Our shoes are handmade. The leathers and materials used in manufacturing (including metal accessories) can be affected by exposure to friction with other materials and chemicals, climatic factors and external elements that can cause damage to the product. For this reason, we recommend taking care of the products by avoiding rain, exposure to high temperatures, oils and greases, makeup and alcohol (including perfumes) and any other type of abrasive substances.
Leather is not an artificial product, but a completely natural one. Its entire process is designed to maintain these characteristics. Each leather has its own living structure, its own pattern of scars and variations in its tone. That is the reason why each leather is unique and genuine.
Keep in mind that it is normal that when you try on your shoes, they seem a little tight and hard because they are new. Remember that with use, the fibers give way and soften, especially if they are made of genuine leather.
