Production Process
Goodyear Welted : 25 % of our shoes are made using the traditional Goodyear
stitch and are submitted to a strict quality control process. The shoes
are made by a team of skilled craftsmen who carefully handle each stage
of production.
Step 1.Creating the last : The master last-maker creates a wooden mould
by hand after completing an ergonomic analysis of the foot to combine comfort
and aesthetic appeal.
Step 2.Tracing the pattern : This tradition is no longer used by most
fabricants of this kind of shoe, but we continue to use it as part of the
production process. It consists of drawing the model directly onto the
wooden shoe last.
Step 3.Creating the pattern : The lines traced on the last in three dimensions
are transferred to a two-dimensional pattern that indicates the cut of
the pieces of leather and lining for the upper part of the shoe..
Step 4. Selecting the materials : We use meticulously selected materials
from only the best sources.They are always stored at the same temperature
so that they acquire the texture needed for cutting. We specialise in treating
shell cordovan leather, a highly prized animal skin of exquisite quality.
