DV054 is a hand made shoe with a modern design line. It is formed by two single-cut panels of leather fixed to each other with a jagged shape channel in patent leather stitched in between
The belts around the heel and top of the shoes are detachable whilst the straps across the toe are fixed
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

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 is made from rubber and EVA, whilst the body of the heel is made from layers of cut, trimmed and sanded leather sheets with a heel top in rubber, which are mounted onto a leather base to form the finished sole
Calfskin is a strong leather but like all leather products, they might become marked with wear and occasionally require maintenance
We would advise against the use of any cleaning products containing solvents, which might affect the surface finishing on the leather
Gently wipe the product with a soft damp cloth and allow to air dry away from direct heat
Avoid contact with liquids containing alcohol or solvents, as this will cause irreversible damage to the surface of the leather
Should be stored away from humidity and sources of heat
