Field notes & wear

Tested across stone pavements

Documented wear accounts from city avenues to Mediterranean coastlines, recording how unlined vegetable-tanned straps mold and age through deliberate seasons.

Verified wear

Daily wear observations

The unlined vegetable-tanned hide yielded within two warm afternoons. No chafing along the instep, and the leather has deepened to rich honey amber.

Marcus T., product designer

Solid brass hardware stays completely anchored through city gravel and sea spray. The arch support carries full days of walking without fatigue.

Claire S., design curator

Three summers on Parisian limestone without resoling. The edge burnishing remains tight and the leather footbed contours closer every month.
