okay figured. thank you very much!

now to find some in size 45 😩

edit: another question: is last conspiracy looked down upon in the artisan boot world?

Does it work for you? Who cares about the label? If it's well made and looks nice, it wouldn't matter in my opinion. Enjoy what you wear.

What's the feedback on the quality? Doesn't last?

I think the leather come from the same tannery that makes guidi boots, but I think it was just a matter of it also possibly being a lower quality leather?

So before I go full in on a guidi I wanted to know about instep height details. My insteps are on the flat lower end and a lot of traditional lasts tend to have pretty generous volume (carmina rain, Tlb, etc). I knocked out PL2 cause from my experience with high arch work boots they are a no go for my arches. I’m most interested in the 310 for the low arch front zip, was just curious about guidi instep. Thanks

My new Guidi doesn't fit 😭 so I put them on eBay. Hope this is ok to put here.

Haha I just asked you on the bay about these. It makes me apprehensive to buy as my feet are sorta wide
