I will be in Florence, Rome, and Venice in a couple of weeks. Any pointers on where I can find Santoni there? Any help would be highly appreciated.

I'm pretty well versed with Santoni in the US market, I'm always curious to see what styles I can find whenever I'm in Europe.

Dug up some older pictures.

Here is a Goodyear welted pair I got from Barcelona a couple years ago:

Got them from Santa Eulalia, here was the rest of the selection. I wish I would have gotten the double monk also:

I don't have have a specific suggestion, but Santoni is carried in the majority of nice men's stores in Europe. You should come across a lot more of their higher end models that are hard to find in the States.

Rome has tons of santoni all over the shopping district and a headquarters store.

ThinkDerm,

I love those boots! Reminds me of one of my all time favorites, the Quirion which they've recently made with lighter weight sole.

My second pair recently arrived. Another E-bay purchase, but unlike my first pair these aren't FAMs, but something from their mid-tier selection, and have (gasp!) rubber soles. But hey, they were just over $200, they look great and are unbelievably comfortable right out of the box:

Nice, the Elliston. Great shoe to knock around in, especially city walking.

Awesome. Nothing I could pull of, but I hope you do!
I got a brothers of these but in black. Do you have a carton box? Could you PM a pic of the sticker? I've wasted mine and forgot to write down the name of the boots.
Wow. Those are beautiful! Love the soles and how toasty those shoes will keep your feet in the winter...
Ugh, I've been trying to find these for months...
