This English shoe factory has been protecting the craft of artisan, hand-made shoe making for 194 years. Along with sustaining this careful craft, they support employment & suppliers of their local community entirely in Northampton, and employ practices of a circular economy rooted in the shoes themselves. Not only do they offer a take-back program to repair and extend the shoe's life, but design and build the shoes in a way that allows a second life to be entirely possible. Since 1974 this mill has made efforts to conserve water in luxury textile production. They comply with the standards of the following third-party certification: Textile and Health Association – Member.
This garment was produced at a family-owned Italian factory. It was initially founded in 1957 as a traditional tailor shop, transitioning to become a factory in 1985. Today it is run by the founder’s daughter and her husband.
Deerskin is one of the toughest hides available, spongy to the feel, extremely durable, and still lightweight enough to be luxurious. This skin is even capable of becoming wet and will return to its soft nature. The soles of these sneakers are made of LACTAE HEVEA®, a natural rubber derived from the milk of a hevea tree. Handmade by craftsmen skilled in this centuries-old technique, the soles have slight visual imperfections that are proof of their authenticity.
