Passo giusto - The Italian Art of Pairing the Right Shoe with the Right Look #999803

This guide was assembled from three decades of notes, workshop conversations, and small observations gathered on the streets of Milan, Florence, Naples, and Rome. It does not pretend to be a technical manual for cobblers. It is, instead, an attempt to write down something Italians rarely explain out loud, because they were never taught it in words — they absorbed it, the way one absorbs a dialect, by hearing it spoken every day at home.
Guido Valli spent twenty-eight years buying leather for a small Florentine workshop before turning to writing. He is not a designer. He is, by his own description, "a man who has spent his life looking at other men's feet, and occasionally at his own with disappointment." This book is his attempt to pass on what that looking taught him.
