I'm looking into getting two new pairs of shoes one a Martegani and the other a Borgioli, but have never seen these shoes upclose. I have a pathetic shoe collection that is made up of two pairs of grensons masterpieces, a pair of Harris', a pair of Mezlans, and a pair of Donald Pliners. I also have had experience with AE i was wondering what the construction of these shoes are like and how they compare to what i have or to other brands.
