Hi, I recently just got a pair of santonis at a local thrift store and while I can identify that they are well made, other than that I don't know much. Any help in regards to identifying the shoe and or how valuable they are would be much appreciated.

Just a basic mid level factory made Santoni.
Nothing special.

The man in the link greatly overstates things.

Among the best ready-made shoes from Italy.

Nonsense there are much better shoes.


this shoe is to a great extent, hand-made.

Very misleading.
A true handmade shoe is entirely different.

Better be careful of sellers because they can exaggerate things.
