Guidi, a heritage Italian leather label launched two new sandals in earthy colorways of brown or khaki green. The shoes are crafted from leather materials and sit on top of a ridged sole unit to offer function. The sandals are also great for indoor purposes as well, made from premium materials.

The shoes are crafted carefully by the brand's own artisanal leathersmiths. They draw fine materials that are then tanned locally at its Italian countryside. The khaki green sandals are thick and sit on a food bed centered around comfort with wide straps to secure the foot. The brown sandal has a rounded look and boasts a slingback buckle that closes around the heel offering additional support.
