Adiós Invierno
Blackouts? Record snow? We've seen the photos. We put together this group-made-to-order for those who are ready to say, "adios invierno" which is "goodbye winter" in English, and want something positive to look forward to later this year.
Our first shoe is our new Brossa Boot in box calf leather, a gorgeous new addition to our growing mid-cut boot offering.
Brossa is a six eyelet, brogued cap toe boot with an unlined shaft, subtle brogue accents on the facings, our duende embroidery along the heel shaft, and a handmade cognac patina which adds depth to the silhouette, seams, and brogues.
The shape of the heel shaft hugs the ankle and sweeps gracefully around the heel to the bottom of the heel block. We selected a comfortable Vibram Rubber Button Sole which adds cushion and a solid foundation for this impressive boot. They can be effortlessly paired with dress or casual attire.
Our second shoe is our new Madoz Medallion Oxford in box calf leather with brogue accents along the cap, facings, and heel collar.
Madoz is the first GMTO shoe that features our Barcino Medallion, an homage to the “Fuente Magica de Montjuic”, the famous fountain of Barcelona that stands guard in front of the National Palace.
We selected box calf leather in a slightly more conservative coffee which is a dark brown that tones down the brogues and medallion, but creates a dress shoe that is well balanced with personality.
Our third shoe is a unique version of our Mario Oxford. Mario is our classic quarter brogue oxford and a wardrobe staple that we offer in many colors and patinas.
For this version, we selected snuff suede from Charles Stead, a color that will work perfectly year round. The cream stitching highlights the elegant lines of our oxford and compliments the slightly more casual look of this suede dress shoe.
We chose a Vibram Button Sole which adds cushion and comfort and gives the design slightly more body. They'll work perfectly in any business casual environment or with your weekend wardrobe.
Our final shoe is our Eduardo Derby, the first single eyelet derby that Norman has designed for our Condal Collection, and a slightly more formal addition to our derbies.
Eduardo is a remarkably clean design that features a rounded toe, an exaggerated vamp with an elegantly elongated silhouette, and a leather sole hand painted in purple.
We chose our handmade Marron Mediterraneo patina, a versatile color that can be dressed up or down and works well with the blues and greys of work attire without screaming "boring".
Our Brossa Boot, Madoz Medallion Oxford, Mario Oxford in Suede, and Eduardo Derby are available in our Group-Made-to-Order through Tuesday, March 2nd.
All shoes are bench made, Goodyear-welted, and hand finished by our artisan team in Spain before shipment. This process includes the use of glass, sandpaper, inks, creams, waxes, fire and multiple iron tools to achieve a bespoke quality finishing that the Norman Vilalta brand has become known for.
We will accept a 50% deposit to place the order using the code GMTODEPOSIT during checkout. We will collect the balance before the final shipment of the shoes.
Please note that our MTO Fee Waiver is not applicable to GMTO shoes. If there are any changes that you would like made to these shoes (upper, lining, last, sole, and patina), a 200 euro change fee will be included.
