Guidi
Pescia, 1896
A Tuscan tannery turned bootmaker: horse leather, assembled undyed, then drummed in dye as a finished boot.
Guidi is a family tannery in Pescia, in Tuscany, working since 1896. The boots are assembled from undyed horse leather, then dyed as finished shoes in drums, so every seam takes the colour its own way.
The leather creases fast and keeps the creases. Two pairs never age alike.
