Behold: the nine-piece bespoke shoe collection designed by Alessandro Sartori as his first act as artistic director of heritage Italian menswear label Ermenegildo Zegna. Each shoe was made for one of Sartori’s close friends, and serves as the base for a client’s bespoke customisations, exclusively at the brand’s new flagship store on Bond Street in London.
