Marco Di Milano's Giorgio is a Chelsea boot made in full genuine ostrich leather, here in Blue Jeans, with a high-shine hand-painted and burnished finish, a red leather lining, and a leather outsole with a rubber heel.
The Giorgio takes the classic Chelsea silhouette and builds it entirely from full-quill ostrich, so the natural quill pattern runs across the whole boot and the high-shine finish brings it forward. The hand-painted and burnished finish gives the blue its depth, ribbed, elasticized side panels add comfort and a clean line, and a side zipper makes the boot easy to put on. Inside, a premium leather lining in Marco Di Milano's signature red adds a distinctive finish that shows only when the boot is on or off the foot.
Marco Di Milano is a family-owned luxury footwear house based in León, Mexico, with nearly 43 years of experience in exotic leathers, using Italian-tanned skins and in-house hand-painted finishes. The Giorgio suits formal and refined casual looks alike, with a leather outsole and rubber heel built for traction and regular wear.
FAQs
Q: Does the Marco Di Milano Giorgio run true to size?
A: Yes. Marco Di Milano's Size & Fit Guide lists the Giorgio under its regular (non-Western) boots as true to U.S. sizing, so order your regular size.
Q: What is full-quill ostrich?
A: Full-quill ostrich is leather with the raised, evenly spaced quill pattern of the ostrich hide running across the whole boot rather than as an accent. Quill placement varies slightly from pair to pair, so no two pairs look exactly alike.
Q: How do I care for ostrich leather boots?
A: Clean and condition ostrich only with products made for exotic skins, keep it out of prolonged sun and away from water, and store the boots with cedar boot shapers or shoe trees between wears so they hold their shape.
Q: How do I put on the Giorgio?
A: The Giorgio has ribbed, elasticized side panels and a side zipper, which Marco Di Milano describes as giving easy access. It has no laces.
Q: Does the Giorgio need a break-in period?
A: Exotic-skin boots with a leather lining and leather outsole typically soften over the first several wears rather than needing an extended break-in, so expect the fit to relax slightly as the leather adjusts to your foot.
Q: What is the sole made of, and how durable is it?
A: The Giorgio has a leather outsole with a rubber heel for traction. A leather sole offers a classic feel and is generally best suited to dry conditions.
Q: What should I wear the Giorgio with?
A: Marco Di Milano positions the Giorgio for formal and refined casual looks, so it pairs well with tailored trousers, dark denim, or a suit when the boot should be the statement.
Q: Who makes the Marco Di Milano Giorgio?
A: Marco Di Milano is a family-owned luxury footwear brand based in León, Mexico, with nearly 43 years of experience in exotic leathers. The product page describes the Giorgio as handcrafted but does not state where this particular boot is constructed.
