Van Bommel H Gira 04.12 Dark Brown H-Wijdte

Van Bommel Gira lace-up shoe for men in H-width (wide). This is a slim ankle boot from the Van Bommel collection. The shoe is made on a smooth classic last with an H-width. This width offers a wide fitting range and is suitable for an average to slightly wider foot. The authentic metal VB logo is hammered into the leather on the side of both shoes. The sole is made of vegetable tanned leather and finished with a wear-resistant rubber tread. The sole is mounted and stitched according to the Blake method. The tread of the heel is finished with a classic dovetail joint, two heel nails and hand-colored sole leather. The high-quality calfskin lining guarantees optimal moisture management in the shoe. This boat is made of dark brown calf leather that is colored by hand in our factory. This manual staining of each shoe creates a deep transparent color and gives the seams, stitching and perforation their characteristic hand-finished look.

Floris van Bommel about the Gira for men:

“With the rise of the sneaker as a casual shoe, the shoe world and shoe design gained momentum. At least... that's what you would think. We have extensive design books in our archives from our modellers from the beginning of the last century. Each book contains hundreds of design drawings for classic shoes. At that time, there was almost as much variation and experimentation in the classic segment as there is now with sneakers. The bandwidth for variation was smaller, so more attention was paid to minimal details. With the emergence of the 'Floris van Bommel' brand, there was room for our 'Van Bommel' brand to return to the pure core of a classic collection. Since then, we have been curating very critically and with a lot of love which styles do and do not fit within the classic 'Van Bommel'. Every detail matters much more than with a pair of trendy sneakers. The curvature of the last, the size of the stitch on the sole edge, the degree of shine of the leather, the hand feel of the calf lining, minute differences make or break the shoe. The 'Van Bommel' collection is a timeless extract from the almost 3 centuries that we have been making shoes with our company. If you decide to purchase a pair, enjoy the craftsmanship!'
