Like the style of these boots. Appear to be quality construction and good value for money, but I'm bang between size 10 and 11. 10.5 would've been perfect fit. :-(
Well worth the price for these. Great alternative to sneakers for hot weather.
Easy to order, perfect fit, great quality and price, love them..
I confess that I am an ardent OS fan and buyer of shoes/boots, clothing and accessories so may be a little biased, but the bag is fantastic. The leather is amazing and I think this bag will get used much more than older Kella tan bag I have. I like it so much that I bought the matching backpack.
I confess that I would probably like it to be slightly larger but that’s my fault for wanting to put to much stuff in it.
Another fantastic OS purchase. Next !!
The fleece over shirt is extremely well-made and looks great on. I would usually wear a large but the medium was absolutely perfect. Great item to lay up. And the team at Oliver Sweeney was as helpful as usual assisting me.
Always well made brand....very happy with the quality
These are first class. Stylish. Comfortable and lightweight and perfect for smart casual office or social. Cannot fault them. Classy footwear from a great brand
Great quality product as usual from OS, well cut excellent material. However it’s the customer service from OS that is so refreshingly excellent that almost makes me want to find something to purchase just to deal with them!
I have had my eye on these for a while and they now been reduced in the Black Friday sale. As stated in the ad, they are very comfortable and stylish to the point of not ever going out of fashion (I had a similar pair many years ago). On my first day of wearing it was clear that they did not need to be worn in. The leather is very supple and moulds to your foot in no time at all. Lovely to walk in because of the thick sole which are ideal for wet conditions. They are very well made as you would expect for the price. I would recommend getting a pair.
My first pair of Ossos trainers are 6 years old and still going strong!
However, incredibly from the first wearing these are probably more comfortable, with a thicker padded tongue and obviously new thicker soles!
Being suede (vs leather) they are also so soft and supple.
Another pair of great Sweeney footwear!
Not great stitching for this buckle shoe. It looks pretty moderate unlike other brands I have. Comfortable yes but nothing more hence the 4 rating.
The attention to detail needs improvement.
Pros:
- Nice subtle finish on the leather, allowing the natural beauty of the leather to come through.
- Lots of organisation pockets inside.
- Nice and big brass hardware on the strap and its connecting points.
- Leather padding on the strap is a premium touch.
Cons:
- Biggest flaw: no hardware connecting handles to body makes them flap about halfway between up and down when using the strap. If you break in the leather I guess it would sort of drape down by itself, but at that point it would also look worn out due to a wrinkly handle. Needs to be fixed.
- Main zipper is of average quality at best, quite hard to work and impossible to open close one-handed without a firm hold on the bag.
- Another big flaw: 90 degree angled corners on the zipper are near impossible to open/close even with two hands. Might improve with time but it would take months/years to break it in unless you were explicitly trying to do so.
- No back pocket/luggage passthrough; it would have been an easy and practical addition.
- Not a fan of the front zipper pocket and its flap cover. I guess it was for protection from rain, but the flap makes it hard to access the pocket. I would have preferred either a waterproof zipper (quite common) with no flap at all, or even better a magnetic pocket with a slightly bigger flap.
- Mine smelled bad, 'cheap leathercraft shop in Spain/Morocco' kind of smell.
- It doesn't have a country of origin tag anywhere but I'd bet money on Turkey or India.
perfect. love the fact they boot like soles, rather than the usual flat sole
As per the above....very happy though. Textbook OS.
