I adore listen to you ...I may not be as sophisticated as you but can listen and watch to you all day (by the way love expression "shoes in my closet")....
Thank you for leaving the sneezing scene in the video! It quite literally made me laugh out loud! Thank you for publishing positive and engaging content during these strange times. Be safe and be blessed! Cheers!
23:25 It’s called a buttonhook. I remember learning the word because it was something they used to check under the eyelids of newly arrived immigrants at Ellis Island for some disease or other.
So many comments about You, our Icon Hugo, but also we have to remember that there is always a woman behind a great man! You both are Icons, Hugo and Sonia! Love your work! R.
Very informative. I would have thought the penny loafer was an American shoe -- good to know it was made by JM Weston. And thank you, thank you, thank you for including the American tassel loafer from Alden. It is a classic and indeed a staple for gentlemen in the US.
One of the rare times that i could watch 49 minutes video, really enjoyed watching & listening to your knowledge, Thank you for the valuable informations.
Just gained even more respect for you, Hugo, when I recognized the french lining on what probably is a Clairfontaine cloth-bound notebook that you wrote your notes on. A gentleman in all the aspects, as always.
@@kazochrymowicz3076 Thank you Kaz! And in case you don't know already, you can access additional content on our Patreon page. Patreon.com/sartorialtalks. Cheers, Hugo
A fantastic video. My late father liked shoes by Church's or by Florsheim. From your video, I adore the Vilalta Deacon Chelsea boot and the Gucci loafer.
Goodness me ... what an enjoyable episode! The sneeze and the conspiratorial, hushed confession of wearing Loafers with no socks 😱 ... hilarious! The List of Iconic Shoes ... simply wonderful. The Homage paid to the various Shoemaking Houses and individual, extrordinary Artisans ... very respectful. Thank you, once again, to both Hugo and Sonya for a very enjoyable and educational experience ... tuning in to Sartorial Talks is like hanging out with close Family and shooting the breeze, about a mutually loved topic, over coffee.
Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed your video. Your passion for the subject is infectious. Over the past year I have adjusted my diet and lost about 25 pounds. I told myself that when I slimmed down I would redo my wardrobe. I'm so happy to have found your channel before making my choices. Your video on which suits to purchase when building a wardrobe of a gentleman is priceless. I'll be taking your advice, for sure. Two points. One, I love the fact that you left the sneeze in the final cut. You are so genuine. I'm sure you might have been tempted to edit it out. I'm glad you didn't. Secondly, next time have your wife come from behind the camera and say ' hello' to us before the videos ends. By the way, I also enjoyed your video with Kirby Allison.
Thank you my friend. And concerning the Arca patent leather, it's a wonderful shoe but not that easy to pull off because of the color. But as the boldest sartorialist in Oregon, I'm sure you can make this work! All our best to you and your wife. Hugo & Sonya
I really like that you soften your stance on the wear of shoes. Guess what? You actually enjoyed it. I love this. This is called living life. I salute you sir.
With the Button Balmoral boot the tool as I call it is "Button Hook". I made my own with a little paper clip and a popsicle stick. Simple tool. They work great when your fingers no longer do.
I'm a simple man, I see a Sartorial video about shoes, I click. Very informational and I must say I have impressed some people with my new found knowledge of men's shoes thanks to you. Salut et merci.
Your Sartorial Talks are amazing. I never thought I could sit and listen to you talk about shoes and the Gentlemen's style. I've learned so much from your channel. Many warm thoughts to you and your wife and stay safe!! I look forward to more videos! And P.S. God Bless you!! lol
Dear Hugo apologies for the late check in, I hope you are all keeping well and safe, thank you so much for the content topic, truly fascinating, kind regards your friend Ryan.
I absolutely love the collar on Hugo's shirt and how well it works with the tie pin FYI - the RTW Berlutti's I ordered in the past showed no love for my wide feet and had to find a new home 🙁 FYI - Vass's P2 lasts are compatible with my feet. I ordered a second pair of Vass's recently ♡
Thank you for sharing your experience (wide feet is a common problem, especially in the USA). My collar is an old fashion pointed collar (very 1940s/1950s). Cheers, Hugo
Dear Hugo! As I started to work in the Consulting Industrie I had the pleasure to buy some Suits and Shoes. You're Advice i got through you're Videos we' re very important. Keep up the excellent work! Best Philipp
Bought 5 pairs of shoes early this year while in Paris after watching on of your program. 2 pairs of John Lobb and 3 pairs of Pierre Corthay. Love them but I'm not sure if i should thank you or stop watching your programs. Keep up the good work.
