Discovered in the U.K., the Pikolinos Hand-Sewns Equally Apropos in London Or on a Weekend in the Country.
I found these beautifully crafted Pikolinos in London at a small haberdashery near the Beretta Gallery on St. James, around the corner from the venerable Ritz on Picadilly. Returning from a visit to Ferrari in Maranello, I was invited to spend the weekend shooting clays in Yorkshire, and the lightweight Nardi Driving Mocs that I’d worn to the track just wouldn’t do.
I purchased both the Boot and Slip-On Moc models — one for the field and one for dinner. Both share the same sleek silhouette and impeccable hand-stitched seams that are Pikolinos’ hallmark. Pikolinos vegetable tans its own hides in Spain for impressive softness and comfort. Artisans then burnish each hide by hand, buffing to a gleaming luster.
Twin elastic gores make ingress a breeze; padded leather rolled collars create a luxurious, comfortable fit. Removable leather-lined insoles cushion and conform to your foot, and are anti-microbial. Natural rubber outsole for a nimble grip. Choose Nero, Mahogany or Cognac in men’s 1/2 sizes 7-13, 13.
