THE MAKING PROCESS
The process of over 250 manual steps begins with the choice of the perfect last based on a set of precise measurements of the customers feet. Taking from the finished design, a pattern is made according to the specified style of the customer. With every detail considered and perfected, the artisan begins the metamorphic process of turning naturally sourced materials into objects of pure refinement.

Welt
A shoe is only as good as the materials and the construction method used to construct them. Given the artisanal quality of our shoes and boots we utilise the Goodyear and Blake Welting method in sole construction. These particular compositions bestows every pair with an unparalleled level of strength and allows for future refurbishments, lengthening its lifespan by years or even decades.
