Leather, penny loops and a pin on the heel
When a penny loafer becomes much more than just a shoe: the Gerard x Cuoio di Toscana capsule collection tells a story of identity, craftsmanship and heritage through every detail.
Keep reading...The new collection: contemporary without ostentation, international allure without forgetting its roots. For Autumn/Winter 2026/27, Baldinini charts a new course for its stylistic language, reaffirming the casual spirit embedded in the brand’s DNA and translating it into an everyday aesthetic that is authentic and understated.
The logo becomes understated, the silhouettes harmonise, and the details speak softly yet with authority. In the womens’ collection, antique gold metallic elements blend naturally into the uppers, warming smooth leathers, suede and textured fabrics. The palette — amethyst, burgundy, antique pink, Japanese Maple — creates a sophisticated and recognisable chromatic universe. Quilting returns, a hallmark of the brand’s heritage, reinterpreted from equestrian boots to everyday loafers. An ‘Evening’ capsule collection brings it all full circle: accessible glamour, with apparent effortlessness.
For men, lightweight constructions and technical details engage with an evolved formality. The Spiga and Trieste lines bring artisanal craftsmanship into a modern elegance. Slayton makes its debut: a sneaker with a running silhouette and an urban soul. The gender-neutral aesthetic runs through the entire casual range, with the Bond line balancing sartorial rigour and street sensibility.
In the background, the SS26 campaign ‘Greetings from San Mauro Mare’ reaffirms the brand’s territorial identity as a starting point — not as nostalgia, but as a strategic compass.
