Not Italian, but my Allen Edmonds men's dress shoes, American made, are very well made, very soft leather, comfortable, durable and I really like them a lot; cost less than comparable Italian shoes too. Trouble is, I really like Wisconsin cheddar and I'm thinking that if I wear too many of these shoes I may deplete the cheese supply.
Spanish leather is world-class too ...reminds me of one of my favorite Bob Dylan songs Boots of Spanish leather.
