used, good condition, made in Italy Gustin's material/color description: These Gustin high tops are made from Chromexcel color #8 from the Horween Leather Company in Chicago, IL. Horween has been in the leather game since 1905, and has developed some of the most durable and beautiful leathers for sale today (from Shell Cordovan to the leather used for NFL footballs). You can only begin to see the sheer beauty of this leather from the images we’ve shown you. That special Horween luster, the depth of shade, the hues that you simply don't see from other tanneries. We can safely say these CXL #8 shoes are even richer in person than any image can convey. The now famous #8 color presents the most rich, deep burgundy color. Gustin's sizing recommendation: 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.
