sharpness that makes it different from the Arca. Is the he instep area different as well? This pair seems to have a sharper incline that allows for higher instep than the Arca. Another cool pair of shoes, Justin. Nice work and thank you!
Sorry I keep finding comments I have missed. I have heen reminding them 🤦♂️ will see the owner again in May and will remind further. It is an MTO model and they dont really show them. Will discuss with them
@@theshoesnob_official no problem my man. This is quite an unique model and re-watching this video made me fall in love with it again. Thanks for the help, and any updates would be greatly apprecaited.
@@xwhEdward you could also email the owner directly for order. Just tell him I sent you. His name is Tim ;-) info@yearnshoemaker.com
@@theshoesnob_official True! Thanks for the email and your timely response!
@@xwhEdward my pleasure ;-)
I bought this in full black for a wedding. amazing shoes. my question is: Yearn or Oct tenth?
I dont really compare brands anymore, especially as I will like them for reasons that are not what the typical person wants to compare. I dont care about a price or anything like that. My favorite brands are the ones that push the edge of design. Yearn or Oct. Tenth are similar. If I just measured design alone, I have seen more things my speed by Oct Tenth in terms of color and design i.e. two tones etc. But Yearns value for money is nearly unmatched at $120 less. So it really depends on what you value. Neither is better than the other IMHO as I can pick pluses and minuses on both.
If you have wide feet I'd go with Oct Tenth. Yearn makes a wide width but not a double wide like Oct Tenth.
I have both and Oct Tenth is higher quality but I like the insta designs of Yearn more. Where I live they cost the same in the end so I'd be curious if Oct Tenth shoe pics
@@jackobrien1026 thanks for sharing!
@@kamala80 thanks for sharing!
In England they are on Trickers and Crockett and Jones price point, and i know which I'd buy, English Shoes and boots are the best, and living in the Northamptonshire borders I've visited the factories and seen the exacting standards built to, the leather used and the skilled craftsman at work
Thanks for sharing
I was in London a few weeks ago and spent part of two different days on Jermyn Street. During that time I walked through Trickers, Crockett and Jones, and Arterton (Yearn’s UK distributor). The price of the Yearn shoes was £150 less than anything in Trickers or C&J. If you’re talking about Crockett and Jones Handgrade line, which would be the most direct comparison, the Yearn’s were almost £300 less than the C&J’s. I love English Northampton-made shoes…they’re my favorite shoe companies in the world. But there is a fairly substantial price difference between Yearn and their English competitors.
@@Maitreya0208 I've just looked on Atherton website, Yearn pricing around £20-40 per pair cheaper than C and J good luck selling them at that price point, serious competition from established brands, have to be half that to even tempt me, example Yearn Balmoral boots £535 C and J Coniston £575, I've two pairs of Coniston one pair 30 years old, still amazing condition, the other pair admittedly bought from C and J factory shop, rough out suede getting better and better with age and wearing.
@@Maitreya0208 for sure there is...in labor cost alone but also in branding/history etc. You definitely "pay" for the fact that something is "made in England".
I did not see this model on the website; how do you order them?
It is an MTO model. Order by contacting info@yearnshoemaker.com . Tell them you saw it here for a quick response
Hi sir... Will your brand consider manufacturing in China? Maybe a new line... Similar to yearn, acme etc... With your own twist... 😊
No, it will not. Not anytime soon at least. But I am working on a handwelted line ;-) made in Europe
Wow looking forward to it... 🙏
@@irawanwijaya7951 thank you! 🙏
Hello dear friend, I would like to ask you a question, what reference could you give me about Sesseben shoes? They have very nice models, but how reliable is it? Are your shoes truly as shown in your photos? kind regards
Never heard of the brand you are asking about
I don't get it. You can't see the shoe on their website. What's the point of highlighting a shoe that they make that you can't research online? Especially since they are trying to sell this shoe international.
Its a made to order at the moment. But yes I have expressed the same sentiments. I dont make the rules though. I asked for a link to provide so hopefully they add it soon. But if you email them and reference this video yiu can certainly order a pair.
Thanks Justin. Great job. Sorry I missed you at the trunk show ver the weekend. Wanted to get there just couldn’t fit it in. These shoes look great. They do look like Corthays but at a quarter of the price. That’s the attraction.
@@timothyprakope2069 no worries. Rough weather that day ;-) they told me that these are only available as an MTO order and to contact them via IG DM.
