The Benefits of Hand-finished Shoes
One of the distinct features of our Ready Made Condal Collection is that each Goodyear-welted pair of men's shoes is hand-finished by our team of artisans before delivery.
Hand-finished shoes are shoes that are made using traditional, labor-intensive techniques, rather than being mass-produced using machines. Here are some benefits of hand-finished shoes:
-
Quality: Hand-finished shoes are often made with high-quality materials and construction techniques, which can result in a superior product compared to mass-produced shoes. At Norman Vilalta, we source our materials from known leather tanneries and suppliers.
-
Attention to detail: Because hand-finished shoes are made by skilled craftsmen, they are often more finely crafted and pay attention to detail. This can result in a better-fitting, more comfortable shoe.
-
Customization: Many hand-finished shoes are made to order, which means you can customize the fit, style, and materials to your preferences. At Norman Vilalta, we offer both made-to-order as well as ready made pairs.
-
Durability: Hand-finished shoes are made with a focus on durability and longevity, which means they may last longer than mass-produced shoes.
-
Uniqueness: Hand-finished shoes are often made in small quantities or as one-of-a-kind pieces, which means you are more likely to have a unique and exclusive product.
Overall, hand-finished shoes offer a combination of quality, attention to detail, customization, durability, and uniqueness, which can make them a worthwhile investment for those looking for a high-quality, unique, and long-lasting pair of shoes.
Each pair of our Goodyear-welted Condal Collection Shoes are carefully hand-finished by our team or artisans in our Barcelona workshop before delivery.
