Like a group of dapper nomads, riding boots challenge the Burberry’s shearling lined leather boots and Cavalli’s patent combats. If you have to single out a plain and simple message behind Massimiliano Giornetti’s latest collection for Salvatore Ferragamo, it is to maximize your options. From oversized knits to boots that cut a little under the knee, “think big” for next fall, should now be added to your list of to-do’s.

As boots sweep Fall 2010 and take over runways from Milan to Paris, Giornetti leaves you to face the daunting decision of suede or leather? Bowed velvet for you you loafer lovers. In every shade of color that you would ever associate with fall and the year’s colder temperatures, this season’s Ferragamo man is more of a free spirit, with very high standards of living.

Playing with more patterns this time around, as opposed to his Spring 2010 collection, Giornetti revamps plaid and makes head to toe purple something chic. Creating for a timeless collection that transcends both age and experience.
