The definitive Silvano Lattanzi thread

[ThinkDerm]



I need some help from the experts. I recently acquired these beauties. The box says cordovan nero however the leather does not feel like the horween shell that I'm used to. They don't feel quite like calf either. Are there different kinds of cordovan that Lattanzi uses? The shoes have not been worn yet, only tried on.

this is calf. beautiful shoes!

Yes I determined the seller accidentally?? switched boxes, since nero means black duhh.

Thanks unfortunately a half size too big, now I have to decide keep them or move them??? I can try with insoles and thick socks, but if I move them I want to keep them new. decisions!!!

About Lattanzi, how are they compared to Lobb, Berluti, Santoni limited, Artioli etc. RTW?
Or has Lattanzi closed its doors, because it is getting quite silent
And are the retail prices really 3.000€+ for loafers ?

I'd like to know also. Can anyone compare him to John Lobb or Atienza?

Anyone can can tell me what construction this is?
Thank you

I’d say it’s the Bentivegna-construction.

Thx,
May you kindly tell me what's the difference between benzivegna, norvegian & Goodyear? Can anyone restore bentivegna soles?
Thx

 

[VRaivio]

Sorry, I don't know more about it. Even my knowledge has limits.

 

[haloitsme]

Can you also tell why bentivegna is not whole arround and ends before the heal on both sides.
