Defeza Burgundy Defeza Grey

Our best-selling mid cut trainer is made from black veg tanned Garda leather from the Incas tannery, a premium calf leather with a non-uniform finish for a casual look. The retro style of the upper is often referred to as a ‘soccer toe’ - a pattern frequently used for professional sports shoes in the 60s and 70s, we have, however, included a full leather lining, cushioned leather insock and padded collar to bring it up to date. The natural gum rubber cupsole has a shallow cleat for additional grip, secured with a side stitch.
