This was a huge disappointment. I was very excited to have boots custom-made by hand, by experts,…read morefor the first time in my life. Within two days of my starting to wear the boots, the cloth tag (for pulling them on) ripped off in my hand. Within a month of wearing them sporadically, part of one of the heels chipped off. Within six months of wearing them maybe 2x/week, there were holes in the center of the soles, at the ball of the foot. They fit okay, no better than off the rack shoes I have bought. These are the most expensive shoes I've ever bought, by about 300%. They took a month making them, only finishing them the day before I left BA. (They had promised them a week earlier.) A guarantee is all well and good, but not for people who live in another country.

Really lovely shoes, gorgeous designs and excellent quality leather. This is a classic cobbler that…read morehas a ton of history and excellent craftsmanship. Everything is made with an attention to detail and quality that is hard to find anywhere else. They also do custom orders, personalising colors, ties, making really special shoes that will last you a very long time. Places like Correa are very unique so its wonderful to be part of a process that has a real history and true skill at its heart.

I'm not sure what to make of this place except I know what I like and I like it. Two adjacent…read moreshops. One has shoes and boots for men and women. The other is mostly purses and satchels for women. Almost all of the products are leather and in a multitude of pastel colors. The designs are so cool with seamless mix of retro and modern. Lots of attention to detail too. The soles of the shoes for example either have a molded design of Argentina or human metatarsals I think this is a stand-alone design house because when I asked, I was told this was the only place in the world to get these shoes. And boy was I ready to buy except... the entire block was out of electricity and I didn't have time before my flight to get cash. I didn't see anything in either store that I did not like a lot. So cool. I'll be back before Christmas. They don't have a website and their facebook page does not do them justice. https://www.facebook.com/TaconesLejanosArgentina/info

I was visiting San Telmo market in Buenos Aires and just happened to see this shop.I looked at the…read morewindow display and thought I should go in. I'm pleased I did because I bought a pair of trainers which are so cool I can't believe I was lucky enough to spot them and make a purchase. They weren't cheap but if they were, they wouldn't be so well made and are leather inside as well as out. I'm reluctant to wear them because they are so nice but when I do, people will ask me where I got them. I will take pleasure in telling them to go to BA and get a pair. Not so easy from the UK! I can't find a website where I could look for another pair, suppose I could pick up the 'phone.

i returned to Guido after 23 years away ftom Argentina. the suede loafers I bought from them in…read more2001 are still holding strong. my husband and I just bought six beautiful pairs of shoes and six belts from Guido which we expect will last us another 20 years. the English-speaking salesman was not pushy but was very helpful. the selection from casual to formal shoes was widespread. the quality is exceptional and the prices reasonable compared with similar shoes in America or Europe as you can see, I recommend this store highly!
