Koio is a better fitting shoe. Better quality and more comfortable. I have wide feet and even though the Cabell looks wider its much more narrow. Also the footed in the Koio is much softer. The customer service experience with Koio is extraordinary. They deal with issues quick and the staff weather online or by chat are incredible. Judy and Camille. Koio lives up to the hype. I had to get pay pal involved to return the Oliver Cabell shoes. I returned two pairs due to the squeaky sound when walking and the stiff tongue. I bought the 2 Koio capri!!! Love um!!!
I love how Koios look but they are currently a little outside my price point. Got some Greats about a year ago and they have been holding up great. Super comfortable and clean. Highly recommend!
$200 isn't a lot for a shoe that can last several years of daily wear. Assuming they're high quality. I've never tried them and don't plan on it. I doubt they would fit me well. None of these trendy shoes has an anatomical last. I see some on their site on sale for less than $100. That's a red flag to me. To be honest all these social brands are an automatic red flag from me. The fact that they claim they're a "$600 shoe" yet have them on sale for 95$ is a massive red flag to me. What kind of crack are they smoking to make that claim? If they're a $600 shoe, then sell them for $600 and see how it goes. how much do you think they actually cost to manufacture them? The fact that they tell you to loosen the laces for a wider fit is another red flag. That's not how it works, dawg.
Brock, love the reviews of the footwear, but just wanted to share-- your production here is really exceptional brother! The audio and video presentation of the descriptions is really WELL put together. Cheers!
@@mikebjx I wear a 42 in Koio and a 10 in Stan Smith's. I'm a 9 1/2 in most dress shoes, but can wear up to an 11 in gym shoes. My Asics running shoes are an 11, but I wear 10 1/2 in Nike. Hope that helps!
Hello Brock would you consider doing a video review for Magnanni dress shoes? I would be curious to see you take and how they compare to Allen Edmonds. FYI many Magnanni shoes will be on sale during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale. Thank you for all the shoe reviews you do and for helping to keep me stylish.
I haven’t tried either, but have researched Oliver Cabel. Personally I like the look of them over the Koio. It’s also nice that you can get them on sale. Still hard to justify spending over $200 on a pair of shoes! 👟
You really do get what you pay for. Especially when they’re Italian made. Honestly once you have them in hand and try them on, smell the leather you’ll understand why. They’re basically sneakers that are the qualify of dress shoes and you know they’re going to last a long time.
Tried oliver cabell twice. Threw the first one away at 2019 after 4 months because it squeaked a lot. Other reviews mentioned this too. The tongue is too long it digs into my ankle. After 4 months, it still doesn't break in. Bought another 2 years later but size was too big to judge. But had the same issue with the tongue and the stiffness taking too long to break in because oliver cabell inside are not lined with fur like koio. Tried koio at the retail shop and doesn't hurt at all. It's comfortable, narrower silhouette, fits me better and just overall looked better. Also sustainability seems to be on koio side. It's more expensive but after throwing away my Oliver cabell once after 4 months and another not worn for years. I personally choose to just invest in a good shoe that fits me. Hope this helps to others deciding.
For me, the Oliver Cabell's fit my feet better than Koio. Size 38 is just a tad too tight for me as I wear it throughout the day while 39 is a bit too long
First time viewer, great video and very informative review. Never wore a pair of Oliver Cabell but do own Greats Royale and the Koio Capri. I prefer my Koio’s over the Greats because of the slim and streamlined silhouette. I feel the Greats are a tad bulky and heavier on feet. Maybe someday i’ll try the Oliver Cabells due to their positive reviews. Thanks again and look forward to more of your reviews. 👏🏼 👏🏼 ❤ 👞
I only ever buy Dr Martins and Reebok classic trainers always in a European size 8 and ordered white Koio capris in size 8 but very big fitting and had to add heal grips and a Dr Martins insole to make them wearable as the standard foam insert lifts the heel up in the shoe which tends to make them feel sloppy when walking, all of this could have been avoided by going down a size but I ordered them online from USA to Australia so difficult to return and there are no retail stockists for these shoes in Australia. Great quality product though I wish a shoe size was standard like the lengths on a ruler!
I've never owned a pair of Koio's, but I do own a pair of Oliver Cabell's and I prefer them over the Koio's. The reasoning is because the Margom sole on the Cabell's is lower in profile than the Koio's and the aesthetic is much more pleasing in my opinion.
i bought low 1 as a beater and common project as for more special occasions since i truly think, regardless of everything else but the silhouette alone, common project is top 1 out there. imo
I have a pair of the triple white Koio capri's and I love them! But I'm looking to get some all blacks and Oliver cabells are on sale right now so I might try those out!
I’m looking to get a second pair of white sneakers and will look into both of these. I have a pair of Gustins, which are also made in Italy with comparable materials. At $169 they are a bargain, but they are crowdsourced and have a bit of a wait to get them.
Hey Brock. Great video, I love all of your content. Any chance you could do a video on explaining why $200, $300 or even $400 dollars is justified on a pair of white sneakers, and do a comparison with say a $50 and $100 pair? When it comes to boots and shoes I can understand the value of having a goodyear welt or blake stitch construction, and the superior value of a leather versus a rubber sole. But with white sneakers I bulk at paying so much money for what I consider to be fairly low cost, no frills items. I own a few pairs of affordable white sneakers (we call them trainers in the UK) and I enjoy wearing them, especially in the summer, but I'd love to know what Koio and Common Projects offer that makes them cost so much more?
