Vegetable-tanned full-grain leather from Conceria Walpier in Tuscany. Cut by hand. Burnished with beeswax and patina dye over twelve days.
Hand-stitched Margom rubber sole, 14 mm. Designed in Italy, assembled in Porto. Replaceable. Refurbishable. Yours for a decade if you let it.
A medium-volume last with extra room across the toe and a snug heel cup. True to size for narrow to standard feet. Half-size up if you're between.
Each pair is built start-to-finish by a single member of our 12-person Porto team. Their initials are stamped under the tongue. You can write to them.
Eighty-four upper materials, all sourced from European tanneries we've worked with for at least eight years. Touch each one in the configurator. Or order a swatch box for £14 — refunded against your first order.
