##Fabriqué à la main en Italie Situé à Corridonia, en Italie, se trouve un petit atelier familial qui fabrique des chaussures exceptionnelles avec un accent sur la qualité et la construction depuis 1905. L'excellence en cordonnerie est une obsession et une quête sans fin qui s'étend sur trois générations de cette famille. Alors que les compétences se transmettent de génération en génération, il y a une insistance à rester en phase avec les évolutions technologiques pour s'assurer que les deux mondes, ancien et nouveau, sont toujours respectés afin d'atteindre la plus haute qualité, les chaussures les plus confortables et les plus durables. Actuellement dirigé par la petite-fille du fondateur, il était clair dès notre première interaction que cette équipe de maîtres comprenait parfaitement notre raison d'être chez Archibald et saisissait l'opportunité de travailler avec nous et de permettre à plus de personnes de découvrir la différence que leur expertise et leur savoir-faire peuvent faire en termes de produit final.

Craftsmanship

Un cuir de cerf grenu non doublé, d'une souplesse luxueuse et tanné en Italie, est utilisé pour former la tige merveilleusement déstructurée, qui est ensuite cousue à une semelle ultra-légère fabriquée en Italie.

Le cuir de cerf offre une expérience incomparable — un mélange unique de confort, de protection et de longévité dès le premier port. Le cuir plus souple et non doublé s'adapte à votre pied presque immédiatement et offre un niveau de confort inégalé. Les semelles fabriquées en Italie sont d'un confort exceptionnel et complètent le choix de construction des sneakers — strobel — qui maintient la paire incroyablement flexible, réduisant toute tension sur le pied. Enfin, pour couronner le tout, nous avons sélectionné une semelle intérieure amovible unique et confortable, doublée de cuir et fabriquée en fibres de noix de coco.

Footwear>Sneakers>The ULTRALight Sneakers in Pebbled Deerskin

  • Handmade in Corridonia, Italy
  • Upper: Hand-cut Deerskin
  • Construction: Strobel
  • Unisex
  • High-grade lightweight "XL" soles, Made in Italy
  • Total weight per pair (example): size 48 - 686g, size 42 - 562g, size 36 - 472g
  • Unique leather-lined coconut fibre removable in-soles
  • Use a horsehair brush to remove any dust
  • Polish in small circles with a cotton cloth to restore a soft shine

Black — the original ULTRALight in pebbled deerskin, a tonal black with an Italian-sourced lightweight sole. The natural pebbled grain gives the black surface subtle depth, and the unlined construction means the deerskin moulds to your foot from day one.

The accident that became your favourite product. The ULTRALight was conceived in the aftermath of the SF-01 v2. We enlisted the help of the other family of Italian artisan shoemakers (who fortunately later took over our entire programme), and after studying our final submission for the v2, they suggested some improvements and also that we make a version with a Strobel construction (for comfort and flexibility) and an extra-light sole instead — it sounded interesting and when the first sample arrived it blew our minds. The artisans had altered the silhouette to make it sleeker than the SF-01 and R happened to say, "you know these sort of feel like ultra-luxury converse chucks, but something is missing" and then came his one (only) inspired moment "get rid of the lining, lets go unlined and unstructured".

The final sample arrived three weeks later, and the rest is history... it’s a pair that becomes an instant favourite of everyone who has worn it.

The ULTRALight sneakers are handmade in Corridonia, Italy by a specialist family of craftsmen. The upper is handcut from an unbelievably soft but durable, unlined deerskin before it is attached to an Italian-sourced, incredibly lightweight sole via a Strobel construction which gives the shoe an unbelievably comfortable, light, and cooling wear.

The worst part of your day is when you have to take them off.

Product Material

A luxuriously supple Italian-tanned unlined pebbled deerskin is used to form the wonderfully unstructured upper which is then stitched to an Italian-made, ultralight sole.

Deerskin promises an experience like no other - a unique blend of comfort, protection, and longevity from the moment you wear them. The softer, unlined leather acclimates to your foot almost immediately and provides an unparalleled level of comfort. The Italian-made soles are outstandingly comfortable and complement the choice of construction on the sneakers - strobel - which keeps the pair incredibly flexible, reducing any strain on the foot. Finally, to top it all off, we have selected a unique and comfortable removable leather-lined insole made of coconut fibers.

How they measure up to the others... Let's come clean here!

The next time you pay for something, we politely invite you to think about what you have actually paid for... We spend more on our product, and sell it for less. Less advertising, less overheads, less fluff... just simple, great product.
