How many pairs of shoes do you have in your closet? Honestly, it pains me to tell you that I have around 75. And the reality of the situation? I wear around 10 of them on the regular. What do they have in common? Well, it’s easy. At least five of them are from M.Gemi. I first wrote about them back in 2015 and have since featured them here, here and most recently here. So, it’s safe to say I’ve basically fallen in love with the Italian brand! M Gemi shoes are handcrafted in Italy, making the quality out of this world, at an affordable price. Those are two of the reasons I #lovemgemi, but to find out my other three keep reading!

For years, I’ve loved the luxury of designer shoes, but the price point makes me cringe. All that changed when I discovered MGemi. The second I bought my first pair of Stellato flats, I was hooked. So, why all the hype? I’m glad you asked.
5 Reasons to Buy MGemi Shoes
1. They’re crafted by local, family-owned workshops in Italy.
We’re not talking mass production… we’re talking attention to detail. They’re handmade, meaning they’ll fit better and last longer. You simply don’t get that quality with most other brands!
2. M Gemi shoes are sold at an affordable price.
To be clear – we’re still talking a few hundred dollars. But, it’s a far cry from the $500-1K retail cost you’ll see on nearly every other major designer brand.
3. Their customer service is GOLD!
From their free shipping and returns (I’ve bought a few pair in two sizes so I could be sure to get the best fit), to their email response time and friendliness, they make you feel like family.
4. Did I mention that they release new, limited edition designs every Monday?
I live for my “early access” emails that give me a sneak peek on Sunday’s (which really just means I’ve bought so many pairs I’m on a VIP list or maybe their email subject lines have just won me over).
5. Their comfort is NEXT LEVEL!
Dare I say – I’ve never had to break them in. I walked the streets of NYC during fashion week and felt like I could keep going.
So… confession time. I mentioned I have 5 pairs. But, reality is I have more like 7 or 8 because I’ve actually bought back-up pairs of my favorites (the Palestra sneaker and my white Felize moccasins). I also have the Esatto heel (worn above) in two colors – grey and black suede. Like I noted above – they’re all limited edition. So, a girls gotta make sure she has access to them in the future!
