SAMARA Waxy Commander leather Vibram low top sneakers

The SAMARA is named after the Samara seed, selected for its lightness and versatility - qualities that reflect the design of the shoe. Much like the Samara seed, which is carried effortlessly by the wind over long distances, the shoe is engineered to glide smoothly across any terrain. In nature, Samaras represent movement, resilience, and adaptability - traits that perfectly complement the performance of a hiking shoe. 

The SAMARA is crafted from the world-renowned Charles F. Stead Waxy Commander leather. This premium, full-grain leather is renowned for its durability, luxurious texture, and distinctive appearance. With its signature waxed finish, it has a subtle sheen and a rich, deep colour that only improves with time, developing a unique patina with use. The waxed finish not only enhances its visual appeal but also provides increased water resistance, making it perfect for outdoor activities. The leather’s ruggedness ensures it stands up to wear and tear, while still maintaining a soft, supple feel. 

The Vibram Arctic Grip soles are specially designed to excel in cold, icy conditions. Developed by Vibram, a leader in high-performance outsoles, Arctic Grip offers superior traction on wet ice and slippery surfaces. 

The small details are what truly set this collaboration apart, with the lustrous natural vegetable tan lining, a full leather lasting board, a Blake stitch construction, and a leather heel counter. The hand-stitch at the toe bumper ensures security, guaranteeing the highest quality and long-lasting durability.

This is a limited edition collaboration with The Iron Snail.

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.
