Why do my custom shoes feel different than the original model?

After the customization, the shoe will feel different on your feet, an air filled sole has much more bounce than a rubber or leather and cork sole. Over time, the soles will become more supple. If you are not used to walking on leather soles, it will take some time to get used to.

What is the name of the dog I have seen on your Instagram stories?

His name is Bear.

Why is the natural leather becoming darker?

We call this process the “ageing of leather”, the leather will develop a patina. Over time, the natural leather on your shoes will gradually change from beige to a beautiful, rich brown. This process is normal and nothing to be concerned about.
