It should probably be noted that Gommini are fairly hard out of the box and rather narrow, people with wider feet may wanna go half a size up. Also, walking on studs takes some getting used to and you will feel the studs more than on cheaper moccasins. They do break in nicely but it takes some walking.
What to do if my gommino has worn or damaged?
If the wear or damage is to the sole, the pebbles will be removed and a rubber sole applied, making your regular Gommino more or less the city version.
