When it comes to treating leather, you just can’t beat vegetable tanning. This time-honored (and time-consuming!) process creates leather products that are particularly thick and durable using only natural and biodegradable materials such as the wood and bark of the Chestnut, Acacia, and Quebracho trees.
Like many FEIT shoes, the Hand Sewn Low is comprised of low-pile English suede that was treated by a group of small, family-owned European tanneries that employ traditional vegetable tanning techniques. Passed down for generations, these techniques produce shoes that are soft, non-irritant, and resistant to sweat and odor (allowing you to wear FEIT shoes sockless without fear).
A high-end boutique take on the classic court sneaker, the Hand Sewn Low is held together by FEIT’s advanced Goodyear construction, which facilitates easy resoling. Manufactured by hand, each shoe presents its own uniquely raw, unlined edges. The FEIT Hand Sewn Low comes with a stylish shoebox and canvas carry bag.
