You swallowed the mystique that they're pitching. Nothing wrong with that, but just so long as you know that you aren't just buying their product for the inherent value of their product.

Although I wouldn't buy Berluti but I have to admit I like looking at them, the finishes are extraordinary, some of the lasts can stand up to 8000, 888, or U. Only if they are better contructed.

The photo doesn't do it justice. What makes Berluti so unique is their 'patina' and coloring. That pair actually has a 'glow' and the Siena Brown/ Black combo is quite beautiful.

You did not get a bespoke pair made by Berluti.
