In collaboration with the esteemed Tuscan leather tannery and shoemakers 'Conceria di Cuoiami Guidi e Rosellini' founded in 1896.
A four-hole derby featuring goodyear welt construction, a custom anthracite shade of their signature reverse leather, leather laces & a robust commando Vibram rubber sole.
This collaboration features their signature vegetable tanned vachetta leather in a custom colorway - a deep earthy greyish brown. When new, the leather is more of a dark anthracite and with wear, they will reveal a warm brown patina.
Handmade in Tuscany, Italy.
The precious leather used to craft Morosino 1907 can present veins, scratches, imperfections or grain differences. These characteristics should not be considered as defects but the result of a vegetable tanning without varnishing which, instead of covering the leather, is aimed at exalting its natural flower. Distinctive traits such as these give the object a unique character. The skin, the colour of the leather and the peculiarities will change with use and will evolve with the owner.
The left shoe (below and shown in the images above) shows a few weeks of wear, while the right is brand new. The leather begins as a dark anthracite and with wear reveals a warmer brown patina.
