Maybe I'm the last one to find out about these, I don't know, but they sure
are cool. I used to import Marresi 24 years ago but they ran their course
and I haven't seen them for awhile. I just became aware of a couple of retro
models they are making - L'Eroica (clever name, eh?) and Storica (Historic).
The first is a racing shoe with a Look pattern plastic sole, but with leather
uppers and laces. The second is a touring shoe with leather uppers and
leather sole, and a heel. Very cool looking, and in brown or maroon color.
Check them out at http://www.calzaturemarresi.com/
And if you have not seen my pics of L'Eroica and touring in Tuscany, make yourself some Pizza Margherita, open a Birra Moretti, and enjoy:
