In this morning I've found the very interesting Blog PADDOCK by Irma Vivaldi and Milo Bandini about their common PROJECT SS33:
the history of shoes, shoe design and especially the shoemakers of the Parabiago footwear district.
Parabiago has a long tradition of high quality shoes, especially for ladies, and a lot of famous
designers produce their shoes in this region like Manolo Blahnik, Christian Louboutin, Chanel,
Tom Ford and many others.

I've learned a lot of the Italian shoe history and seen many vintage shoes like this one, made by Borri:
