The Legendary Comfort and Longevity of Italian Leather Shoes

Many people believe that Italian leather shoes are the epitome of quality footwear. The design, price and overall value of Italian shoes are the reason why so many people consider them to be the most comfortable dress shoes for men and women.

Naturally, this inherent belief is reflected on the price tag; their price of admission is significantly higher than those made in other countries such as England, France and so on. Italian leather shoes have achieved greatness, portrayed by the various premium designer brands famous the world over.

In reality, the quality of American or English shoes is somewhat equal to the qualities of leather footwear being produced in Italy. The reason for the disparity in price and their perceived value is due to Italy’s long history of shoemaking. This ‘edge’ is the real reason for Italy’s highly reputable footwear. Due to its heritage, Italy is capable of producing long lasting, beautiful, comfortable and elegant leather shoes.

The longevity of Italian leather footwear is legendary. It is said that that a pair of Italian leather shoes can outlive its original wearer and often passed down to his children and grandchildren. Such is a testament to the reputation and fame of Italy’s leather footwear.

Another feature of which they are famous for is the fact that Italian leather footwear are stretchable and highly adjustable. If for some reason the shoe doesn’t fit, a skilled shoe maker can easily adjust it to accommodate the contours of your feet.    

This article isn’t really aimed at promoting Italian leather shoes, it merely describes the reason behind Italy’s affinity to producing high quality leather shoes for men and women. Of course, this is not to say that purchasing a pair of Italian leather shoes is un recommended, but it is undeniable that the price tag for a high quality pair of Italian dress shoes is borderline ridiculous in my opinion. You can acquire comfortable and durable leather shoes from countries such as the US or Germany for the fraction of the price.
