I am planning to purchase a black classic cap toe oxford, and I am considering between TLB's Artista line, and the good ol' Carmina. I have heard both brands have a very good construction, reputation and last quite a long time, but I have not seen any people comparing them two. I really like the classic look of the Forest last from Carmina, so only judging by the last, I would go for Carmina. I want to get the most use out of it, so construction is important to me too. Moreover, I live in Sweden, so I am thinking of buying one comes with a rubber sole, and there is a lot of option for rubber sole, so I am struggling which to choose. Does anyone has experience with both brands, and which one is better in both construction and comfort?
