I have some dark brown "Executives" by Antica Cuoieria that are made in this fashion. So far, I've only worn them with jeans. The lower sole is so conspicuous and "squared off" that I haven't found a suit that I feel comfortable wearing them with. I thought that my slim cut italian made khaki suit might look nice but the narrow trouser with this style of shoe combined to make my feet appear even larger than my size 12s usually do! As my 9 year old daughter said "that's not cute"! LOL, kids....

You can't like those boots, no stitching in a contrasting colour drawing attention to itself, and a narrowly cut sole.

Far too subdued for your tastes.

The company is based in the Veneto, near Bassano, where the Grappa comes from.

Weddings and funerals in mountaineering boots???

"Curiouser and curiouser!" Cried Alice (she was so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English).
