  • Guidi's iconic back-zip boot. The 988 is built with the tannery's vegetable-tanned reverse horse leather. Refined using century-old techniques, the leather showcases the reverse side of the hide, offering a soft-supple feel and nappy texture. Handcrafted in Italy, the 988 features an upper cut from a single piece of leather, finished with a heavy-duty YKK Excella back zipper. Each pair is piece-dyed post-construction, resulting in a homogeneous color, softened leather, and textured outsole. The shoes feature a fully resoleable Goodyear welt, anchoring the uppers to traditional leather soles. Packaging includes a cloth carry bag and separate Vibram rubber half soles.
