Fattomano is the only shoemaker I recommend to friends and clients. My Fattomano shoes lasted four years of hard use in the milongas of Buenos Aires. You can have shoes made to your specifications in about two weeks:
1. select the heel style and height 2. select the style (closed toe, open toe, open back, T-strap, crossed straps, etc) 3. select the leather or suede from a wide range of colors and combinations 4. select medium or thick padding inside 5. select leather or chrome sole 6. sized to fit I took a friend there last week on Monday. She ordered five pairs. Four of the five pairs were ready on Friday afternoon, only four days later. The fifth pair was ready yesterday, and she returns home tonight very happy with all of her Fattomano shoes. Juan Carlos Balsas is always creating new styles to keep up with the market demand for high quality dance shoes. He has five craftsmen working in the back while he takes care of customers. The factory is located in Palermo Viejo at Guatamala 4464 (Scalabrini Ortiz 2000) Hours are Monday to Friday 11am-1pm and 4-7pm, but it is best to call ahead for an appointment.
