A Polish shoemaker’s atelier making one hand-welted men’s chukka boot, to the wearer’s measure, in a numbered series.

Field notes

The product is organized around a single last, a small selection of full-grain leathers, and customer measurements rather than a conventional catalog. Packaging is treated as part of the object: a dowel-and-nail wooden chest, raw-wool lining, linen wrapping, leather binding, wax seal, and numbered parchment tag. The page identifies the opening pair as No. 001—“The Return”—and says taken numbers will not be repeated.
