Brushed Full Grain Leather

Pieno Fiore leather represents excellence in the world of leather goods. It is the outermost layer of the animal epidermis, preserved in its integrity and natural beauty. Its surface, characterized by softness and unique grain, has not undergone any alteration process, preserving the original characteristics of the material.

Brushing enhances the intrinsic qualities of Pieno Fiore leather, making it even smoother and uniformly shiny. The result is a material of unparalleled beauty, perfect for making top-class garments and accessories.

When you choose a Pieno Fiore leather product, you are choosing much more than just leather; you are embracing a piece of nature transformed into art, ready to embellish your every day with a pinch of timeless elegance.

Leather with non-slip rubber clip

Leather is a resistant, hygienic, durable and reusable material. Its characteristics remain unchanged for a long time and the passing of time helps to make it more aesthetically beautiful. Anti-slip rubber clips are injected into the leather of the sole which allow the breathability properties of the leather to be maintained without fearing the rain: this is how the iconic Ciccone sole was born.

Blake Rapid processing

The Blake Rapid process was invented by Lyman Reed Blake in 1858 and immediately achieved great success, especially in Italy where it is still among the most used processes today. Its genius lies in the double "Blake" stitching that joins the upper, the insole, the lining and the midsole, while the "Rapid" puts the midsole and sole together, increasing the shoe's resistance and waterproofness. This makes the sole comfortable, yet durable.

How to care for leather shoes?

To keep your leather shoes looking their best, we recommend following these simple instructions:

Cleaning and polishing: Use one cream based on beeswax for polishing and apply it with a brush made of horsehair to avoid scratching the leather.

Protection: Periodically use a waterproofing product such asACQUASHOES Allows you to protect your shoes from moisture and stains

Conservation: Store your shoes in a dry place and away from direct heat sources. The ideal would be to use shoe tree made of cedar wood to maintain the original shape.

Duration: To increase their durability I recommend that you always alternate the shoes you wear and in case of rain, wait for them to dry completely before putting your wet shoes back on.

Slow Foot

The animal leather we use is a by-product of the meat and dairy industry. Instead of being discarded and becoming waste, leather is recovered and transformed into a durable, high-quality material. This approach reduces waste and enhances every part of the animal, promoting a more efficient and less impactful production cycle. This motivation, combined with its durability and ability to be repaired, make animal skin the most sustainable material that can be used to make shoes. This is what we believe in!
