Meet Some of the Master Artisans Who Make Each Pair.

Alida

As a master seamstress, she prepares our shoe leather uppers before they're stitched onto the EVA outsoles. Alida learned her trade from her mom and developed a passion for shoe-making from when she was little.

Tanya

Her role is to thin out the multiple pieces of leather that make up our shoes' uppers before they get stitched together. She chose to become a shoe artisan, as it was one of the main professions in the town she comes from.

SIZE GUIDE

Our shoes run true to size. Right away, they should fit snug, but not tight. After some use, the leather will mold to your feet for a perfect fit. The width fits regular, not wide.

If you’re uncertain, please follow the instructions below for properly measuring your feet. Then, match your measurements with the closest Foot Length and Width to locate your recommended Mocalmo size.

Measuring Instructions.
Trace your longest foot onto a piece of paper. For better accuracy, it’s best to do this while standing up and wearing the socks (if any) you’d wear with our shoes. Be sure that as you trace your foot, you keep the pen straight against your foot instead of angled in.

Foot Length.
With a measuring tape, measure from the tip of your longest toe to the top of your heel.  

Foot Width.
Measure from the widest part of one side of your foot to the widest part of the other side. In most cases, this will be a diagonal line.

HOW WE MAKE THEM
To achieve true beauty and comfort, at MOCALMO, we refuse to compromise on quality.

That’s why all of our sneakers are handmade from start to finish in Italy by artisans in Le Marche, the world’s best and oldest shoe manufacturing district. Our artisans leverage time-honored production techniques that have placed them at the forefront of high-end, luxury footwear. 


CAREFUL CONSTRUCTION
Behind all of our pairs is an artisan that pays close attention to every detail as he or she constructs our sneakers. This gives each pair a personal touch that makes your sneakers unique.

  • The Lasts: our lasts, which give the sneakers their shape, have been studied and refined over the years to achieve a glove-like fit for your feet without crushing your toes.
  • Cushioned in key areas for extra comfort
  • Sole sidewalls stitched into uppers for durability
  • Hidden seems sewn inside-out for a cleaner look 
  • Hand-polished leather for elegance
  • Hand-painted details 
  • Soft-padded calf leather insole that’s also removable
  • Hidden metal eyelets for smooth lace pass-through and protection
  • Waxed cotton laces
PURPOSEFUL MATERIALS
The Leather: We intentionally make our sneakers with full-grain calf leather tanned in Italy because its characteristics make it the best material for footwear. Europe’s more protective breeding standards and stringent ecological regulations make a significant difference in the leather’s quality.

In addition to our leather’s natural beauty, we also love its other properties:

Highly Hygienic: Leather is composed of collagen, a protein that forms a tridimensional structure of fibers that allows for thermal insulation, which is useful in all types of weather. Because of its breathability, leather absorbs and disperses your foot’s sweat throughout the day. It allows your foot to stay dry and prevents the development of fungi or bacteria which thrive in humid and dark environments.

Durable: Full-grain calfskin has a tighter grain and denser fiber structure that makes it stronger and more youthful than other leathers. Our leather does not eventually peel, crack, and become brittle like faux leather.

Instead, it becomes more beautiful with age, with its natural patina developing a rich character.

Flexible: Calf leather is also soft and light. Collagen gives it elastic properties, so it molds to your foot with use. This means that over time, your shoes get closer to a perfect fit, which is great for posture and joint health.

The Sole: We use EVA cup soles because they are lightweight and flexible. They also provide great shock absorption to protect you from the impact of your steps. For increased longevity, our artisans hand-stitch our soles’ sidewalls to our sneakers’ leather uppers.

 

SHOE CARE

Taking good care of your shoes will prolong their life and keep the leather looking polished and sharp.

Shoe trees: we recommend inserting shoe trees to help the shoe retain its original shape. After cleaning your shoes, the shoe trees also enable them to dry evenly. Shoe trees made of cedar wood will absorb the moisture from your shoes, keeping them fresh.

Leather polish: beeswax-based polish helps soften and shine the leather and can be applied any time.

Leather cream: leather cream made from lanolin and turpentine helps emphasize your shoes’ color and should only be used when the color starts fading out.

Instructions for cleaning the leather:
1. Remove laces.
2. With a soft horsehair buffing brush or cloth, remove the dust from the shoes.
3. Wrap your middle and index fingers in a soft cloth and apply a small amount of cream. Spread the cream all around the leather and then wait 20 min. (When wearing out is more obvious, leave the cream overnight, and then apply a second coat the next day.)
4. Use a soft horsehair buffing brush to gently apply polish on the leather in circular movements. To obtain a glossy effect, dip another cloth in water and then use it to apply polish on the shoe.
5. Once the polish dries, softly rub the shoes with a nylon cloth.

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