Mr Hugo, it is only because of you that someone like me from the other side of the world knows about the quality of shoes that exists and how exciting it is just to have this kind of knowledge about shoes. Much respect Sir.
A very interesting list. But again, like the other video about affordable shoes, I was expecting at least one Japanese shoemaker, I was expecting Fukuda Yohei to be on the list since his creations are also pretty daring in my opinion.
Fukuda produces beautiful shoes indeed (especially his balmoral brogue) but it may be too recent to be called iconic (although I really like his work as well as the work of TYE and of Okuyama, although only bespoke). Cheers, Hugo
you've got a better vocabulary for describing aesthetics than most of your native English speaking counterparts on youtube. thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this. stay safe!
SARTORIAL TALKS., great overview. I think drivers belong on the list as well :) Also, this video is an overview of the models. I'd love to see a guide about the shapes of shoes - how squared the tip should be (e.g., on the Bontoni the tip looked a little brutal for me), the bubbles, the slopes, and the silhouettes of the front, etc. The rim - how wide should it be, how aggressive should the stitching be, and so on. In other words, if you're looking at a particular model of a shoe, how do you tell whether the model was implemented correctly (not the quality of construction but the style). Thank you.
Wonderfull as always Hugo. 49 Minutes went by as nothing......but now, sorry for this. 46:08 was saving my weekend :-). I guess Sonja was editing this video :D
Hey! i'm the follower who asked to have a single buckle model on your (french)list... And the brillantina is the most iconic that could be added. Great work!
Bonjour Sartorial Talks, Un tire bouton en anglais is Pull Button. C'est très près du français. Monsieur, j'ai adoré cette présentation. Enfin, un peu d'éducation relevant de la dignité qu'une personne peut cultiver...entre autres. Je n'ai pas vu le temps passer durant cette présentation. Merci encore.
Really humbling to hear that your first pair of proper shoes were 2nd hand Church's Hugo... My first proper shoes I bought quite recently are a 2nd hand pair of Trickers Stow Boots. And now due to watching your videos for guidance my second pair are "new" handgrade black cap toe oxfords by Carlos Santos. Thank you very much for your unbiased advice and knowledge on shoes.
Love the videos! They always manage to capture my attention in the best way possible. As I become more infatuated with the style world, I find that it is difficult to share or even explain this passion to those around me. Could you make a video where you guys explain the beauty and complexity that exists in a suit and why it is so capturing to people like us?
Good day Scott. We are "released" from confinement in the USA but when back to France (in a few days) we'll have to self-isolate again for 14 days. The time to produce a couple of episodes for this channel! Stay safe, Hugo & Sonya
I've been playing and replaying this for quite a few times. I really like the button balmorals that Justin Fitzpatrick have but I am not sure what outfit it would work best for. I wonder if you have any suggestions how to wear the button balmoral best. Cheers!
Excellent video. Learned a lot about the different shoe styles and some more history about the brands. I saw that gussetted shoe first on a Kirby Allison video. Never knew it was called the Churcill. I also noticed that you are not a huge fan of Pitti Uomo.
Well, we used to love Pitti Uomo, but now we only go there once a year because it evolved into a kind of peacock/ego circus. But it remains a great event of course! Hugo
Indeed Hugo, this beautiful list of iconic shoes would have not been complete without the famous Tassel Loafer of Alden. My heartfelt thanks for this eclectic and very informative video. I am also among those who did not see the time pass while watching; this tells a lot. Keep doing great and be assure that your content speak’ volumes.
Watching you sneezing is the nicest thing in this video.Thank you Hugo and Sonia for the amazing content you make.Keep up the good work.Be safe.As for your new book 'Shoes' how much it's estimated price will be ?
I always wonder what is the next shoe topic of your videos because you already cover a lot of shoe topic for the past few years. And wow wow what a clever topic and you pull it off. I pause the video and make a guess which is got it right at Arca Corthay, Decon Norman, Alessandro Berluti, Bonafe Button, JM 180 which is of course you talked about this particular shoes a lot of time in your other video. Besides that, you already touched on watch, why not one day on perfume? Dont you think it is also important to smell nice in order to become a gentlemen? Great video. Love it.
