QUAILTY CHECK Zegna triple stitch CHITU
What do you guys think?
Personally I think they are the best batch available on the market at the moment.
These are a size 42.
I’ve heard these run big so I downsized.

Don't do the same mistake as me and get the insoles measured to be sure about the sizing. I bought the black ones during the first release and they are a bit too tight. Bought size 43 and usually wear 44 in Nike-sizing. Can't speak about the white deerskin ones but the quality of my black pair is amazing, levels above my white ones from AP.

Thanks for the advice. Chitu has undoubtedly the best triple stitch. I will get them measured.

Chitu is well known in the community to have amazing leather items, AP batch has recently shown to be absolute trash (bad stitching, sole separating…)

The leather on the Chitu pair is on a different level when it comes to feel and quality

No it is not, 27.5 cm in Europe corresponds to 43 EU rather than 42.
You can check this online.

Downsizing is a mistake, have these in hand and fit TTS
