HANDMADE FROM FULL-GRAIN ITALIAN CALF LEATHER
Black is the workhorse. The pair you reach for when the day involves a client, a boardroom, or anywhere you need to look like you've made an effort without looking like you've tried. Black calf leather, silver double buckle, white rubber sole — formal enough for a suit, relaxed enough for dark denim.
Hand-lasted in Almansa, Spain from full-grain Italian calf leather. The slip-on construction means the monk straps are working buckles in appearance but you'll never actually need to touch them — on and off in seconds.

40 hours of handcraft. Every pair.
Filmed inside our workshop in Almansa, Spain. What you're watching is the shoe you're about to buy, at the stage before it became yours.
Every pair starts with a hide selected by hand in northern Italy and ends 40 hours later in Almansa, Spain.
We use full-grain calf leather from six tanneries in northern Italy — the same region that supplies Hermès and Berluti. Full-grain means the top layer of the hide is kept intact. It is the most durable, most beautiful, and most honest cut of leather you can use.
Lasting is the process of stretching the leather upper over a last — the foot-shaped mould that determines the final shape of the shoe. At our atelier in Almansa, this is done by hand. Each pair is shaped, stretched, and set by a craftsman who has been doing it for years.
Five stages. Forty hours. One pair.
Almansa is a small city in Castile-La Mancha that has been making shoes for 500 years. Our atelier produces approximately 200 pairs a month. They are not a factory. They are a workshop that happens to be very good at what they do.