Hi Hugo. Thanks for the reply. Really appreaciate it. My personal choice would add another 2 pair of Edward Green which is split toe derby Dover and Galway boots. It has been copied and copied by almost all the brands in the world.
My button boots can be put on by hand without a buttonhook, however it does take more work than laces. I can put on both shoes in a minute and a half. I'm actually wearing them now!
I just returned from Morocco with a pair of Bensons. It's a third generation handmade shoe shop in Casablanca. They are very close to the Berluti whole cut and I chose them as an excellent example of the shoemaker's art.
Great episode. Good idea to do something different than video about basic shoes everyone's should have etc. After watching it I feel inspired to spend more time on looking into the variety of shoes that exist, have been created and look for something that will feet more my personality.
I'm not even at my 20s and I already know so much about classic menswear most particularly shoes from Sir Hugo's substantial teaching. It's a bit embarrassing for my old man that his own son manages to be the better and more knowledgeable gentleman.
Fantastic selection! If I could add a 23rd pair as a wild card, it might be the fabulous interpretation of the Belgian Loafer by Baudoin & Lange! BTW: I loved how you didn't cut out the sneezing. I laughed so hard. This shows how unpretentious you guys are. Much love from Germany! Have a save journey to europe.
Good day! This colour is quite difficult to define. It's grey/blue super170s wool with 5% of silk. The reaction of this fabric under the sun is just breathtaking. Cheers, Hugo
Lots of lovely shoes, but my favorite if you can say that, is the Paolo Scafora. I would love to own a pair, to bad thy don't have a store in New York... Thank you for the lesson of fine shoemaking!!!
Hey, great video. Needed on help with a decision. I am ordering a bespoke captoe oxford. I am confused weather to have quarter brogue or plain.. I mainly want to wear it for formal occasions/ office/ client meetings. Please advise.
@@Godlovesme77735 You can order it at The Urban Tie in Romania. Write them to ask for the tie I'm wearing in the last episode of Sartorial Talks. The owner is a good friend (Dan). Cheers, Hugo

A fantastic video. My late father liked shoes by Church's or by Florsheim. From your video, I adore the Vilalta Deacon Chelsea boot and the Gucci loafer.
Hi Hugo good to see are doing good and thank you for sharing patina is my favorite shoes 😁
Many thanks David. Stay safe! Hugo
The off the cuff nature of this video where you ask questions and go off on tangents is very comforting in a way. It's a pleasing format
Awesome teaching. I love listening to you talk about shoes and mens fashion. Keep doing what you do. I have six pairs from Justin Fitzpatrick.
In the U.S. we call the hook for the buttons on the shoes a "button hook". It was fun listening to your explanation of the various shoes.
Thank the Lord, another episode! Life has gotten better already! I love your format. Very simplistic and elegant.
Goodness me ... what an enjoyable episode!
The sneeze and the conspiratorial, hushed confession of wearing Loafers with no socks 😱 ... hilarious!
The List of Iconic Shoes ... simply wonderful.
The Homage paid to the various Shoemaking Houses and individual, extrordinary Artisans ... very respectful.

Lots of lovely shoes, but my favorite if you can say that, is the Paolo Scafora. I would love to own a pair, to bad thy don't have a store in New York... Thank you for the lesson of fine shoemaking!!!
Hey, great video. Needed on help with a decision. I am ordering a bespoke captoe oxford. I am confused weather to have quarter brogue or plain.. I mainly want to wear it for formal occasions/ office/ client meetings. Please advise.
That pocket square has featured on the channel more than anyone including Hugo😎💪🏽
It's indeed my "go-to" pocket square by Simonnot-Godard in France. Rust never sleeps! Hugo
Where can I get the tie you are wearing?
@@Godlovesme77735 You can order it at The Urban Tie in Romania. Write them to ask for the tie I'm wearing in the last episode of Sartorial Talks. The owner is a good friend (Dan). Cheers, Hugo
Hello. Enjoyed your presentation with Kirby. While in USA, please check out RGM watches. They are between Lancaster and Hershey, Pa. They make watches from scratch and some videos are on UA-cam.
Thank you John. I will take a look. Cheers, Hugo
