23 Oct: Carlos Santos Shoes Review: Double Monk Straps In Wine Shadow Patina

If you have been following my articles in Misiu Academy, you would know how impatient I was for my newest shipment from Carlos Santos.

A family business of hand-made quality shoes from Portugal, Carlos Santos has been making shoes for decades. This time, I received one of the last orders of the famous Carlos Santos Patina Service from Skoaktiebolaget and I am here to let you know all about it.

So please welcome the Carlos Santos Double Monk Straps in Wine Shadow Patina in this comprehensive review. Is the hype real? Are they as good as they say?

How to dress like Tom Hiddleston - GQ

16 Oct: Dress Like Tom Hiddleston – Style Analysis

We draw inspiration from celebrities and popular figures every day. Sometimes that is good while other times it is very, very bad. Not all of them are role models (or should they be at all?) but they seem to influence our lives one way or another.

The same applies to style. Instead of following hideous trends (looking at you LeBron James with the short suit pants..) we can look for inspiration from other sources. Tom Hiddleston is not only one of my favourite actors and villains from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he is also voted one of the most stylish men in the world.

This article goes through some of his stylistic choices and gives you alternatives or suggestions on how to replicate that look.

09 Oct: When To Dry Clean Your Suit – Do’s And Dont’s

Cie Shoes Review - Triple Monks
28 Jan: Cie Shoes Review | Welted Triple Monk Strap Boots In Brown Patina

Earlier this month I got a chance to try on a new brand from Shanghai called Cie Shoes. My friend Mike from the USA received his pair and it was sadly a little big for him. Lucky for me the size was spot on for me and here we are today reviewing them!

It is a style I never thought I would wear, but it works fairly well. It is a Triple Monk Strap Boot with side zippers and a custom dark brown patina. Let’s take a look and see if it is a good buy or there are problems with it.

22 Jan: Carlos Santos Factory Visit | An Incredible Experience Worth Living

What a way to start 2020!

I had a chance to visit the Carlos Santos Factory near Porto in Portugal last week. I took more than 700 pictures and a lot of videos. I explored tons of new styles and never seen before models that gave me food for thought. Above everything, I met the whole family of Carlos Santos, who changed my life this past year. We talked shoes and we went through all the production of each pair of shoes.

Absolutely incredible. Read all about it in the latest article!
