        i appreciate grandma's attempt at thinking outside of his goddamned box for once. but, fuck, hate to agree with joey here.

        I know you disagree, but I've been saying this about 70% of grandMA's creations.

          are you just trying to say i told you so ? :)

          i don't mind them, im always biased towards ma. but i would prefer it without the centre seam if that was possible uncertain if that shape coauld be done or made using a non leather? i like the fact he is using that fabric it looks similar or the same as i have seen being used on aviators before.
          the archives current version of this boot with straps is really really perfect i prefer it to this but i think the idea of a slip on is nice just this is not executed to the best of what it could be.

            Well, I guess back then he had Altieri to filter off the failed pieces?

              its true when he gets it right, you have to give him merit despite the price tags

                that just sounds dismissive
                maltieris name graces the best bits from the early days anyway
                the original coat patterns , the oft vaunted leather shirts are in no way down to amadei
                and his (amadei) later free expression of the leather daddy look , the leather coats and assorted longer leather coats are questionable keepers
                but give him credit , he occasionally hits the red dot.
                of late his nepotistic modelling choices just do him no favors

                  without the center seam (or perhaps no seam on the front) and the slit sides those boots would be imo quite nice. Or maybe if the leather was was just poking out of the top.. That would be nice

                      ha pip do you know this for a fact ? i do think if his bits were photographed properly if amadei had some input into this it could change many peoples opinions on his stuff. Im sure he would want a certain way for his work to be photographed, focusing on the areas of the garment which set his work apart from others. The shop blog photos don't do his stuff justice when you own his stuff there are textures and details that are just hard to capture in a quick snap.

                      But then again maybe he doesnt photograph or use a specific model because he wants people to actually make up their mind on the garments in person.

                      On another note 70/30 ratio is off.

                        i agree entirely. also, in fabric this boot is not possible without centre seam. if honesty of construction counts outside of architecture, this seam it to be celebrated

                        concur with snafu's 70/30 rebuttal some pieces may underwhelm but few if any are outright fails.

                            My observations are based on careful mathematical calculations from years of stock physically examined at Atelier (and they have a chockful) - what are your basis?
