SACCHETTO

the most authentic Italian shoemaking tradition

"Sacchetto" working method

The “sacchetto” working method is a technique which permits the manufacturing of particularly comfortable shoes. This working process according to the rules of the most authentic Italian shoemaking tradition involves up to two hundred steps requiring outstanding skilfulness, experience and competence. During the sewing stage, the full grain nappa lining is attached like a ‘sac’ along its edge permitting to build the shoe without rigid components such as the insole and the shankpiece. The shoe becomes lighter and allows the foot to move naturally.
