My father has been manufacturing shoes for the biggest luxury brands for almost 40 years.

I convinced him to start his own thing. At 71.

He is a shoemaker and worked in a factory near Florence (Italy) his whole life.

I've been trying to convince him for years, and now I'm helping him to launch his first collection.

They are custom suede shoes, handcrafted in Italy.
I'm biased so I won't say that they look great (but they do).

They do look great! Are they sized such that I can wear proper socks? What is his upper size limit, width included. I wear a US size 13, EEEE, if available.

Yes! (half size down if you wear them without socks=you're Italian)

I added some important details, above, but not before you promptly responded. Am I still in the running? (no pun intended)

Oops, just saw it. Yes, 13 is available and it has a wide fit.

I like the orange and olive suede. I think the moccasin would make a great no socks summer shoe.

I've been rocking the light blue moccasin the whole summer

So you joined this (outerwear) forum yesterday for the sole purpose of shilling your father's new shoe offerings? Thanks for the contribution.

I genuinely thought that it could have been interesting, I didn't even post any links. If it's not appropriate I can delete it, I'm just very passionate about this project

This should probably be moved to the vendor/merchant section if you do wish to sell the shoes.
