    I was wondering about sizing and I’m glad because this video convinced me to get an 8 in the future for when I do buy these shoes. For most of my shoes I wear a size 9 (Vans, Nike, New Republic), but with my boots/dress shoes I wear an 8.5 as well as Converse as those are known to run a half size bigger. The company of Koio even told me themselves that their capris do run slightly on the larger side, so if you got an 8 and still have room I bet that’ll be the case for me as well.

      If you have a ruler you could try to measure your foot and compare it to their size chart. That would be the safest bet to make sure you get the right size.

    I just received mine yesterday but I will probably return them. They fit great but it is much lighter in person compared to video and their website . Going to exchange it for black with white sole or white with light gum sole

    Hey everyone! Check out my review of the Koio Capri. These are premium Italian leather sneakers. Koio was gracious enough to supply me with a promo code as well for a free cleaning kit. Promo Code for Free Cleaning Kit (active starting May 29, 2020): CONSUMERDOSSIER

    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?

    • @EricTMeraki
      @EricTMeraki  3 роки тому +1

      They kind of run large so I would say size down if you're in between sizes. Go with the majority of you shoe sizes if you're unsure what your actual size is.

      To me, these have the cleanest and most minimal profile. If you want one that similar to CPs these are the closest IMO.

    do these fit narrow? i tried on a pair axel arigato and they are too narrow for me. Was wondering if these fit narrow or have a bit more room?

    • @EricTMeraki
      @EricTMeraki  4 роки тому

      They don't feel narrow to me, but I don't have wide feet so can't really say for sure. They are similar to CPs in terms of fit.

    i have 3 pairs of koio from the koio store. I just noticed my white and castagna say "koio new york city" on the tongue but the sandstone has the symbol on the tongue. Did they give me two fake versions? I have not seen any video with koio new york city on the tongue. The ones I always see have the symbols like yours.

    What happens if I don't use a shoe tree for my leather sneakers?

    • @EricTMeraki
      @EricTMeraki  3 роки тому

      It could lose it's shape after some time. I wouldn't worry too much on getting a shoe tree, even stuffing it with paper or cardboard can help too when not wearing it. The key for leather shoes is to give it some time to settle in after you wear it.

      For light scratches and scuffs, this should work. Get the appropriate shade for your sneaker.

      Eric T Meraki thank you. I have the same shoes, same color. Since it is veggie tan, they are prone to scratch. I guess will get the light brown.
