TLB Mallorca Oxford-291 ARTISTA

We present our new Artista 291 Oxford shoes made of black Boxcalf leather that offers a fantastic semi-formal look. An English model with a smooth toe, made of Boxcalf leather of French origin from the D’Annonay tannery in black. It incorporates our Goya last, a calf lining, inner insole and buttress made of vegetable-tanned leather, finished with a split-stitched sole floor to achieve a more elegant finish.

This model is made with a beveled waist sole and a tight stitching that continues below the heel, whose shape follows the natural line of the shoe. It is a one-piece model on the heel, a feature that gives it a more elegant design and an exceptional line.

For this model, we have chosen our Goga last in width F. Last with a slightly round toe, very elegant and comfortable fit. Handcrafted with the Goodyear Welted technique in our own factory in Inca, Mallorca, Spain. This manufacturing process, of more than 150 operations, consists of double stitching to join the leather, insole and sole, providing a level of durability much higher than that of a conventional shoe. This type of construction also provides extraordinary comfort and insulation thanks to the layer of natural cork, placed under the insole and which allows the insole of each of the shoes to mold and acquire the anatomy of each foot.

• Brush the shoe to remove any dust or dirt.
• Apply a small amount of Pâte De Luxe with a cotton chamois cloth or the Spreading Brush to reach the welt seams and enable nourishment and protection of this delicate area.
• Massage gently to allow Pâte De Luxe to nourish and provide maximum protection to the leather.
• Apply one or two coats of Pâte De Luxe to the entire shoe.
  Leave to dry for five minutes between coats.
• Gently polish the leather with a bristle brush or a wool glove.
• For a high-gloss finish, apply additional coats to the toe and heel. Avoid over-application to the vamp of the shoe because excessive movement can crack the wax coating.
