How to Stretch Leather Shoes

As we always state, your feet are unique to you, and finding the right pair of shoes can sometimes be a little tricky.

For the Love of Leather and Shoes

Using your hands to create changes everything.

I really and truly fell in love with craftsmanship and leather works only when I started working with my own hands.

My Introduction to Leather Shoe Making in Italy

My Introduction to Leather Shoe Making in Italy

Design has always been at the center of everything in my life: my childhood, my home activities, travels, my focus at schools, the perusal of higher education and my work. I never felt bound by it and felt the more I could experiment and create, the less I needed to communicate verbally – which I found was perfect for me.
