So glad to see you in your new location in Florence, and you seem very comfortable there as well !!! I love your suit, and I think you did a great review on these shoes. Hoping to keep in touch with you over the next few months as well !!!
Always thought I was not a fan of Chukkas but this review made me realize I was just not fan of the lasts used. This one is drop dead gorgeous. Lucky owner 👌
It makes more sense to have a rubber sole on this model though. These shoes are about the sensation, the emotions and the pleasure that they make you feel.
@@MisiuAcademy I know it’s stage. I’m asking because I have a experience with other brands, the lasted trees fit only the “standard” width. It was way too loose in my shoes. Then they shipped out a size larger and the fit was horrible again. I think the only real lasted trees are the hinged ones.
I don’t think the hinged ones make such a difference. In any case Paolo scafora shoes run E-EE width for the most part and my shoe trees fit well and snug
@@MisiuAcademy I mean the hinged ones fit without to much pressure/tension at the shoe. How did you think about the fit of the trees…? Is it ok, if the leather at the vamp is not really stretched (but the creases are flattened) and the spring is only compressed about 2-3mm! At my understanding it’s better this way then to much pressure and lost of the shape! It’s like a bespoke pair of shoes and trees in form of the last, when the shoes are older and a bit stretched, then there is also a bit of room without tension but the shape stays intact. I hope you understand what I want to say?

Thank you Thomas, there are two more unique Chukkas coming in the following weeks!

Thanks frank!! It’s great here! More videos coming soon!
Καλησπέρα από Ελλάδα! Great review Kostas for a beautiful pair of shoes. Keep going!
Ευχαριστώ αγαπητέ!!!

We have a converter boy! Thanks!!
@@MisiuAcademy Haha I don't think so. Most Chukkas are still too bulky for my taste. This one is the exception not the rule
Then I did a good job! There’s hope!
Absolutely stunning boots! Great job my man… keep up the great work!
Thanks for watching and approving of my creations!
Those are amazing shoes. When I win the lottery, I'm heading to Northampton then Florence, LOL.
Let me know when you are here then! We can split the profits!
Beautiful chukka. I’d feel ripped off if I didn’t get the sole with the story

Looks great minus the chizled toe.
Still one of my favorites!
I’ve got a question about the trees.
Did you know if it’s possible to get lasted trees for a wide fit shoe from Paolo Scafora?
Hi, your question is strange. Lasted shoe trees only fit the last and shape they are made for. They won’t fit any other last or other brand.
@@MisiuAcademy I know it’s stage. I’m asking because I have a experience with other brands, the lasted trees fit only the “standard” width. It was way too loose in my shoes. Then they shipped out a size larger and the fit was horrible again.

Yes I do. I think the scafora trees fit perfect. The Edward green ones on the other hand…
I am wondering how you got shoes made from russian reindeer. There is no such an option on PS web
Hi Andrew, this is not Russian reindeer, it’s the replica. we got the leather exclusively for my shop, it’s not a standard offering!
Diamonds or waffles? I think if I were paying that much money I would definitely call it diamonds.
