Lightly worn (less than 10 times). SMOOTH LEATHER Our smooth calfskin leather is full-grain, crafted from the outermost layer: the most premium part of the animal. BLAKE STITCH CONSTRUCTION This construction method secures the sole to the shoe using a Blake stitch - named after the machine used to create it LEATHER SOLE Made to last from vegetable tanned cowhide. Its edges are smoothed, polished and brushed. MADE IN ITALY Production is based in Montegranaro, in the Marche region, where the tradition of shoemaking has deep roots. For a product that lasts, we only select leathers that age well and put our trust in people who have been in this industry for generations. The artisans in our workshops have learned the job through family and know each and every trade secret. Just like Genesio, who cuts leather with a keen eye and extreme precision. CARE Leather gains beauty with age, so long as it is well taken care of. Here’s how: Use a brush to get rid of dust. Use the same brush to apply a cream. If the shoe is lightly colored, you’re better off using one that’s transparent or has a neutral color. Wait at least 20 minutes: when the polish has dried, buff it in using a dry cloth. Spray a deodorizing sanitizer spray on the inside of the shoe and wait a few hours before wearing. Take a look at our leather care kit: inside you’ll find everything you need to care for smooth leather of any color. Entirely made in Italy, naturally.
