ASTORFLEX
Eco-friendly shoes. Made in Italy.
Astorflex was founded by Fabio Travenzoli ¬in the beginning of the 19th century. Until today, the family business produces their typical shoe, with rubber sole and visible outer seam, in the north of Tuscany.
SUSTAINABILITY PAR EXCELLENCE - LEATHER, NATURAL RUBBER AND WATER-BASED ADHESIVES
The lining and insoles are made of naturally tanned calfskin. Their unique dye is obtained by soaking it in a mixture of water, powdered oak bark and mimosa, without using any kind of stamping or coloring. This process makes the leather healthy, eco-friendly and ensures a sustainable and contemporary consumption. Most of the outsoles Astorflex´ uses are made of organic rubber, deriving from the natural Latex of the rubber Tree. The various shoe parts are then joined together with water-based adhesives. In difficult times like these, we are more than happy to add ASTORFLEX as a brand to our portfolio! ASTORFLEX combines traditional, sustainable production - MADE IN ITALY – serving the contemporary needs of a modern, urban and design-oriented consumer.
