Vittorio Ricci Shoes - Etsy。For your consideration a very vintage pair of handsome Vittorio Ricci men’s Oxfords. Pre-owned but in good condition. The former owner used innersoles and there is some residue inside from the adhesive. Cleats have been added to the Rover soles and they should either be removed or replaced. But what’s special about these shoes is the tongue. Instead of being one “hard” piece of leather, it’s made of soft pleated kid which is a wonderful and unusual detail. Vittorio Ricci boots are hand crafted in Italy using a time honored ¾ Goodyear welt construction from toe to heel. Close your eyes and maybe you can envision artisan craftsman hammering wood pegs under the arch giving pre-soaked leather outsoles the unique sculpted look and feel of enduring quality and support. Arch supports are re-enforced with iron shanks on top of which a layer of genuine cork plus a full 4mm of high-rebound shock absorbing foam is added to insure years of enduring comfort and wearability.
