      There are now many brands that provide patina hand painting at a fraction of Berluti's price.
      One of which is now available in Singapore is Septieme Largeur. French brand like Berluti but shoes are made in Spain.

      *note that I'm not affiliated with the shop and I do not own any of their shoes.

      • Was in Paris last year and went to their shop at saint lazarre.
        A small cosy outfit.

        There were plain white leather shoes in different styles monks etc waiting to be patined.

        Passed on them in the end coz was rushing out back to London and did not have enough time for them to complete the patine.

        Price is sg is of course a premium over those in Paris

        • Not all are able to have a color change into a different shade.

          The base color determine the possible color change.

            • yeah but can septieme largeur shoes last as long as berluti?

              the patina ártwork' at septieme largeur isnt as great as berluti.

              i own two berluti's and the service is top notch. My insoles came off, brought it back and they change it for free. Expansion of shoes also free. no qns asked.

                  • this thread needs more shoe pics.

                    let me help kick it off with 2 photos of what's covering my feet today... alden #8 shell cordovan chukka.

                    this pair is 9 months old, no maintenance done since day 1 except a quick brush after every 3-5 wears and shoe trees inserted most of the time.

                    it has been in the rain and has had ice lemon tea poured on it before... and also been bitten by a clutch pedal the first day i wore it out.





                    i will try to get a sunshine shot later to show a different shade.

                    for now... a borrowed pic of my favourite shoe out in the sun...!

                        • Wore before brands like Rock port, hush puppies, Clark. Still prefer rockport, comfy and yet reasonably priced.

                              Nice burgundy chukka. Does all Cordovan get creases like that despite using shoe tree?

                                I guess the longetivity of a pair of shoes depends on how often you use it and how you maintain them.
                                No comments on the patina work for both brands but I guess they are subjective.

                                You pay good money for a pair of Berluti so the service provided should rightfully be a given thing.

                                Anyhow, I stand to be corrected since I do not own either of the mentioned brands.

                                P.S. If I buy a pair of Berluti, I do not expect the insole to give way so easily. It would dampen my trust in their quality control.
