June 5, 2014: The iconic Tod’s Gommino gets a summer makeover for 2014. In patent leather with bright stripes in either red and white, blue and white or turquoise and white, the new model is soft, lightweight, elegant and fun.
It features a gold chain detail, and, in addition, the internal sole displays a distinctive message that links each colour treatment to a favourite Mediterranean resort. Thus, the blue and white style gives an ode to Porto Cervo, the red and white style to St. Tropez and the turquoise and white style to Capri.
It takes over 100 steps to build a Gommino, and, depending on the design, each shoe can require the use of up to 35 pieces of leather. Each piece needs to be individually treated and checked by hand before being assembled to create the final shoe.
The Limited Edition Spring/Summer 2014 Tod’s Gommino will be available at Tod’s boutiques worldwide from July 2014.
