A lot of Maganni shoes are blake stitch. They do some goodyear welted one as well. Do make sure you are buying the right one. You can buy them from Nordstrom. A few models are currently on sale and they do free shipping.

Happy shopping!

Wa Lau buy one pair of shoes still must read so many things ... I just want nice looking shoes and dun really care how they make it.

Even that day I ordered a $800 tailor made shoes I did not even ask all these chim questions

If you don't bother about the details than just get any pair that you fancy. I apologize for the confusion.

Maganni's blake stitch uses a damm solid and thick leather insole to outsole connection tgat is much more solid than the usual goodyear gemming method. Styleforum has cutaways.

Only prob is the stitch aloft in sockliner that some people hate

That's why many folks got "carrot-chopped" without awareness. :s13:


My BIL just complained to me about his Ferrogamo shoes today. =:p
