Sometimes everything begins not with an idea, but with disappointment.
When you realize that what you truly need simply doesn’t exist.
And that is when the idea appears.
The idea of creating an alternative that doesn’t force you to compromise your principles,
yet respects centuries of craftsmanship and takes only the best from it,
has become reality.
An alternative that allows you to choose — exists.
The classic stiletto pump is a form that does not depend on seasons and does not follow trends.
Its value lies in the precision of the silhouette and the purity of the line.
Footwear has always been able to offer this silhouette,
and vegan materials — ethics.
But a solution that united form and principles simply did not exist.
Today, technology allows us to work without compromises.
We preserve the classic construction
and choose materials capable of maintaining its line at the proper level.
We work with a form we genuinely love.
And we continue to choose it.
“In the beginning was the word, and the word was—Form.”
A material that was once just a sheet of textile became a form.
For several years, we experimented and tested different combinations of materials
that could meet the highest requirements for:
- abrasion resistance
- tear strength
- breathability
- water resistance
- compatibility with production processes
- temperature resistance
Biopolymers are unique materials that exist today thanks to bold innovators.
These are the materials known as apple leather, bamboo leather, cactus leather, pineapple leather, and others.
So what exactly is apple, bamboo, or cactus leather?
Can you simply take a piece of fruit skin and…
Not quite.
The plant raw material is dried, milled into powder, blended with polymers in precise proportions,
applied to a base — and your “apple sheet” is ready.
Today we use biopolymers that have received awards in innovation categories.
We create our shoes in Italy, in the Veneto region,
where shoemaking traditions are passed down from generation to generation.
And we appreciate that tradition and innovation meet in our stilettos.
