6. Berluti Rapiécés Reprisés – Price: $1900
We’re closing in at the half of our top and we still didn’t enter the meteoric prices list, but yes, it’s coming!
A very small amount have been made and Berluti is known for creating exclusive pairs. Very similar to the Ferrari business model these days, you need to send an invitation up front and if your are approved they start creating the shoe.
The pricing starts at $1900 but the company reports that most of their pairs are completely customized to fit the needs of the future owner.
People choose to order custom shoes because they tell the world “I’m different, I have class and I’m successful!” and most of them pay large sums of money to make that message clear!
