Our Italian trainer is made from pristine calf leather, coloured, and finished by hand in our artisan factory in Le Marche Italy. Strips are cut into the leather and individually twisted to create a textured pattern in the otherwise simple, clean upper. Some might say they are reminiscent of sharks’ gills – but others, of course, might not! The trainers are made in the traditional way and lasted to a super lightweight durable sole, secured with a side stitch. And, of course, we’ve included a full calf leather lining and insock.
