Calf Leather is utilised for its strength, durability and smooth finish. Nappa Leather is utilised for its fine grain finish and soft texture. Due to the supple nature, shoes crafted from Nappa Leather may stretch over time. Suede or Kid Suede is typically goat leather and offers a luxuriously soft feel. Our canvas is crafted from 100% cotton, while our Mesh styles are crafted from a blend of cotton and nylon, to ensure the longevity of these intricate styles.
