TANINO
Tanino has been Buttero's most-worn sneaker since 2013, its shape unchanged: raw-cut edges, two stitch points at the toe, brass eyelets — nothing added, nothing missing.
The upper is vegetable-tanned calf leather in black; the tanning leaves the grain uneven on purpose, so no two hides read quite the same, and the colour deepens with every season worn. Leather laces and brass eyelets complete the closure, with a spare pair of laces included. A genuine-rubber sole runs underfoot, comfortable from first wear. Made in Italy.
It runs wide — most people take two sizes down from their usual sportswear size.
Made by Hand, Finished by Time
It starts as a hide chosen a few kilometres from our door and passes through many hands before it reaches yours. Nothing outsourced, nothing rushed.
The rest: the patina, the marks, the character, is up to you.
