Alves - Chestnut Reversed

Good things are afoot...

The Alves by Zardus brings together a clean, contemporary shape and thoughtful details. Handmade with chestnut tumbled leather, it features a naturally flexible crepe sole and a wide toe box that allows the foot to move naturally. Finished with hand-stitched construction, leather laces, and a vegetable-tanned leather insole.

Made in Portugal from premium suede. Hand-stitched construction, made with over 50% fewer adhesives and unnecessary materials than conventional footwear.

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.
