SUPERCLEAN KUDU CLASSIC TAN

Capacity: 0 pairs  /  Sold Out  /  $204.83 (Save $136.56) Free Shipping

Material: KUDU CLASSIC

The material we have chosen to build this shoe in is called KUDU.

The Kudu is a very large graceful antelope that grazes in the bushveld areas of Southern Africa. The Kudu is hunted in limited numbers to maintain ecological balance in national parks. Living wild ensures a lean fat to muscle ratio resulting in a strong tight skin.

Kudu is both breathable and reversible - both sides of the skin may be used. The skin side is nubuck like and has visible scratches and scars resulting from life in the wild. The reverse side of the skin is softer than the softest suede, with a lush and velvety texture.

Although Kudu does not need to be lined, this shoe is lined using French calf skin in order to maintain a sleek well formed toe, rather than the draping that would otherwise occur.

Laces: Waxed Cotton

This shoe is laced using a natural cotton lace that has been waxed for protection.

Outsole: Lactae Hevea

All natural sole from the milk of the Hevea tree.

Construction: Handsewn Goodyear

This process was pioneered by the Goodyear family and is the traditional method for manufacturing men's dress shoes.

The upper of the shoe is stretched over the last and stitched to a leather strip known as a welt. The Lactae Hevea sole is then stitched to this welt. This is a labour intensive process performed by expert craftspeople and allows for constant airflow through the shoe aiding ventilation, durability and strength.

Like all FEIT products the Superclean is hand made.

All prices are in US Dollar.
