Moccasins

rethought anew, methODically by the sea. Light and comfortable. Bare.





CONSTRUCTION

can be perceived straight through transparent sole. Apart from high quality leather we apply Dacron (Yacht Sailcloth Polyester) used to sail making, as well as zigzag sailing stitches as yet another reference to maritime traditions.
