The design can be far-out or conservative but without quality materials our feet don\u2019t stand a chance.<br \/>\nA <strong>naturally treated leather<\/strong>, with water based, solvent-free dyes that do not block up the material\u2019s pores so your feet can breathe much easier. In the milling process, the leathers are continually moved and subjected to heat which helps to break the fibres making them smooth, soft and manageable. Moreover, the tanning process is semi-vegetable (in some sections its 100% vegetable!), which means that heavy metals like chrome are not used so they are ideal for anyone who is allergic to this type of component.<br \/>\nFor better shoe care, all the leathers from our collection are treated with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scotchgard.com\/wps\/portal\/3M\/en_US\/NAScotchgard\/Global\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Scotchgard <\/strong><\/a>waterproof stain protection.
