Garmsville by Goral
When designing these sneakers, our goal was to redefine the classic preppy Americana deck shoe using only the finest materials. The blue trim? It’s not rubber or plastic – it’s vegetable-tanned leather, just like the premium leather lining inside. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered. We focused on clean lines and subtle stitching to ensure both durability and timeless appeal. This is a supremely comfortable, resoleable sneaker built to guarantee a lifetime of wear.
The Materials
WAXED COTTON CANVAS - made with a substantial waxed cotton canvas by Halley Stevensons with a rugged herringbone weave reverse raised in finishing to give an antique appearance and feel.
VEGETABLE TAN LINING & DETAIL - the blue trim? It’s not rubber or plastic – it’s premium vegetable-tanned leather, just like the lining inside.
DURABLE RUBBER OUTSOLE - with rubber grips. It resists moisture and wears well on almost any surface.
THE FOUR KEY STAGES OF SHOEMAKING CRAFTSMANSHIP
CLICKING
The clicking process is a crucial step in shoe manufacturing, where the individual leather pieces that make up the upper are cut into precise shapes before being assembled. This stage gets its name from the sound the machines make as they cut through the material.
CLOSING
The closing process in shoe manufacturing refers to the stage where the individual components of the shoe upper, such as the vamp, quarters, and tongue, are sewn or stitched together to form the complete upper structure of the shoe.
LASTING
The lasting process is a critical stage in shoe manufacturing, where the shoe's upper is molded into its final shape and attached to the sole. This process gives the shoe its structure, fit, and comfort, making it one of the most important steps in creating a well-constructed shoe.
FINALISING
The shoes undergo a thorough inspection and refinement before they are packaged and shipped to you. This process is critical for ensuring that each pair of shoes meets the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
