You should consider Silvano Lattanzi...

you are in Italy; aren't Lattanzi cheaper there?



I think Lattanzi is better than both of them. Of course, we are only talking about RTW...

I much prefer John Lobb bespoke shoes over Lattanzi bespoke. (seen in photos.)

Yes please speak about RTW i'm not ready yet for a bespoke I have totally no idea how much is a Lattanzi RTW I believe as JLs prices? Aren't my pics all RTW ? The JL Norway is discontinued RTW or bespoke? Sorry too many questions So I need to travel around Italy for a Lattanzi Luigi

Where are you located in Italy?

Roma, Milano, Napoli, they all have Lattanzi.

Yes, all of your pictures are RTW. JL Norway is RTW.

I do know the bespoke Lattanzi are about 3000 Euro. Not too sure about RTW, though.

Another RTW makers you should consider are: Peron & Peron (Bologna, Italy). Paolo Scafora (Napoli, Italy).

Both do 100% Handmade shoes.

So thats sound great for me I leave an hour driving from Naples
Hopefully they will have sale
Napoli is the first Italian city starting with sales
I was checking on the Lattanzi's website love few of them
But it doesn't direct me in to shops in Naples

of the three i do prefer santoni FAM version of the FRITZ
(there is an actual shoe called the Fritz, it is not to the Nordstrom 950 series FAM standards and have a total different look, feel, AND smell to them. less substantial)
the actual FAM model does not have a name but a number like 7258 or something like that.
i prefer the actual FAM over the JLs, not that the JLs are bad; they are exellent, but they are of a english look.
the 7258? is actually very decadent and very italianate and will attract attention.
i have had many people talking to me not knowingly glance at my feet every few seconds when i wear them.

I am Italian American, with the love of Italian clothing and shoes.

I suggest you get Paolo Scafora, if you are going to Napoli.

Some Photos of Paolo Scafora shoes...
