Big part of the huge price is simply the demand for Guidi leather. Guidi is a tannery first and foremost, they sell to Prada, Rick Owens, Maison Margiela and a lot of "avantgarde" and "darkwear" brands such as CCP, Layer0 etc. Boots from these brands start around 1000 and go up really quickly. I would say that Guidi caters mostly to the customers of the above mentioned brands, rather than the typical workwear enthusiast. This, combined with the fact that their operation is not huge, they have to command such high prices just so they dont cannibalize their tanning business.

Another thing that adds (subjective) value to the boots from this brand (and their more fashion oriented sister brand Guidi) is their piece dyeing method. They dye the whole boots in a vat (as opposed to using already dyed materials and then constructing the boot). It makes the color more uniform, because the sole, upper, laces and everything is dyed by the same dye at the same moment. But at the same time, every part of the leather absorbs the dye differently, so this adds more depth to the color and texture. Also, this method slightly distressed the boots and the finished product looks beautiful in my opinion. Unfortunately, the boots they sent you are the undyed version. I would have loved to see the way piece dyeing makes the insides look.

This is the first boot I have seen you cut in half that made me wish you hadn't cut it in half. These may be the most beautiful boots I have ever seen. This is a luxury boot. A luxury Dunhill wallet can cost $600. So, is this overpriced? Not for the market it is selling into - the luxury goods market. Compared to $600 wallets, this is a steal at $1300!! It's not my market segment, but I can appreciate the quality even if I cannot afford it.

These boots are definitely more deserving of their price than some Jordans and Yeezys sneakers or Balenciaga boots that go several times or even ten times this price. Or so many cowboy boots with big prices and regular materials. At least these boots are hand made from premium materials. Of course that from a durability and quality standpoint these boots are not 2 times better than a Pacific western boot at 700 dollars. But those boots are also not 2 times better that many 350 dollars boot.

In terms of material quality and all-leather construction, PNW brands like Nicks, Whites, and Canada West make all-leather construction boots. Most of their boots are geared towards the heavy-duty blue collar workers, but they make lifestyle versions too. If you want something sleeker, Iron Boots(the boots featured in the video) makes some great quality stuff.

You can't compare a mass-market boot with huge production efficiencies of scale with an Italian artisan-type family-run small legacy business. Margins can be lower when you sell more, but for them they've come up with a price at which they can offer their boot to the market. If you don't care about that, then there are plenty of cheaper options! I'm glad they exist…

Beautiful boots, I'm glad that the craft still lives in Europe too. The price is steep but there are things to consider. It's made in Italy and cost of production is on the USA+ level, not Chinese/Mexican etc. There are also freights and import taxes between EU and US. My pair of Nick's 8 inch in veg-tan cost me 1058 dollars including freight and taxes when crossing the Atlantic.

Plus I had to have JK flatten the arch. Even with that and a month of break in the arch's still didn't drop enough and the toes on my right foot were going numb. I took a sander to the wedge sole under the arch and they finally dropped enough. That boot with the steel shank would never break in enough to be comfortable for me. So will they adapt to your feet? Sure unless you have f'd up feet that are odd sizes. My point is for this price they could/should do some fitting. If not you can buy good quality boots far cheaper.

One of the main reasons that veg tanned leather is used for boot linings and foot bed is that chrome tanned leather can cause irritation or allergic reaction on the skin for some people. So, for the interior components they use veg tan. Conversely, chrome tanned leather is more water resistant and easier to dye with a bigger range of colours so it is used more for the outside of items.

But I do think that there is The notion of excellence… And trying to buy the most beautifully executed version of a pair of shoes, or a jacket or a sweater or automobile, or whatever. And generally those things cost a lot of money. They do become status symbols. Most people are not going to be able to experience them. And that’s the way life is. I think that life does show us that it is better to buy fewer pieces of higher quality… Because high quality items tend to last longer, look better, and wear better. Now… How to reconcile that with the fact that there are people who are starving every night? People with no roof over their head… Or the roof is a tent or corrugated metal? I don’t know.

If i was rich I’d pay $1,300 for this. Sure maybe it’s like 20-25ish percent more than it should be, but this quality, especially considering they are producing only a fraction of the “big guys” are, as far as quantity goes. I wish. This is an awesome boot, and probably will last years, if not generations

And to answer your question “how much should this be priced at?” I’d say 12-13……. They are an up an coming company, and to have this quality… and hoping they are treating their employees right….. that’s probably the cost, if not more. Put this in perspective, I was in San Jose California like 2 days ago fixing my phone. Went to the “Golden Goose” store…….. and just WTF!?!? They wanted OVER $1,950 for a pair of shoes that literally looked like Vans that a skater had worn for a year…. Not exaggerating at all either. It’s just ridiculous

For $1300 I would like a more dressy and “finished” looking boot. I mean these look like deluxe Timberlands. I know they don’t exactly look like that, but the feeling here is one of plainness, rather than simple elegance.

I think it's a good looking boot. The high part of the boot reminds me of my Thorogood Tomahawks.

Just buy Corcoran Jump Boots. Practically the same thing. I remember when they were 80 dollars when I was young and in the Army, I imagine with inflation there probably 350 by now but there damn good boots

That is a beautiful boot to be sure. I'll never afford a boot like that in my life, but people are willing to pay for exclusivity.

If you don't have to preorder and wait like 6 months, If they stock every sizes available all time, If they comparable to those hand made , extra long wait ,etc..boot, may be that could justify 1300

The quality of the leather, construction, and design makes this product stand out. You know when you buy a guidi boot that it will live longer than you. If you wear one boot for everyday for the rest of your life, you want it to be this good with this much attention to detail. I do not think that you can call art overpriced, and there are products that blend functionality with art. Sure you might not cut the grass or go to your construction job in these, but you wouldn’t spend that much on a pair that you know is going to get thrashed.
