The Eleanor is a decidedly feminine t-strap, wonderfully versatile paired with the rugged contrast of denim or to highlight a feminine dress.
Our new method of shoemaking has a double layer stitched back seam to provide heel structure without gripping the ankle.
Made with our own olive leaf tanned cow leather from the Northern Spain.
These shoes are hand cut and hand dyed, so variations are usual and we believe add to the uniqueness of a handmade shoe.

Character: This is veg tan cow leather made especially for us. Like a favorite sweatshirt, this leather is thick and supple with a smooth surface.
Care: We suggest saddle soap for cleaning and a cream based leather conditioner from a local cobbler is best to keep leather strong. Make sure to test a small area first.
Provenance: This leather is from a tannery in the northern Pamplona region of Spain. The hides are sourced from just 5 hours away in Asturias to minimize salt and water usage. The tannery is fully audited and Gold Rated against LWG standards.
The tannin solution used is formulated in Germany by OlivenLeder, olive leaf waste from European olive oil industry. The tannin is metal free and synthetic/crude-oil free, 100% biobased content. Dermatest rated Excellent, CradletoCradle certified Gold, and Platinum rating for Material Health.
There are inherent variations in natural leathers, handmade manufacturing, and local sourcing. Color and texture variations can vary within the same hide. Different monitors can also display colors differently. You may indicate any preferences in tone or texture in the Notes to Shoemaker section if you are looking for something specific so we can do our best to accomodate.

Our insoles are cut from a thicker vegetable tanned leather than typical shoes to help with breathability and shock absorption.
The midsole, which serves as the chassis for a shoe, is also made of a vegetable tanned soling leather sourced from the US and Spain (we never use the typical factory cardboard). The material is also ideal for bacteria and odor prevention and great shock absorption.
Between the soles is a layer of cork.
Our soles are sourced from a family run sole manufacturer in Portugal in an area reknowned as one of the shoemaking capitals in Europe. Our soles and heels are made of Italian vegetable tanned leather. The heels are stacked leather or wood, no hollow plastic core heels, and rubber slip resistance.
We manufacture in Europe so have highest standards in glue safety, toulene free.
Makers: Our shoemakers are the absolute heart of our work. Handmade to order shoes require a deep understanding of the leather as it is being stretched and formed around the mold, of patterns and materials. Read more on our small and wonderful team of craftsmen here.
