Made properly.
Nothing else.
Eleven years. One shoe. No shortcuts.
I started this because I could not find the shoe.
There was a gap. A shoe with the character of a proper dress shoe but with a rubber sole and enough personality to wear with jeans on a Saturday.
Molont launched in 2015. Every production run has been self-funded. No investors, no external capital.
I am a dad. I want my kids to see what it looks like when someone builds something with genuine care instead of cutting corners.
