Ghirlandina v3 Low Top Leather Sneakers - Anticato Tan, White Sole - Size 48
The third release of our classic Italian sneakers features slightly less padding and a slicker, cleaner look with less (and smaller) visible branding.
Ideated on a blistering summer night in Modena, it was only fitting to name our sneaker after the beautiful Torre della Ghirlandina. Hand stitched in Mirandola, Italy using an incredibly soft yet durable Italian calfskin, this minimalist pair stays true to our design philosophy and is simple, classic and timeless.
This beautiful special edition of our Ghirlandina involves a special process where the leather is hand stained to create a finish known as 'anticato'. Each pair requires an extra 105 mins (1 hr 45 mins) of meticulous coloring to produce this effect to the patina. Hand stitched in Mirandola, Italy using an incredibly soft yet durable Italian calfskin, this minimalist pair stays true to our design philosophy and is simple, classic and timeless.
As this style is no longer part of our core collection, the remaining units have been relocated to our Discontinued, Samples, and One-Offs offering. In the event there is a discrepancy in the version cited for this product, we will refund any difference that would be owed.

Handcrafted in Italy
12世紀、エミリア=ロマーニャの職人たちが靴作りに特化したギルド、compagnie delle artiを設立しました。品質と伝統を基盤とする私たちは、イタリアに着いてまもなく、ベルルッティ(フェラーラ)、サントーニ、ペロン&ペロン(ボローニャ)、テストーニ(モデナ)、エンツォボナフェなどのブランドを支える職人と出会いました。そしてようやくたどり着いたモデナの小さな工房では、父と息子が手を組み、私たちがこれまでに見たことのないほどの上質な靴を作っていました。
