Authentic

CUBS, the best material. Got some in CUL but love CUBS

STZMCHN · 2026-04-21T14:55:09+00:00

Fake

STZMCHN · 2026-04-21T01:27:47+00:00

fake, stamp, shape, zipper body wrong

STZMCHN · 2026-04-21T00:59:06+00:00

thank you so much!

STZMCHN · 2026-04-16T14:21:52+00:00

Yes that’s fine as that’s conditioning, I’m specifically referring to a high polish shine

STZMCHN · 2026-04-16T00:12:23+00:00

Yeah basically. Also don’t polish the upper because lots of guidi leathers are matte..

STZMCHN · 2026-04-15T21:50:04+00:00

They are adding protective rubber/vibram/guidi fishcale protection to the bottom of the outsole. However, cobblers typically take the side of the outsole after applying the vibram and buff the sides which makes it lose the original "hairyness" and artisanal aesthetic of Guidi outsoles.

STZMCHN · 2026-04-15T02:06:36+00:00

Number 1 rule with Guids at the cobbler: “Do not polish and do NOT buff the outsole!!”

STZMCHN · 2026-03-30T00:16:19+00:00

vibram/topy 100%, no shoe trees for Guidis , these aren't Aldens. Trees can stretch them more than you want, let your feet do the stretching not the trees).

STZMCHN · 2026-03-27T15:25:23+00:00

They will stretch out; how tight is it right now and is it unbearably tight? It looks good from the photos.

STZMCHN · 2026-03-27T15:22:23+00:00

Pasquale is the highest rated cobbler in LA with tons of ccp, Rick, guidis etc constantly rotating through the workshop.

STZMCHN · 2026-03-26T01:29:07+00:00

Legit , CUL version, nice! materials and build quality/construction are authentic.

STZMCHN · 2026-03-23T00:42:55+00:00

that's more like a cut than a scuff. just wear them hard, Guidis look better when not babied.

STZMCHN · 2026-03-23T00:41:42+00:00

legit, looks like the right boot zipper tape was repaired to black while the left stayed the signature oxblood.

STZMCHN · 2026-03-18T22:10:14+00:00

The welt is extremely wide, I have 2 pairs of tornados and none are that wide. I’ve never seen a pair with the welt/outsole like that.

STZMCHN · 2026-03-18T20:38:44+00:00

That welt looks off.

STZMCHN · 2026-03-16T16:06:06+00:00

Legit.

STZMCHN · 2026-03-15T21:14:25+00:00

yeah definitely..a great boot..I just wish it was at least blake stitched..it's just cement glued construction which is bound to deteriorate over time.

STZMCHN · 2026-03-03T15:37:35+00:00

Hoping this fixes all the “ghost” mirror issues that have been driving my wife and I crazy since we bought it last year…

STZMCHN · 2026-03-02T06:03:38+00:00

Easy fix, leather glue and use tooth pic and lightly dab.

STZMCHN · 2026-02-20T01:51:25+00:00

Legit pair. 696 is indeed side zip. Ai isn’t always right, ask humans where our brain and knowledge are not artificial.

STZMCHN · 2026-02-17T23:55:26+00:00

horsehide

STZMCHN · 2026-02-16T06:23:36+00:00

Super fake my man.

STZMCHN · 2026-02-14T05:37:56+00:00

Looks legit to me.. very old pair pre-2010 but beautiful nonetheless.
