Oliver Cabell Low 1 Sneaker Review - Are They Worth It?

About this video

Weston and her husband Dorian evaluate the Oliver Cabell low-top sneaker in this installment of their “Worth It” series. They praise the shoe’s minimalist design, high-quality full-grain leather construction, and mid-tier pricing, but identify a significant functional flaw: persistent squeaking that occurs across the shoe regardless of sizing or break-in attempts.

Key takeaways

  • Weston argues the Oliver Cabell low-tops feature excellent design that rivals Common Projects, with subtle details like an angular tongue and minimal branding that she appreciates
  • Weston notes the shoes are constructed from full-grain calfskin leather made in Spain and maintain their appearance well, recommending shoe trees or keeping the original paper inserts to prevent creasing
  • Weston concludes the shoes are not worth purchasing because the squeaking issue is a deal-breaker that undermines functionality, despite the strong design and construction qualities
