Description
Our dark blue boat shoes, in suede leather with canvas cutouts. Entirely handmade, the upper toe box is hand-stitched with a needle and thread. Inspired by traditional sailing with raw-cut leather laces: an artisanal technique that allows the leather its natural expression. We’d pair them with taupe bermuda shorts and a linen crewneck.
Construction
It’s like a glove. The tubular moccasin construction is when the upper forms a leather tube that sits on top of the sole. It’s the definition of softness and flexibility, and feels like having a pair of slippers on your feet.
Color
Unrefined leather goes through the traditional process called “tanning”. And is treated so to prevent it from decomposition or loss in flexibility. Afterwards, the leather is put in a rotating wood barrel with water and blue coloring solution for dyeing. Water is then warmed up to 60°C to help the color bind to the leather for a lasting finish.
Material
We’ve paired canvas, similar to panama cloth but more durable, with suede calf leather. The latter comes from the innermost part of the leather, which then goes through a sanding process. This consists of the abrasion of the surface of the leather, giving it that characteristic velvety effect. The resulting shoe has two souls, and is 100% handcrafted.
Sole
It’s made with anti-slip rubber, perfect for facing a boat surface; not to mention your everyday life. As the old sailing tradition encourages, the shape of this sole isn’t flat: indeed, it’s got a small heel.
