A1923 A DICIANNOVEVENTITRE Shoes

A1923 A DICIANNOVEVENTITRE (formerly Augusta) is an artisanal shoe brand based in Rome, Italy. Specializing in hand-made shoes using various old world techniques and modern treatment methods. The combination of luxury leathers such as cordovan and Llama combined with the unique treatments is what makes each piece a wearable work of art.

To be honest, I don't know what to make of these shoes. I guess if you're going for the worn-out look then this is your brand. I do see their potential when worn with distressed jeans but one can't help feeling like they have been sold a very old shoe. My boyfriend reckons the shoes look like they were picked out of the rubbish and re-novated by a homeless person..... Love them or hate them, they have quite a following. Would you buy them?

A DICIANNOVEVENTITRE Sellow Taped Horsehide Lace-up Shoes, £1,048.69
A DICIANNOVEVENTITRE Washed Horseskin Sneakers, £780.94
A DICIANNOVEVENTITRE Vintaged Calfskin Low Boots, £1,071.00
A DICIANNOVEVENTITRE Smooth Llama Lace-up Low Boots, £1,137.04

"Life is a flash of light between two eternities of darkness. Just buy the fucking shoes."

Christian Louboutin Studded Rollerboy Spike Shoes


I was in Selfridges the other day when I spotted a chap wearing these Christian Louboutin Studded Rollerboy Spike Shoes. I politely asked him if I could take a photo of them and this is the result. These babies are absolutely ace and can be worn by either sex.

I love the look of these - simple but fierce and infact the other day, a guy was attempting to go through airport security while spotting them and he was stopped. The security wanted to confiscate them as they deemed them "dangerous." What do you think? Do you like them?

Rick Owens High-top Side Pocket Cowhide Sneakers


Lenny Kravitz was looking every bit the rockstar he is when he was spotted leaving his Tribeca hotel in New York City rocking a pair of Rick Owens Rick Owens High-top Side Pocket Cowhide Sneakers. The sneakers feature a black cowhide leather upper, side zip closure, side zip pocket, and a thick white rubber sole.
Personally I am liking the idea of that extra side zip pocket on the boots as it is another place to stash your dosh/cash/chums. What do you think?
