This is a masterpiece, the Alessandro Scars Patina Leather Shoes from the Madame Olga era of Berluti, which are rarely seen nowadays. The Alessandro, Berluti's signature shoe since its founding, is the most difficult to make, and is a masterpiece that embodies the skill of the manufacturer in a single-piece leather whole-cut design, crafted from the finest Venezia leather. It fits any scene so well that you could say you don't need anything else, and we recommend it as your first Berluti leather shoe. This is a limited edition model with unique pinched moccasin stitching, commonly known as "scars," on the outer sides of the left and right shoes. "Scars" is the translation of "kizuato" (傷痕) in Japanese, and this design was inspired by the scars of warriors, created for men fighting in today's capitalist society. It also uses finer, higher-quality leather than current products. The color is a deep vermilion that changes its expression the more you use it. Berluti has many reds, but this color has a subdued, refined feel. The patina of this era, which continues to shine with the passage of time and allows you to hear the breath of the craftsman, is undoubtedly magnificent. The simple yet dignified appearance is overwhelming, and even everyday scenes like crossing your legs or going up and down stairs look artistic, giving it a unique, exceptional presence. The shoe last is the valuable Club Collection. It is one of the versatile shoe lasts that became the mainstay at the time when Berluti's bespoke shoes were developed as ready-made shoes in 1990, during the heyday of Madame Olga. It is a shoe last that is higher in the instep than the current main Demesure, and is suitable for Japanese people. I think it is a classic and elegant shape that is not too formal and has a relaxed feel, typical of France. Even now, many customers say that the Club Collection was the best shoe last at Berluti.
