固特异是缝制鞋的一种工艺,可能由于比较早让媒体宣传的,是英国的那些老牌鞋厂,宣传他们的时候,可以借什么皇室,贵族等等词汇。作为资深玩家,或者工艺控,是对这种宣传口径十分鄙视的,但不好意思,大众最吃的,就是这一套。 英国这些品牌,都是使用的固特异工艺,使得大家可能默认缝制鞋就是固特异。从这一点来说,不得不感慨得媒体者得天下。英国和意大利,哪个国家才是缝制皮鞋制造业大国?从产销量来说,意大利肯定赢了。而在意大利,不能说没有固特异工艺,但永远只在从属地位。也就是说他们本质里倾向于布雷克缝制和意大利固特异工艺(我们后面再说什么叫意大利固特异)。 Post Views: 759

Mogada is a Munich based Germany bespoke shoemaker, I came across its astonishing shoes on Instagram. I didn’t know much about it such as the people behind, the history or its reputation domestically.

Crockett & Jones was regarded as the cornerstone of welted shoes globally. The reason is many aspects, one of which is Crockett & Jones made private labels for US brands. If we divide English shoes into three levels, entry be Barker and Loake, the epitome is John Lobb, Edward Green and Gaziano & Girling, then
