Enzo Bonafe Handmade Shoes.

[VRaivio]



Can Bonafe duplicate the vertical reverse (?) stitch at the front tip of Edward Green's Dover/Nevis? I'm talking about the stitching that makes it a split toe.

I've read that EG only has a few people hand-sewing these pie-crust aprons and it takes several years to reach consistent, clean seams. More likely doing this same operation hour by hour from day to day every single year will drive the craftsmen mental. Either way, I haven't seen as beautiful crusts from any other maker out there.

Modified Button Boot in Ivory Suede and Black Calf for our friend Down Under.

Modified model 3725 in Hidro Volpe (suede).

A lot of great MTO's that you are killing me with there Patrik!! Will post them soon!

They are experimenting with this but this far it's in the beta stage.

Have you compared it with the Gaziano & Girling Hove?

Just about to go out but I thought I'd share a quick photo of my black Bonafe wholecuts just received a few hours ago. The materials are great and I love the shape.

Those are gorgeous shoes. The suede accents make a plain brown captoe have a little extra flair, and yet still be classy at the same time.
