Our shoes are often born of the wishes or specific needs of our end client: the product is then enhanced with the utmost personalization, which starts with the planning and shaping phases. The cut of the vamp is done exclusively by hand, to ensure that only the best leather is chosen for a specific model.

Each pair of our vamps is crafted from beginning to end by a single person. This guarantees a precise and accurate semi-finished product, perfect even in the smallest details, visible and not.

The shoe, literally, "takes shape." This is mostly done by hand, with pliers, hammer and nails, just like the handmade tradition demands. The machinery helps the artisans somewhat. It can't however be a substitute in any way for the taste and the expertise of workers with decades of experience.

A very specific operation, perhaps not used in "modern" footwear. Nevertheless, an essential step for us, in order to give the shoe the right "edge" and to get the vamp to fit perfectly on the last. The only tool used by the artisan, in this instance, is the hammer.
