The Goodyear SF-01 Sneakers in Horween Shell Cordovan

The ultimate sneaker they said... that was the objective.. We thought we had done it with the SF-01 v3, and in some ways, we might have. But if we are speaking of the next level of a product here - then there was one step left to go... the forever sneaker. Attempted by many, never quite perfected - a sneaker inspired by dress shoes, complete with a construction that allows it to be re-soled and allows for the upper to remain useful far beyond the Margom cup sole which cushions it. The forever sneaker also needed an upper made of something quite special; something that will last forever - a forever leather if you will... Horween Shell Cordovan. After months of research and exploration, we found our answers in a small workshop in Corridonia, Italy (in the Marche region) where a master artisan has developed an aesthetically pleasing Goodyear construction for sneakers that has allowed us to make it real. What this means is that the construction follows modified patterns of the famed Goodyear construction method so that the upper is attached in a way that protects it and removes the need for the use of glue when attaching the sole which can be changed when required. This special limited edition pair comes with one added set of coloured Margom cup-soles included so that when they are ready to be re-soled, the soles are ready and most able cobblers will be able to complete the process with ease.
