Saving my pennies so I can order some like these. They look incredible!

Thanks a lot!

Can anyone advise how I can order from him? And can the payment be done by paypal or credit card?

Like said above, Antonio answers everything if you contact him. And here's a buying guide if you want an overview (not updated yet with the new info about the Aurum line though): http://www.shoegazing.se/2014/02/16/kopguide-antonio-meccariello/

i saw his carpincho suede 3 eyelet derby on his tumblr.

super sexy. loving the olive colored carpincho.

may be adding this to my repetoire in the near future.

god damn this shoe obsession!

was living in south america...used to see the carpincho's out at night. never thought that they would make good shoes...they are unpleasant animals...i am glad they serve a pleasant purpose as good material for shoes.

Two shoes that I am making now. First one is second production Aurum shoe, now is not finish coloring, is dark blue and white alligatore. I make the final shoes in color all blue like jeans.






Second shoe is normal work, not Aurum. Costumer does not want alligatore in the heel so later I make it black.

Antonio, do you apply a top coat on the finished shoes to seal the colors? Or do you leave them naked with only wax polish? And if you do apply top coat, what do you use? Acrylic resolene?

I only use natural ingredients for color my shoes. After coloring I only use wax and I do not use synthetic like Acrylic. The colors of my shoes do not dissapear because the color goes inside the leather and not only on top.

Cheaper line I guess? about 60-70 000 Yen. They called it Napolitano by Meccariello.

How do you prefer trousers to be finished?

  • Plain hem

  • Cuffed (1.5 inches or less)

  • Cuffed (more than 1.5 inches)

  • No preference, as long as the proportions work
