Charook Classic Blau – Handmade Leather Shoes, Turquoise Blue

A strong turquoise blue on grained goat leather — the Classic as a piece of colour, worn deliberately against a quiet outfit.

The pale cross seam over the toe cap and the narrow piping at the opening stand clearly apart from the blue and give the shoe its handwriting. Because the leather stays untreated, the colour reads matt rather than lacquered and settles down over the years. Available up to size 47, so also for men willing to try colour.

Material

The shoe is 100 % leather: a buffalo-leather outsole, a lamb-leather lining and a goat-leather outer shell. The leather is untreated and natural. Goat leather lets the feet breathe, so no bad odours build up and the foot stays cool — which is why these shoes stay comfortable over long days.

Fit and size

Natural leather stretches slightly over the first few days and moulds to your foot. We recommend your usual size; go up one if you have a high instep or a wide foot. The sole is flat and flexible — you feel the ground without giving up a protective layer of leather.

Care

The leather is untreated and natural. Wipe off dust with a dry, soft cloth and work in a colourless leather conditioner from time to time. Never machine wash and never dry on a radiator — let the shoes air at room temperature.
