About us
We are American made, by southern hands. Built with love, a strong sense of pride, and a deep care for quality.
As shoe cobblers, we noticed a trend when our customers brought their worn out and broken sandals to us for repairs. Although many of the sandals were from high-end or luxury name brands, the quality was not up to the standard we would expect.
After living in and visiting areas along the Mediterranean and Florida Coast, we watched generational sandal makers construct beautiful sandals. We pulled from these experiences to craft classic-styled sandals that use quality materials and are constructed to last.
Above the Rest
We take pride in making 100% USA-made leather sandals for men. From the moment the leather is tanned at the renowned Seidel Tannery in Milwaukee, to the meticulous crafting in our local workshops, every step is a journey in pursuing perfection.
Unlike mass-produced alternatives, our men’s leather sandals tell a story of dedication. We spent over a year refining the design to ensure unmatched quality and comfort.
The styles we offer, ranging from tobacco brown smooth to pebbled chestnut brown, are not just varied but are imbued with a classic appeal that will stand the test of time.
The full-grain leather, the 1" leather-wrapped straps, and the signature leather strap joint are all about balancing durability with comfort. The soft midsole with built-in arch support, coupled with a chevron pattern nonslip outsole, ensures that your feet remain comfortable and well-supported throughout the day.
Our sustainable and responsible approach ensures that with proper care, your sandals will continue to serve you well, year after year, only getting better with age.
The story behind our sandals is as unique as the sandals themselves, rooted in a family-owned business with a heart for maintaining Southern tradition and elegance through superb craftsmanship.
