The Official Artisanal "streetwear" footwear (boots, shoes, sandals) thread (Guidi, CCP, Augusta, M.

Those Augustas you wanted from Atelier are on ebay- seems like someone bought them and is trying to resell. I think he has two 10uk's.

wow thats pathetic, i had atelier offer them tom me for around 700, those augustas are just not as good as the others, also they were a 45

i don't recommend anyone buying those at 1499

Hey Ivwri (and everyone else trying to figure out augusta sizing), my boots measure approximately 12.25" long, including the turned-up toe, and 4.25 at their widest, and I believe they were marked as a UK9. However, like Eck said, that's probably not a very good way to size except very vaguely, and I would guess that they actually are a bit roomier than that because of the slightly raised toe-box.

Here's a collection of stockists for Augusta, CCP, Guidi, and MA+ that I've gathered while looking for new boots. I haven't found anything I'm ready to pull the trigger on but am looking forward to seeing more of Augusta's AW11-12 collection. The list is definitely not exhaustive.

Does anyone know of best priced places to buy Guidi (for a person in the US).

PN\P has fallen through for me in their oblivious customer service, prefer to pay an extra $100 and have a better return policy at this rate!

What was wrong with PNP if you don't mind? I've ordered from there before on multiple occasions and had nothing but fantastic service all around.

As for US stockists, you can go with Archive SF, Atelier, Maxfield, and I believe by George in Austin carries them as well. But no store in the US is going to have pricing comparable to that of Italy.

PN\P just doesnt have what i want right now, their return policy is only store credit, but other than that they've been ok. The annoying part is i asked about the guidi 998 and at no point did the guy mention he only has grey, kinda annoying that he didnt say that right away, i had to reply in email and ask specifically about the colors.

+1 about PNP- I just spoke to Luigi this morning. Always good with me.

By George has the lowest pricing in the USA from what I've seen.

The boys at PNP can special order what you want too.

yea i may look into that but its the return policy that gets me, sizing is hard and if i dont get it right then i loose 15% automatically when i resell.

@Winston, i am looking for best pricing not US stocklists, US is going to be most expensive because of import fees and etc

I wear a 45 in MMM GATs (comfortably snug) and a 45 in Augusta backzips (more roomy) but it seems like Augusta-sizing isn't very predictable.

Thanks for the information chaps.

The stockists in the US all charge around the same price (which is what I was getting at). The only one that is 'slightly' better is By George but they always carry a very limited amount. But if it's the return policy you're afraid of, then you'll definitely have to shell out a bit more dough to get a good one. (If the US stockists will even give you a full refund and not store credit)

I've custom ordered from PNP multiple times and it went extremely smooth. Guidi honestly isn't as hard to size as everyone thinks. I always buy two sizes up and I've always been happy with the fit.

gotcha

for me with guidi its the toebox that i am not sure i can handle, i like a bit more room in the front

PSA, be wary of this seller, i had atelier offer me these boots for under 1k and i did not take them due to sizing, i suspect this guy bought these boots for under 2k and is trying to re-sell them

They are horse- I used to have them. They are an older version (back from when Guidi was using RiRi)- runs TTS IMO and not like Guidi today.
