Description

Goodyear Welted construction achieves its strength, durability and repair qualities by sewing the upper leather, lining leather and welt (a specially prepared piece of leather) to the ribbing that has already been glued to the insole. The welt is then sewn to the leather or rubber sole. It’s this last point, which holds the sole in place, that we can cut to allow complete removal of the sole without damaging the upper.

Goodyear Welted construction is costly, time-consuming and requires highly skilled craftsmanship. Invented hundreds of years ago, it is still considered one of the best methods of shoe construction today.
