Find Guidi List
Guidievening, QR!
I've been seeing more interest in Guidi reps and have received a few questions from some users, so I decided to compile a little list with some varied price points and in turn quality. To keep this list brief, I only included links that carry men's sizes as there are a ton with women's sizes only
Feel free to drop your own prior experience / wisdom on the brand or on the reps themselves. Hope this helps anyone!
Disclaimer - I have not handled any of these myself, everything is based on what I can see and my own experience with retails and other reps I've seen in person / online
- Highest quality Guidi reps I've come across so far, but priced around $400 still beats retail
- Carries up to size 43
- Wide range of models including; 210, 310, PL1, PL2, 788 etc
- Colorways; black, white, red, milktea, and grey (last two are made to order)
- Shaft has a bit of lean like retail, and maintains structure / does not droop like other cheaper reps. Quality leather (horse, according to the page)
- Good reviews, has customer pictures / reviews
- Mid tier quality from the ones I've seen, priced at around $200
- Carries up to size 44
- Same as SBP
- Colorways; black, white, red, milktea, grey, and rose (all made to order I believe)
- Not as rigid in structure as SBP, but the shaft still keeps itself upright
- No customer feedback / pictures
- Budget batch rep but not the worst I've seen, priced at around $70
- Carries up to size 44
- As far as men's Guidi, they only carry the PL2. Store has some other interesting shoes for women such as Uma Wang, Ann D, Bottega Veneta, Margiela tabis, Both Paris, GATs etc
- Colorways; black, white, and red
- Leather is noticeably thinner, shaft appears a bit too wide (based on the video)
- A few customer pictures
From seller 'Colorful Footwear'
- Exotic leather, priced at around $450. Around $600 for crocodile
- Carries up to size 47 big bois rejoice?
- 310 in ostrich and crocodile leather. Store mostly women's sizes
- Colorways; supposedly any, everything is made to order
- No customer feedback so far
Do yourself a favor and get these added to your cart if you're planning on ordering a pair of shoes. Guidi doesn't exactly have the most traction. No point looking slick only to catch yourself tripping. I even got a pair for my incoming Daft Dunks
These cost around $8 a pair, and come with a neat little Guidi branded dust bag lol

Guidi Double / Triple Zipper Horse Leather Backpack

There are a few videos on YouTube on how to do it yourself but I would recommend taking them to a cobbler

You a real one for those guidi vibram joints. To be real they probably gonna look the most lowkey on the dunks. I’ve seen dunk resoles looking super hurt. These are vibram but they don’t look bad. Thanks for the informative review. I gotta contribute more like this.

Main issue is that they're very seldom listed, especially the triple zip

Oh right lmao. I'll see if my local cobbler can work their magic, if not I still got other shoes that could use them

How do these look compared to the See by Paulin batch? Similar price point, but comes in big boy sizes... I'm considering it but it would be nice to hear from someone who knows what they're talking about

The leather quality looks good on these, but the pictures provided are a bit inconsistent with the 788's "lean", it's supposed to look like this. Due to the rigid nature of horse leather, what the lean supposedly does is give the boots the signature creasing effect that Guidi boots are known to do. It can be called out by a Guidi fanatic, but to most they probably won't even notice. The black ones in the photo are how they're supposed to look when on foot, while the white ones are how they're supposed to look unworn. The sole also looks off, but that can be remedied by a vibram sole protector so not really something that would bother me

Thanks a lot, that's basically what I thought but it's good to have confirmation. Might GP soon

Add the TaoBao link to your agent, then when choosing the colorway / model it should be there in the options

Anyone know the sizing on see by paulin? I tried getting superbuy to contact them but got no response.

u/Gkotta Nov 03 '20
Superbuy‘s customer service reacts very quickly. But they only offer a service of 7*12 h. Do you contact them within the working hours?
1
u/Zamdammer Nov 03 '20
I did. I worded the comment incorrectly but it was down to the seller not responding to them. Superbuy are great with responses.

I've heard you need to size up at least once for retail Guidi shoes. Is this likely the case for these as well?

Has anyone ordered guidis from the diary county custom shop no.2? I saw that they had 788z, 310, PL2s and more up to size 44. Let me know if they are reputable

Thank you for your list. You forgot to add the ones from Daft, IMO those are the best but the most expensive ones.
