The most stylish men covet the sensation of walking (and driving) on the sole studded with 133 rubber pebbles of a moccasin born in 1978 inspired by the automobile shoes of the fifties. Over the years, the Gommino has been updated with a multitude of styles, including the Bubble model, an evolution with softer leather in which rubber pebbles in contrasting colors become oversized.
But what has not changed throughout the brand's history is the taste for quality and craftsmanship. The skins used come from the best tanneries in the world and the production process requires a high level of skill, because the leather cutting and sewing are done by hand. Each Tod's Gommino is made up of up to 35 pieces of leather and its assembly requires more than a hundred steps.
To add extra exclusivity, the My Gommino service allows you to create a personalized shoe with different combinations of leathers and colors.
In the 1990s the ideal complement for this footwear arrived, the Di Bag, a bag created with techniques similar to those of saddles. It became a success with clients such as Princess Diana, Caroline of Monaco and actresses Anne Hathaway, Monica Bellucci, Kate Winslet, Jennifer Garner, Sharon Stone and Zoe Saldana. In Tod's boutiques in Milan, New York, London, Paris, Shanghai, Tokyo or Seoul it can be personalized with the name of the city, as a special souvenir.
