Field notes

The homepage breaks production into four stages, from hide cutting to bottoming, and says the vamp is sewn with waxed linen thread at nine stitches per inch. It also describes sourcing hides from tanneries in Wisconsin, Illinois, and Chicago. Product prices and a two-to-three-week made-to-order turnaround are displayed; the sourcing and production details are the shop’s own account.
