As told by CANFORA themselves....

THE SOLE

We make our sandals in exactly the same way as Amedeo Canfora did, when he first opened the shop in 1946: starting with the sole, made with various layers of Italian leather.
Inside the sole, an iron arch support preserves form and consistency. The various layers are pressed and sewn together: this is the feature which distinguishes Canfora’s sandals from the other, Capri-style, sandals on the market, in which the sole is glued and not sewn together.
To see the difference, all you need to do is to look at the bottom of a pair of sandals: when they have been glued, stitches are only visible on the top of the sandals, in Canfora’s sandals, stitches can also be seen underneath.
At this stage, the sole is practically eternal: the sandals maintain their form and consistency for years and are even rain resistant.

THE STRAPS

Straps, in 100% Italian calf or goat skin are attached to the soles.
Canfora’s sandals can be embellished with various accessories and decorative items. In all cases, only the finest Italian costume jewelry is used, thus guaranteeing maximum longevity. For us, it is important that the decorations last as long as the leather parts of the sandal, so that our customers will be able to wear their sandals summer, after summer, after summer.

We only want the best for you at Knuefermann by TK and we know these arrrrrreeeee!!!! Talk about making every outfit super luxe & polished !!! Who's excited??!!!

As pictured here the "K" Sandal, famous for being named after the first lady & style icon Jacki Kennedy who visited Canfora in 1962!