Still on the fence on what size to get since the sneakers I mostly wear are either half size bigger, and half size smaller. with that said I wear a Adidas Samba: 7.5US Mens , Chucks 70 low: Size 7 US mens, Both of which have a 25.5cm from heel to toe. What size can you recommend?
Excellent video. I thoroughly enjoyed your insight into both the sneakers - it was great. I would like to hear your opinion on these two brands: Thursday Boots Premium Low Top White Sneakers and Idrese Nuno White Sneakers. They both look pretty awesome but I am a little sceptical. I was hoping to get your opinion on them. Thanks.
Got a pair of Koio’s in Onyx and was blown away. The silhouette, the quality in every aspect from the leather, margom sole, stitching, etc. left me without a single regret. Basically the desire to ever want to purchase a pair of Common Projects was completely negated. Next up a pair of Triple Whites.
How was the fit of the Koios? The website says they fit true to size, but the fellow in this video says they run one full size big. What was your experience? Also, what about width? Do the Koios feel significantly more narrow than other shoes you've worn, or are they comparable? Thanks in advance 🤚
@@kit2770 so I typically wear a size 10.5 in most shoes. Sometimes an 11. I ended up getting size 10 and they fit great! I also have somewhat wide feet and grabbed the normal width and they fit good. Sometimes I wonder what a Wide would feel like, but no complaints here. Hope this helps :)
Brock, great video with great details. I have tried a pair of AceMarks white sneakers, they are really nice and surprisingly comfortable (said by me who wears sporty lifestyle sneakers most of the time). I am curious why it didn't make it to your top picks? It will be great to know the concerns if any. Also, I just got my Geller Trainers from Beckett Simonon, bigger surprise than the AM sneaker, crazy cushioned insole.
No comparison, the CP's have perfect proportions and a sleek profile, it's all in the details. Gustin sells a perfect copy of CP's but hundreds cheaper, made in Italy as well.
has anyone tried Hugo Boss mirage sneakers? they are much better quality than koio and common project, but I feel that I have too much heel slipped, does anyone know why and will heel slipped disappear with time?
Great video, great info; thx. Quick question, I'm partial to textured/pebbled leathers & wondered how the sneakers from To Boot NY match up against these? Also, on the question of leathers, which would be better or more desirable between "full-grain tumbled calf leather", "Italian calf leather" & "Italian alpine deer-skin"?
I got the Thursday all white and not that impressed got a pair of cobbler Union and they are much better. Looking at biting the bullet and getting common projects but after seeing them cut in half and finding out the quality is not that great compared to the price seems like there are better shoes for less money.
or get thursday shoes for $129 and save a ton of money. End of the day they are minimal white sneakers. there's only so much you can do to make a $129 sneaker into a $400 sneaker.
Great video mate👌 I think "more affordable" option sounds like you also need to skip quality and value which isn't the case, all things considered the Oliver Cabell, Artisan Lab, Greats are the best 'value' white trainer available right now. That being said, like you say buy what you can afford but value for money is a smarter way to go.
I'm looking at Oliver Cabell site but that shoe you have isn't listed, anymore. Specifically wanted the tan insole because it looks nice with the gold lettering. They're all white now. Unless someone can help me out, please?
Koio doesnt come in my size. I hv small feet. I ordered size 6 and got it delivered to KL, Malaysia. And they didnt fit me. At last, I bought Converse Chuck Taylor Ox Leather
An often overlooked brand is Mephisto, which is a 60 year old French brand, known for making the most comfortable shoes in the world. (George Clooney, Schwarzenegger, The Pope...are all fans). They're super high quality and hand made in France since the 60's. Their white sneaker is the Mephisto Cristiano. Most importantly, you get the same advantages as the Cabell and the Koio, but for a lower price point. Plus they have a patented 'soft air' cushioning system.
Koio actually came out with a Gen 2 shoe for 295 and the Gen 1 are on sale for 215 right now. I bought a pair last week for 295 and realized they sent Gen 1 and they are denying it but clearly it is Gen 1 as Margum is still used. Which I'm fine with, but then should have been charged 215 not 295. Have you compared Gen 1 and 2?
read alot of shady stuff about Oliver Cabell not sending orders/sending fake tracking numbers/terrible customer service for refunds. Have any thoughts?
I've never experienced anything like that. But every brand has customer service problems, and the only people who leave reviews/comments about a brand (for the most part) are the people who've had bad experiences. So it might be a vocal minority.
How did you stretch your shoe? I have the black greats Royale, my foot size is a 10 but I got a 9.5 after being told it runs big. It is not wide enough in the forefoot. I've had it for a year.

Just ordered the OC I think they look better than the koios!
I prefer Koio Capri's hands down! Mine are so comfortable and very stylish.
what made you pick the koio over the cabells?
I've been waiting for the video...you always come with great Content ..I really love to watch your videos
Thank you, sir!
Agreed! Gratitude MM!
Just got the Capri for 175!!! Biggest steal ever. Not gonna lie I should've gone for a size 7
Do you wear a size 8, normally? I wear a size 8 and was gonna downsize to 7 is why I'm asking.

Great video Brock, as usual.
I have the all white leather sneakers (Reids) from Beckett Simonon! They are great, the quality is on point.
I have wide feet and Koio offers a wide option, but just the shipping alone was 130$ Europe. Safe to say I went with the OC.
I own the Greats Royale in black/white and I kinda like their shape, though people feel they look bulky.
Also check out the Beckett Simonon Reid. Yes, you have to wait on them. But for the price, they are incredible.
