Alves - Brown

Meet your new sole mate...

The Alves by Zardus is handmade in Portugal from dark brown tumbled leather, featuring a naturally flexible crepe sole and a wide toe box that allows the foot to move freely. Finished with leather laces and a vegetable-tanned leather insole, each pair is hand-stitched with care. The considered production process also uses over 50% fewer adhesives and unnecessary materials than conventional footwear.

Made in Portugal.

With a shoemaking heritage spanning four generations, Zardus has been crafting footwear in Portugal since 1919. Its collection pairs minimalist, contemporary design with traditional craftsmanship, locally sourced materials, and ergonomic shapes designed to follow the natural form of the foot.
