Silly question: anyone tried ordering from Skoaktiebolaget and did you get hit with duties/imports/custom fees? My understanding is that made made in the EU are exempt. Been eyeing some Carlos Santos...

Skooak knows what they are doing and will mark the package according so you dont get hit with duties if its a CETA product. You will have to pay taxes though

Got hit on tax, not duties.

Perfect, thanks guys!!

Anyone heard of Viacavour? They are having a Brunello Cucinelli Trunk show.

Via Cavour is a fancy place in Yorkville. They carry Paola Scafora and some Bruno Cucinelli

Skoak will declare them correctly however there's no guarantee the Canada customs people will assess it correctly. Earlier in the year I had a pair of shoes clearly marked made in Italy and still got dinged with duties.

Is anyone still getting hit with duties on EU goods recently?

I've purchased a couple things from them so far. They have one of the best fabric selections I've found for a made to measure/bespoke shop. The staff are extremely friendly and they'll help you with whatever you need.

Most of time nope, haven't been hit with duties for most of my purchase in EU. On one single occasion, I was hit with duties on a pair of Common projects, I sent a claim to custom and claims the shoes is made in Italy and should not be pay duties, they refunded me.
