Yes, all of our sneakers' upper parts are made with full-grain calf leather. This is one of the best materials to use in footwear, as it has properties that comfort and support your feet. We also internally line our sneakers with leather to maximize their breathability and use leather insoles that mold to your feet for a perfect fit.

Our shoes' cost is driven by our use of higher quality materials and construction.

Not only do we use the best leathers, but our shoes are 100% made from start to finish by artisans in Italy who earn a respectable living wage to support themselves and their families.

While we manufacture in the same region where other higher-end brands, such as Prada, Gucci, and Chanel, make their shoes, we are able to pass great savings onto you by selling online, direct-to-consumer and avoiding retail mark-ups and other middle men.

Our outsoles are both glued and stitched onto our sneakers' leather uppers to make our shoes much more durable and higher in quality. Rest assured that we only work with artisans who have generations of shoemaking experience and employ best practices.

Our sneakers run true to size. One of the great properties of the leather that we use is that it's very soft and flexible, and it will mold to your feet after a few wears to achieve a perfect fit.

Width-wise, our sneakers are narrow-to-standard, and not wide.

If you're still unsure, be sure to take our fit quiz at the bottom of the size selection on each shoe page.

Our sneakers provide support for flat-to-medium arches. If you need further support, you can easily remove the insoles to fit additional orthotics.

Absolutely not. This is why we purposely craft all of our sneakers with full-grain calf leather whose natural properties make it the best material for footwear. It's a super soft and elastic, yet extremely durable leather that will mold to your feet after a few uses to provide you with a comforting, perfect fit.

Yes, all of our sneakers have removable insoles, allowing you to fit additional orthotics.

Thanks to our EVA outsoles, our sneakers absorb the impact of your steps, protecting your joints from wear and tear.

On the contrary. The leather that we use is highly breathable. It absorbs and disperses your feet's sweat, allowing your feet to stay dry and preventing the development of fungi and bacteria.

Our sneakers' leather has a tighter grain and denser fiber structure that makes it stronger and more youthful than other leathers. While it may crease naturally with use, our leather does not peel nor crack. It becomes more beautiful with age and its natural patina develops a rich character. With proper care, it can last a lifetime.

Instructions for cleaning the leather:
1. Remove the laces.
2. Use a soft horsehair buffing brush or cotton cloth to remove the dust from the shoes.
3. If your shoes' color is fading out, apply a small amount of leather cream with a foam sponge or soft cloth. Spread the cream all around the leather and then wait 20 min. Skip this step if the color isn't fading.
4. Gently apply leather polish in circular movements with a soft horsehair buffing brush or foam sponge.
5. Once the polish dries, softly rub the shoes with a nylon or cotton cloth until the leather's natural shine returns.

General Care:
- Insert cedar wood shoe trees to retain the shoes' shape and keep the leather dry.
- Rotate your shoes so you don't wear the same pair daily.

Instructions for cleaning the outsoles:
1. Using a soft toothbrush, rub soapy water against the sole without touching the leather.
2. Dry off the sole with a dry cloth.
