HORSE WHITE LEATHER SNEAKER CL-2 HIGH CUT WHITE HIGH RUBBER SOLES PIECE DYED

HORSE WHITE LEATHER SNEAKER CL-2 HIGH CUT WHITE HIGH RUBBER SOLES PIECE DYED

A high-cut sneaker designed with narrow lace panels to deliberately reduce the visual presence of the lacing, allowing the leather itself to become the main focus.
Viewed from the front, the silhouette appears clean and streamlined, while the structure of the upper emphasizes the way the leather wraps naturally around the foot, creating a sculptural and three-dimensional expression.
The shoelaces are piece-dyed together with the sneakers, creating a cohesive finish in which the laces, leather, and overall color tone feel naturally integrated.

Materials & Craftsmanship
This footwear is made from vegetable-tanned white horse leather with a thickness of approximately 1.3–1.5 mm.
The leather is first oiled to prepare it for dyeing. After the shoes have been constructed, they undergo the piece-dyeing process, allowing the white base of the leather to interact with the dyes and oils and create a clear, layered color expression.
After dyeing, each pair is left to dry naturally over an extended period. During drying, each pair is carefully reshaped and adjusted by hand to restore the intended proportions and fit.
Once completely dry, the leather is oiled again and polished by hand, enhancing the depth, transparency, and individuality of the surface.
Because of the white base leather, subtle variations in tone and texture become more visible through the dyeing process, giving each pair a distinct character. With wear, the leather continues to develop greater depth and a more personal expression over time.
All finishing processes are carried out in-house and by hand.
