Guidi Cordovan Cont Boots
£873 via LN-CC
Guidi provides their take on the hiking boot, adding luxe horse leather on the upper and placing it on a Vibram sole. These shoes are carefully crafted and will break necks in person. The details include lightly rusted eyelets on the laces and a padded leather section at the back of the boot. Owning these boots will open up so many styling possibilities and I would recommend these as a great gateway drug into the Guidi brand. At over £800 these boots are by no means cheap but they are worth any penny to a discerning menswear connoisseur.
