The outsole includes a leather half-midsole, thinned toward the toe, which creates a fluid appearance while simultaneously providing functionality that improves ground push-off during walking. The arch area of the sole is built up (fiddle back), and the edges are polished with a hot iron, transitioning from a flat edge to a rounded edge, enhancing both the sharpness of the look and the fit to the sole of the foot. The heel is a leather heel with an asymmetrical shape—the difference between the inside and outside is formed by manual carving. The sole is finished by driving in wooden pegs (nails) and polishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis model comes with a removable original insole, which plays a role in compensating for fit differences caused by the sinking of the midsole that occurs with wear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial \"Cordovan butt\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eThis original material includes the cordovan layer and the surrounding suede-like sections.
