Antonio Meccariello Shoes

Holy **** those are pretty...

I know, and I have always thought of all the Decurion it got to be either 2 or 3 (and probably 3), always thought 1 looked a bit front heavy, guess somehow this angle doesn't show that, making my choice complicated...

this is what he shows on Lontra though (a bit too much green for my taste), edit not green, just too much contrast

I actually also like the coffee - pearl grey mix. It’s very similar to the brown variant of Berluti “ice brown”.

Interestingly, Berluti ice brown colour also seems to have a greener (like on some of their bags) and a browner version (like on their dress shoes).

GMTO...? no that's too many shoes...

I asked Antonio about that Decurion color and he said it is greyish brown whereas Lontra is an olive brown.
Wasn't so sure if Lontra would turn out too greenish in real life for my liking. The grayish brown is a safer bet for sure.

yup this grey ish brown definitely looks good, the Lontra reminds me a bit too much Forest and Son bleached black (but brown in this case)

I was in Rome for 10 days last year.
I regret not taking the train down there for a day or two.

So eating my own word, how about GMTO in the color below...



I remember the old rule is 12 people to get maximum saving, not sure about model, but definitely oxford or whole cut

I mean anything that's not a blucher/derby. so basically anything more on the formal side
