The last
DETROIT
Detroit is our American inspired last, with a slightly squared toe and a roomier instep and toe area. A comfortable and sturdy choice, perfect for casual models. It pairs perfectly well with rubber soles and thick welts. In addition, it is one of the oldest lasts in the house with many models hand drawn over it and a timeless result.
The leather
Cordovan
Shell Cordovan is a staple material of fine men’s shoemaking. Shell cordovan looks smooth, lustrous, and richly coloured in shades of burgundy, brown, and black. Shell Cordovan is a much more labour-intensive leather than cowhide. Cordovan shoe will age very well and develop a particularly beautiful patina over time. The name Shell comes from the circular shape of the skin. Today, only a few factories in the world tan shell cordovan. Among them, the most recognized is Horween, which is based in Chicago and run by the Horween family. The Cordovan shoes will age gracefully and develop a particularly beautiful patina over time. All our leather is sourced from the Horween Leather Company of Chicago.
The sole
Rendenbach
Oak-bark tanned leather sole from John. Rendenbach ("JR") in Germany. Because of the tight grain of an oak-bark tanned leather soles, they wear longer and require more infrequent replacing. Leather with the JR-Brand label is waterproof and extremely abrasion resistant, tough yet flexible, very comfortable to wear and optically distinguished by its attractive grain and warm, woody colour.
