I always had a dream about a simple, pure pair, which don’t have anything special, only a simple black derby, no fancy chisel toe, pointy shape. This is a shoe, what kids would draw, if they are asked to do so.

Interesting welt on this, the way it rolls up over the upper – what do you call that technique Marcell?

In Italy this costruction is called Bentivegna.
I want to make those! All that antiqued polished leather is nice (I mean really really nice), but not something I’d ever wear. I’d need to become a tailor as well to make myself a suit and coat and pants to go with it 🙂 I just want to make shoes for myself. A pair a year, which is probably what it will take with the kids and day job, plus a couple years to make the first wearable pair at all 🙂
