I must say, I am not crazy about the contrasting laces. The shape is great though, especially the boots.

They are absolutely stunning - I saw a pair in the flesh last week (being rocked with aplomb by Snafu) and was amazed by the texture, the shape, the contrasts - everything about it was masterful.
I'd be interested to know how the collaboration came about and whether Altieri and Zero plan to work together again. On this evidence they should.Last edited by docus; 05-30-2011, 08:55 AM.

However I really can't compare not having handled the Layers version - can anyone fill in the gap on if there is a difference in leather types?

mine (from Layers) are also reverse. I think its both the pictures making them appear different as well as probably varying leather textures."AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION.

I definitely want a pair of these........... probably the only shoes of late i'm interested in buying
hopefully they will be around in my size when i'm ready to buy.
the only thing I dislike about them is the laces..............I just think the original (thicker?) Carpe laces were better...............but for me it isn't a big deal. hopefully I'll get a chance to handle them in person and see how they feel“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”

I've actually been wearing mine without the laces for the past few days, they fit like a glove so none are actually needed.
I might put in black/dark ones later. visually the red ones are pretty cool, but in terms of wearing them in a daily outfit, a bit too quirky for me."AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION.

Lowrey-
They come with standard black laces too?
I recently purchased the W3 tall boot and am anxiously awaiting their arrival, so sometime tomorrow hopefully. I thought I was getting an extra blue set of laces but, I'd be happy with a black or dark set.

My ankles and derbies have quickly become my favorite pairs of footwear that I own (surpassing my O.G. carpes).
I personally love the red laces that contrast the brownish grey derbies.
I did cut the laces to size though as couldn't be bothered to do the wrap around and because it detracted from the elegance that these shoes have in spades otherwise.
EDIT: as per pic below, a few pairs of horse and lamb are also out there. Would love to see pics...Last edited by doldrums; 05-31-2011, 01:46 PM.
