Reverse welt construction and with hand inseam much better and rank best and
Norvegese and Bentivegna very very and rank best.
It good price with blake rapid.
Size is very funny,
it can run half size small many time but not all time.
No.
Some place have no serrated sock and other place have serrated sock.
It make no difference with this shoe.
It is top line machine constructed shoe.

So this model of Santoni marked as Goodyear inside is better fit/finish and construction than the Fate A Mano line?

The blake rapid is more hard shoe than the goodyear.
Blake rapid still very good to wear,
goodyear better to wear me think.

I'd also like to know how to figure out if it is blake or reverse welt construction and hand inseam?
