Floris van Bommel Raffa 01.09

This double buckle model is part of the classic Van Bommel collection. The shoe was made according to the Blake method. The sole sports a fine anti-slip profile. The sole is made of vegetable-tanned leather that is hand-treated with a stylish blue finish. The heel is divided into two sections by an elegant dovetail joint. The part that gets the most wear when walking is made of durable rubber, while the adjacent part is made of the same vegetable-tanned leather as the midsole. The heel is slightly sanded to prevent it from getting caught on the hem of the trousers. On the side of the sole edge, two very fine notches have been carved into the top and bottom. The upper edge of the suede shoe and the buckle edge are finished with slim black piping. The light brown suede comes from an Italian tannery specialising in suede in Fucecchio, Florence. The lining is entirely made of high-quality calf leather.
