Van Bommel H Volta 07.02 Cognac H-Wijdte

“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!'
