    Some photos of the problem:

    Grain on inner right boot:


    More detail:


    The worst problem area:


    Left inner boot, also cracking but not as bad:


    No other area has any visible grain and the leather there is in perfect shape. Its just these two panels (mainly the right) that have issues.

      Looks like alcohol spilled on those areas... That's the fastest way those distressed leather would get cracks.

        Never had anything other than water from the rain dropped on them. Even when new the cracks in the grain were really deep, but until I took a closer look today I didn't realize they were actually splitting.

          I have no advice for you other than to say they continue to look great.

                hmmm, not too sure neither about the wrists nor about the collar or the pockets. The skins must be fantastic, but the designs are still...guido.

                    Quick update on my situation. I sent a message to Guidi via their website and received a response this morning. They kindly offered to repair or replace the boots of I ship them back to them. Couldn't be more pleased with their customer service, and as a result I will be picking up another pair in black to wear while mine are away.

                      At first sight, I thought that it was an Incarnation leather jacket...
                      First impression says it all.

                        Nice to hear, that sort of service is what one would hope for in such a situation. but great when it does occur.

                          Well played, the rest would even be okay without those nasty band jacket sleeve cuffs. what I love most above all else is the simplicity in the designs of the bags and shoes so quite surprised to see this ...
                          Does Alessia not have something to do with the jackets ? she normally has such great taste

                              All that jacket needs is the gold D&G placket on the back of the neck.

                                Ah! makes total sense , Layer O designs always straddle that fine line between Sick as fuck & Oh no too much!
