GUIDOMAGGI head honcho, Emanuele Briganti, is a busy man, circumnavigating the globe to build his brand and remain on the cutting edge of technology. With a new showroom planned in New York and breathless expansion of the brand, the company’s CEO and founder shared his lofty goals as he seeks to raise the elevator shoe genre to new heights.
I have worn elevators for about 10 years and lifts for the previous ten. I myself wish I had known, a long time ago, a lot of the things I have told you in some of my articles over the past five years! And when guys ask questions, in essence they revolve around very similar issues – “can you tell I am wearing them? How much height can I gain?”. But also specifics like ‘detection on flights’ etc are common – the real thing with these questions is this: you cannot truly tell until you have tried them! And for someone like myself, once I did, I never looked back.
Authentic luxury is the epitome of care, quality and character. All prerogatives that characterize both one of Rolex’s iconic watches, the Gmt Master II in yellow gold and green dial (reference number 116718) and the new Mezzago shoe by GuidoMaggi. What unites them, making them the most extraordinary combo of the season, is excellence. Both born from craftsmanship, they are exclusive items that do not just complete your outfit but also make it exclusive and sophisticated.
The chronograph par excellence of the Swiss brand combines with the new model of the Lecce Maison to enhance and elevate your style in all ways. The iconic charm of a watch that has made history fits perfectly with the lines and artistry of a handcrafted shoe designed for an elegant and never predictable look.

The new collection of the Italian brand presents elevator shoes that are a hymn to life and ignite the myth of La Dolce Vita. These are trendy models made to measure with precious leathers by the brand’s master craftsmen. From sneakers to loafers, from boots to lace-ups: each GM’s elevator shoe features incomparable luxury and the sophisticated soul of the most authentic Made in Italy. The CEO, Emanuele Briganti, says: “The elevator shoes of the new collection create new styles and trends that give emotions and inspire because they are made with passion and love”.
To aim higher is a necessity for contemporary man. In order to stand out, the right choice is to focus on excellence: the new GM elevator model is enhanced by the Submariner that made the history of the Swiss brand.
The cry is familiar: “I really want to try out elevators, I love the look of the GuidoMaggi ones, but I am not sure I dare take the plunge ‘just in case they are not right’. If it’s not right, I can’t afford to waste ‘that kinda cash’. What do you think I should go for first?”

Now here’s an issue that raises its head all the time when dating and particularly in online hookups. “Are you tall enough?” is the gist of it, stripped of its coyness. It’s an issue even for people who do not specify “I want a tall guy”, but it’s much more subtle than people realise and worth referring to here. It’s particularly interesting as the issue of height is almost never overwhelming and can be remedied by careful height addition. I know from my experience in what I do professionally, working in what is often called ‘the night time economy’.
