When it comes to the color rubbing process, Berluti believes that no brand dares to recognize the first. Berluti is the leader of French leather shoes, the world's leading luxury magazine Robb Report's 2011 Best Of The Best Luxury Shoes, has been in business for four generations, and is now at the helm of Olga Berluti is the only female custom shoe maker in the world. Founded in 1895, Berluti was in the limelight of the late 19th century gentlemen, from business elites and movie stars to celebrities such as the Duke of Windsor.
Berluti's world-renowned Venezia leather and patine dyeing process has made Berluti stand out in the world of uniform, monotonous leather shoes and become the master of the polishing process. Berluti's Venezia leather is very unique, the leather is composed of natural and mineral tanned leather, unique color and transparency, is the hallmark of the Berluti brand, through its patented patine dyeing process to make Venezia leather more perfect, red, blue, green and other sixteen exotic colors to choose from, each leather is like a deep oil painting, fantastical and full of poetry.
In 2003, Berluti created the tattoo technique, which made the Venezia leather more unique, and the tattoo can be selected or designed, which makes Berluti more high-profile and unique, "seducing" many avant-garde and trendy men, it can be said that if there is no pair of Berluti in vain. In addition to the dyeing process, it is worth mentioning that starting from the founder Alessandro Berluti, Berluti has always emphasized the matching of the shoe shape and the foot, whether it is a custom or finished shoe, the important part of the arch of the sole of each pair of shoes is hammered into small pieces, the pursuit of ultimate comfort, this is the soul of Berluti.
Berluti has two types of bespoke business: bespoke and special order. Berluti's Bespoke business, like other top custom brands, is very particular about the selection of skins, mainly cowhide, but also some precious crocodile skin, kangaroo skin, python skin, etc. As long as you can hold on to all kinds of weird colors, Venezia leather with a French flair is sure to make you stand out from the crowd. Bespoke shoes are the most expensive and special shoes in the world based on Berluti's handmade Baidao and original Venezia leather, with custom prices starting at 250,000 yuan. The special order business is to transform the finished shoes, such as the leather color, soles, etc., with a price starting at 60,000 yuan. However, Berluti is also not customizable, and its counter only offers 1-2 customization opportunities per year, so you have to make an appointment in advance if you want to customize.
Among Berluti's most iconic shoes are the Andy Warhol loafers, as well as the Alessandro Oxfords, which were based on the whole cut lace-up shoe designed by Alessandro in 1895 and re-innovated by the second generation of Torello. The Demesures-venezia leather, Galet-venezia leather, Capri-venezia leather, and other styles are permanent classics in the Alessandro collection, and the leather shoes bear the name of the founder, Alessandro Berluti.
All three are made of Venezia leather in a very stylish color, with a simple whole cut upper with no stitching or stitching throughout, and a high degree of formality, making them ideal for business occasions. With a shallow and wide crong and a wide body, it is ideal for men with wide feet, but the most suitable foot shape is a Greek foot with a standard arch.
Unfortunately, the sole process is actually Blake, which is rarely stitched by international brands, and the leather shoes brought by this process have a shorter lifespan and are significantly less comfortable than manual sewing along the edges, which makes people feel that the price is inflated. Currently, Berluti has boutiques in Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu and other places.
