This ankle-high shoe is comfortable all round. This starts with the soft leather upper with its robust, rough surface and striking Used look. The lacing runs through eight pairs of metal eyelets, allowing the shoe to adapt to the shape of the individual foot. The crepe sole made from natural rubber provides good cushioning. Finally, the typical Astorflex "ideal seam" makes the shoe more flexible and thus increases wearer comfort even further. The insole is removable. It can be replaced with your own insoles if required.

The beginnings of Astorflex date back to the 19th century. After the First World War, the descendants of the shoemaking family founded the company "Fratelli Travenzoli" in Castel d'Ario, a small shoemaking town in the province of Mantua (Lombardy). From then on, the Travenzolis specialized in making shoes using the "ideal method", in which a visible seam joins the upper material to the insole, making the shoes particularly flexible, hard-wearing and durable. Today, the fate of Astorflex lies in the hands of Fabio Travenzoli, who consistently uses high-quality natural materials in production. First-class Italian leather is used for the uppers, in particular from master tanneries in Tuscany. The lining and insoles are made of soft calfskin, vegetable-tanned in a decoction of oak bark and mimosa. The outsoles are mainly made of natural rubber and only water-based adhesives are used. Astorflex has dedicated itself entirely to "good shoes", as the addition "La scarpa buona" in the shoe manufacturer's logo promises.
