m.a+ (Maurizio Amadei)

[genevieveryoko]

I don't know, I find head to toe MA+ too severe to have to move to another country over. Better to just wear the boots, or the skirt, or the top. Perhaps pair with Marsell pumps.

I saw that the other day, and I am in love with it.

^Those bags don't appeal to me at all. Perhaps for a female, but something about the similarity to a sea shell puts it off for me. If I had my choice I'd go with the doctor's bag.

M.A.+ for women

Hi everyone - this is my first post! I would like to know if there are any ladies who own boots from MA + and Guidi and if you could tell me more about fit and quality? Any help is greatly appreciated

/\ are you by any chance from Coccodrillo shoe store in Antwerp?

[coccodrillo]

No Faust - but I buy shoes from them. I'm asking because my favorite store Pollyanna has both lines and I am wondering what people's objective wearing experiences are.

I am afraid that once I buy a pair from either brand - I won't be able to wear anything else.

What do you think of these brands and who should I start with?

I don't think there is any concern over quality with either brand. considering the footwear in general I'd say m.a+ is a bit more minimalistic in terms of construction, less stitching, no use of zippers etc. but at the same time the look is a bit more polished (if you can say that about m.a+) compared to guidi, their leather tends to be a bit more distressed and rugged feeling.

I don't think you can go wrong with either one, but when I think of womens footwear I find Guidi somehow more appealing, m.a+ boots seem a bit more masculine and might be harder to pull off.

[coccodrillo]

Thanks mike! I am fascinated by a pair of guidi's boots in black kangaroo and debating between these or the m.a.+ boots that can scrunch down

i mis-read 'Croccodillo'

thanks for giving me my fist SZ laugh for the Morning..............
only you could have misread it like that

, agreed - but i haven't seen guidi women's boots in person. Rider?

[Faust]

Guidi womens boots are just like the men's, but in smaller sizes.

Cocodrillo, I agree with Mike's assessment (as usual). Depends on what aesthetic you are going for - a bit more dishevelled - Guidi, a bit more polished - M.A.+ These days I am feeling more drawn to the latter aesthetic (but I am still hunting for old CDiem footwear), but who knows what will happen tomorrow.

i'm in the m.a.+ tank. i prefer the more polished leather finish for footwear and save my distressed pieces for the upper half. i guess it comes down to m.a.+ = ravish and guidi = ravage.

i seem to be full of sexual innuendos today, sorry

i suddenly understand why i don't like ma+ so much....i'm ravage, all the way.

but coccodrillo (love this store, btw), do you have pics of the two pairs you are considering?

Laika - I am new to forum and don't know how to post pics

The M.A.+ styles are the laced boot and long boot on Mona More the 2 options right after the aviator hats.

As far as the Guidi's - on this Murkudis site these dark purple back zip beauties!

I accept any and all helpful hints as to how to post pics
