      Was that a reply to my post? But there are still retailers stocking both or am I missing something?

          are you referring to these

              These exactly! So yummy!

              Have only 1 stockist in mind for this particular version. I need one who stocks for a size 45. Any lead via pm greatly appreciated.

                  Is there any reason why this brand has three different names? Augusta / A1923 and the latest calling Adiciannoveventitre?

                    Started as Augusta and became the later because it was the year of granny's birth. Adiciannoveventitre is A1923. Your Italian could be better. I, along with many others, still call the label Augusta.

                        Regarding the double zips, are they typically (from season to season) the same sizing? Or does it change with the leathers used? I've heard sometimes it is necessary to size up one?

                            If possible, I'd try to see them in person. The scarring, treatments and options vary quite a bit. Here are my double-zips; back panel is reversed and the treatment on the upper portion of the front panels gives them a grainy texture, while the lower portion / toe box is smooth and heavily scarred on the left boot only. I love these fuckers.




                            Bonus image that shows the toe-box. One of my favorite shapes. These are comfortable but built like tanks. I can wear them all day. TTS.

                              ^ awesome write-up, buddy! Hope you are doing great!

                              I do agree, each pair is so different. Yours seem to be horse?

                              I ended up getting reversed calf with no scarring at all but with a bad-ass reversed structure and an awesome fit.

                              TTS for me as well.
