Questions
Stitch-down,
answered.
How is the seam kept even?
Alignment references are marked before stitching, and upper-passing teams check stitching and alignment against the approved product.
Will the look hold from sample to production?
Our pattern, lasting and stitching specialists work with your selected materials and sole, so the character of the design carries from sample to manufacture.
