- DV002 is a hand-made hybrid shoe. Its construction is based on an oxford style fused with a derby outer layer, a Vanassibara trademark
- The upper is 100% made from nubuck leather. The upper is treated with a special polish finishing to create a beautiful dark dégradé near the sole
- The accents are made from rosewood, a tropical hard wood of the highest natural durability and resistance to decay. Our rosewood comes from a sustainable plantation. Each component is entirely hand-carved by some of the world’s best wood artisans from Java. The base curvature of each piece follows the natural angles of the foot and their various sizes are made in proportion to the size of the shoe
- The rosewood accents are permanently attached onto the outer layer that remains free for a comfortable walking
- The sole was engineered with a pronounced angle at the front base, which we call toe spring. A high toe spring, specially in thicker soles, has a major benefit: it greatly helps walking as there is no need to bend the foot as much because the shape of the sole does that for you. As a result you will feel less tired and you will enjoy a more relaxed walk
- This approach will prevent the leather from creasing like a classic shoe
- DV002 is entirely lined in super soft calfskin leather
- Vanassibaras will never smell unpleasant. Our shoes are mounted on a breathable raw leather insole which naturally absorbs excessive sweat from the feet. That’s an old technique that only true luxury brands can afford
- The sole is actually hand-made too. The plateau and the heel are made from layers of cut, trimmed and sanded leather sheets, which are mounted onto a leather base to form the finished sole
- Nubuck leather is resistant to wear and is soft to the touch
- Due to its manufacturing process of sanding and buffing, nubuck has a lovely velvet-like surface that requires more attention than regular leather
- To avoid stains from liquids and dirt, we recommend the use of a leather protective spray that helps to keep dirt away and serves as a water repellent
- We also recommend to wear your nubuck shoes only in dry conditions
- Gently wipe the product with a soft damp cloth and allow to air dry away from direct heat
- Should be stored away from humidity and sources of heat
