What Handmade Means
Our custom shoes are crafted by skilled artisans in Europe using traditional shoemaking methods. “Handmade” means that each pair is carefully shaped, lasted, finished, and detailed by hand — not mass-produced on an assembly line.
Small machinery is used only where it improves durability and precision, such as stitching the uppers or securing the welt. Every critical step that affects fit, comfort, and the beauty of the leather is done by hand.
This approach offers the perfect balance of craftsmanship and value: the artistry of bespoke shoemaking with the strength and consistency of modern techniques.
Consultation and Measurements
For your first appointment, we'll meet you at our show room in Union Square, 275 Post, San Francisco to measure and pick out all the options, from the supple leather, style, stitching, soles, and many other details.
