Pretty sure they're reverse pigskin, Tyler of Blackbird used to own a pair in the same material:

hey guys

Just sifting through from page 60-70 onwards

Question on sizing as there are some differences between what PNP suggested as opposed to experiences on SF

If I'm a true size 9, wearing 41 CP achilles lows, what should I go for in Guidi ?

Some people say guidi 43 is too tight in the toe box for size 9'ers

Should i go for a 44 then ?

How about a 45 or don't bother .. ? http://www.styleforum.net/t/291224/...r-boots-with-bags-box-and-extra-laces-size-45

Would like to know sizing for:

Guidi
Carpe
CCP
Buttero

its model dependent but if youre a 41 in cp a 45 in guidis is gonna be way too big for any model. im a 44 in cp and i wear 46 in guidi laceups

Hey thanks

I would say I'm more like a 42 CP, but 41 CP worked out for me due the stretch

chiggah, i'd say whatever is your true shoe size then +2 in guidi and expect a tight toe box, thus if you are a 42 then get a 44,

i am a us 11 which is a 44 and in guidi i am a 46 (minimum)

S40 with double sole.

^sexy how thick is the leather?

 

[hurhur]

I'm not sure about the exact specifications, but they are thicker than my guidi 992 and 988. they are in great condition considering i got them for a little over 4 bills.

 

[gettoasty]

J/W but do you guys pick these up mostly on eBay or predominately on Yahoo! Japan?

The toe cap is "under" the toe box. It's meant to help preserve the shape of the toe box area. As far as I'm aware is no mens guidi model with a cap toe. That being said I'd personally would steer clear of any of the MS models.

Thanks for the clarification. Curious, why do you say steer clear of the MS models? Is it just an aesthetic thing?

Now I'm confused. I am usually a 10.5/11 in American sizes and I emailed PNP with my foot measurment (27.5cm) and they suggested a 44.

they are insane if they told you a us11 will fit in a guidi 44

a us 11 is about 27.9cm and guidi are super tight, so unless something changed its still size 2 up

Ah gotcha, thanks. Wrinkled leather ninja sock.

Yeah, that's why I'm confused. Luigi from PNP said his foot measures 27cm and he wears 43 in Guidi so he suggests for my foot (27.5cm), I get a 44.
