Deerskin is a lightweight, breathable leather with a natural texture, characterised by its buttery softness and exceptional comfort. It's sourced from a tannery near Verona, Italy, specialising in deerskin.

Blake-stitching is the preferred construction method for sleeker silhouettes, allowing for a thinner sole. A single stitch connects the insole and outsole, offering flexibility and a refined appearance. This method keeps the shoe lightweight and comfortable without added bulk.

Thin rubber soles, also known as city rubber soles, are a great alternative to leather. They offer flexibility from the start, require no break-in period, and provide better traction in wet conditions — all while maintaining a sleek appearance.
