The Official Artisanal "streetwear" footwear (boots, shoes, sandals) thread (Guidi, CCP, Augusta, M.

[Ragechester]

Can anyone point me towards a entry level baller shoe maker that does size 46/13?

I've been reading this thread since page one for a couple months looking for someone else who asked this question.

Custom Guidi sounds good, kinda figured that would be the answer, looks like it takes a while but thats the brand that I would likely prefer anyways. Are there any options for size 46-47 Carpe or something similar?

Can anyone who's ordered custom Guidi boots talk about the process a bit. Do you just contact their customer service to start? thanks

At least they are not like Guidi laces though, which break under the least strain...

Really? Dang, I've never broken any of my guidi laces -- have always been impressed by how long they last given the strain I induce when tying my shoes (I pull pretty hard).

The worst laces were the ones on my av_field derbies. Those definitely disintegrate under any strain. I dunno if the lace leather was buried too or the dye was just stronger than anticipated, but yeah always wanted to replace them with guidi laces.

I haven't done it myself personally, but I have a friend that has ordered two times already. I'd do what he did and go through PNP Firenze for the custom order (Matteo's the best!). It's fairly straightforward, mention what leather, color, and model you want, and they ask for a 50% deposit, and you pay the rest when it ships to them. Also make sure to ask if it's possible to order, there seems to only be certain time frames they can, but they will tell you something like "We will be able to place the next order December." or what not if so.

I ordered through Holger, and I know that he has a good track record, and the prices are reasonable as well. It sounds similar at PNP, and prices seem comparable.

They are apparently a little behind this year, though

Cheers,

Fok.

Seconding Holger/Hide-m for custom orders. He's always kept very good track of my orders/requests (even before payment was made) even though I'm not a baller customer, unlike PNP

Matteo keeps good track of orders/requests and is extremely accommodating before payment also according to my friend (not a baller customer) along the few times I've inquired about items (no stock in my size unfortunately). I'm sure you can't go wrong with Holger though, as I've heard only good things.

I own too much ****.

For those size 43, 44, and 45s out there: I'm clearing house. The collection is being culled to a more reasonable amount. There's m.a+, A1923, IS, Carpe, AV_Field, and SftM footwear to go. Holler at me if you're interested to know what I've got before I start listing it all in the usual places.

Also, a load of clothing has to go too. Same brands as above, plus Devoa, LUC, old Damir, and a few odd pieces of Julius. Sizes are small/46.

If this breaks the advertising your own junk rule, then delete away. Just thought some folks in the thread might be interested.

I changed my mind, m_moria's B and C lasts are also really cool.

Is M moria now offering non-shell options? Holger just posted a pic of a destroyed horse pair on Instagram

Only for the sneaker boot.

speaking of sneaker boots..

Spoiler: the devil finally catch me

 

[bdude]

^^ congrats! Love my drips!

 

[sinnedk]

@wormwood what leather are those bad boys? Mind putting a picture of the tag so I know what to order?

 

[neostrifeX]

Those look like the common ROOMS-PTC (kangaroo) drips, AM/2524 and color 010 (black). I have a pair in white so it's really my only reference, but I'm pretty sure I'm right.
