##Handcrafted in Italy Located in Corridonia, Italy is a small family owned and operated atelier that has been making exceptional footwear with a focus on quality and construction since 1905. Excellence in shoemaking has been an obsession and never-ending quest that has spanned three generations of this family. As skills are passed from generation to generation there is an insistence to remain in-touch with developments in technology to ensure that both worlds, old and new are always respected in order to achieve the highest quality, most comfortable and longest lasting purpose built shoes. Currently led by the granddaughter of the founder, it was clear from our first interaction that this team of masters fully understood our raison d'etre at Archibald and relished an opportunity to work with us and allow more people to experience the difference their expertise and craft can make in terms of end-product.

Craftsmanship

##The finest Australian Kangaroo hide is selected by our tannery in Montegranaro, Italy. Kangaroo leather consists of fine collagen fibres that are concentrated, highly uniform and run parallel to the surface of the skin.These attributes give it a higher tensile strength than other skins, which is why motorcyclists seek it out when choosing their protective leathers. It's also uniquely airy on account of a thin grain layer and naturally low fat content, in addition to its lack of sweat glands and arrector pili muscles.

White kangaroo leather with a white sole is the purest expression of the SF-01 v3.5 in K-leather — a fully clean, minimal silhouette in one of the most remarkable leathers available. The softness is immediate, the durability exceptional.

The SF-01 was created for the Styleforum community by its members. Through multiple iterations and community feedback — including detailed reviews by Rose Anvil — the design has been continuously refined toward the goal of creating the world's best minimalist sneaker.

The v3.5 replaced the cushioned insole with a natural coconut fibre insole with leather lining — an upgrade that delivers superior performance for daily wear. Coconut fibre offers exceptional breathability, natural moisture-wicking properties, and antibacterial benefits that synthetic cushioning cannot match. Unlike foam-based insoles that compress and lose their structure over time, coconut fibre maintains its integrity while moulding to your unique foot shape, improving comfort with every wear.

Handmade in Corridonia, Italy.
