Production Process
1. Material Selection
We source premium cow suede leather for the uppers, ensuring softness and durability. For the soles, we select long-lasting materials that provide comfort and functionality, perfectly matching the client's quality expectations.
2. Last Development
Our team develops custom shoe lasts to replicate the comfort of Birkenstock-inspired designs while meeting the client's specific branding requirements. This ensures ergonomic support and a distinctive identity for each pair.
3. Cutting & Stitching
Each suede panel is precisely cut and reinforced with meticulous stitching to ensure structural strength and visual consistency. Our skilled craftsmen pay attention to every detail to maintain the highest quality standards.
4. Assembly & Finishing
The uppers are carefully bonded to the soles, followed by suede brushing and edge treatment. Hardware installation completes the process, achieving a refined appearance that aligns with the client's streetwear-inspired design vision.
5. Quality Control
Every pair undergoes a 100% inspection process, including checks for suede uniformity, stitching accuracy, and overall craftsmanship. This rigorous quality control reflects our commitment to excellence and ensures customer satisfaction.
6. Packaging & Shipping
We use custom-branded protective packaging designed for both safety and visual impact. This attention to packaging details elevates the customer experience and ensures products arrive in pristine condition worldwide.
