Sorry I'm sort of new to non-sneaker shoes, but I'm wondering how would you wear these new MMMs?

I quite fancy them.

Also, if Im at 47 in Guidi, is that just a straight 45 in Augusta?

What is your US shoe size? Augusta sizing is either TTS or size down 1 depending on the last/toe box. Prices at Atelier are 2000-2250 usd depending on the euro.

Hmm. Anything have anything to say about Vaz Rajan?


Quality is supposed to be really good- on sale now at Antonioli and Luisaviaroma too.

anyone know how i can get some of those japanese butteros in a 43.5?


I think the largest size offered by most JP stores in Buttero is going to be a 43 (not sure). The 43 is probably closer to a 44 or 44.5 anyways as Buttero runs big.

i have a pair of barneys butteros and they are 43.5 and fit well, are you saying the Japanese butteros are a different size?

No- I'm saying most Japanese stores don't order anything larger than a Buttero 43 (some don't even order half sizes). Barneys in the USA buys a much larger range of sizes but only in a few boots. Sizing is the same for JP or USA.

Do you know what boot you want? Maybe ask a proxy to look into it for you?

I just saw this- I really don't recommend proxy Buttero in from JP unless they are a grail piece to you- you are going to end paying 70-80k yen and it that piece you are much better going though SZ's and Sufu's classifieds for used Guidi, Augusta, etc....
