The last
RAIN
Rain is one of our most versatile and appreciated lasts. This last is always our recommended last for someone looking for their first Carmina pair. With a subtly squared-off toe and regular fitting both in the instep and toe area, its proportions make it ideal for casual models with an elegant look. Moreover, it provides a very balanced space throughout the foot.
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.
