The White High Top pays homage to the clean leather court shoes of the 1970's. We've retained the iconic style but upgraded all of the materials. High quality Italian leather, a Margom sole and precision construction come together to create the perfect minimalist sneaker.
These Gustin high tops are made out of Nappa leather from one of the finest tanneries in Fucecchio, Italy. Consider this high top the ultimate lifestyle sneaker. It will pick up every moment of your life from the indigo dye in your denim to the curb you don’t quite clear. That’s actually the beauty of them. All this wear just makes them yours. We use only the highest graded Nappa available, which means these shoes will start beautifully and hold up even better. The pores on the leather are partially closed in a heat pressing process, giving the skin slightly more breathability. The grain is tight giving the shoe a super soft and smooth feel. The color is pure white and a touch of shine livens it up. The leather weight is slightly heavier than on our black high to give the shoe a bit more structure and heft. A white calfskin lining maintains the pure look of the shoe while a white suede strip lines the heel. Stitching is pure white as is the Margom sole.
The Gustin high top pays homage to the now classic sneakers we grew up wearing. Take one look at the shape of our high top and you know it captures everything perfectly — from the extremely low profile toe box, to the ultra clean stitch lines, to the eye catching blue suede heel strip. Beauty is in the small details such as the way top of the ankle gently swoops up at the back, the tight arc of the stitching on the heel counter, the perfect diameter of the eyelets. Our styling truly captures what we loved about our old sneakers, now done the right way.
Our sneakers are constructed by hand in the Tuscany region of Italy by a group of craftsmen who have been making shoes since 1901. They have perfected their craft to the point where the industry's biggest and best names, including Lanvin, use them for production. All leather is die cut one hide at a time. Single needle stitching is used to construct the uppers. Custom lasting creates the unique Gustin shape. An Italian-made Margom rubber sole is cemented internally and reinforced with 360° stitching to the upper. A calfskin-lined removable footbed is stamped with the Gustin logo. These are time honored techniques taken to the highest level.
Sneakers made in Italy to our quality level, that finally get the styling right and that use only the highest quality materials carry incredibly high price points. The Gustin model allows us to offer you a radically better value.
Gustin sneakers follow European sizing and run slightly larger than some US sizes. If you typically wear a US 9 in dress shoes or boots, we recommend ordering a US 9 in these as well. If you usually wear a half-size, we would recommend you order down to the nearest whole size. If you have tried on other Margom soled sneakers, you should order the same size.
