Alberto Fasciani
size 43 (fits like a US 10 - 10.5)
Full leather lined
Leather soles
Made in Italy
Alberto Fasciani doesn't get a lot of play on Styleforum - his stuff is overpriced (these are almost a grand when new, which is BS) and some of the styles are kind of wild. But these chelsea low boots are awesome and are the most comfortable boots I own except aldens. Very attractive and easy-wearing. I like the height on these - lower than RM Williams boots so easier to get on. This allows them to omit the elastic pulls that appear at the tops of other chelsea boots (there is a single small pull on the inside of these boots, where it doesn't catch up your trousers.)
These have one of the best round toe shapes I've worn. The leather, which I believe is buffalo, is a rich dark brown that takes a great shine. These can be easily and comfortably worn with a suit because of the profile and the close cut sole, which does not protrude much from the leather upper. I've worn with jeans and chinos as well and they look great.
The boots are in excellent, barely worn condition.
I recognize these are something of an unknown quantity on styleforum so I've taken lots of pics and priced them low. Feel free to ask any questions, of course.
$125
Feel free to make and offer. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by what you get.
