CUSTOMIZATIONS
Fit
- First Time Order: from the comfort of your home, step in and out of BIO-FOAM® precision foot molds, engineered and made by Smithers Bio-Medical Systems in Kent, Ohio. Our comprehensive foot shape acquisition process allows us to obtain an exact replica of each individual foot up to 2 inches above the ankle bones, including its volume, dimensions, fitting preferences, and elasticity indexes throughout different areas of your feet to arrive at a proper fitting pair of shoes or boots.
- Reorder Using Your Stored Last: we maintain your personal bespoke lasts within our private archive in Italy, to ensure every subsequent pair delivers the same fit as your first.
Sole Construction
- Cemented: the sole is attached to the upper part of the shoe using cement.
Sole Material
- Vibram Rubber: sole known for its consistent quality of traction, durability and comfort. Adds an extra 4 mm to the thickness of the sole.
Color
- Current: as illustrated in the image/images.
- Custom: if you would like this order made in a color from a different model from our website, please write the name of the model and color in the Order Notes section.
UPPER LEATHER
Hermès D’Annonay Box Calf
Sourced from the historic Tanneries d’Annonay (founded in 1838 and part of the Hermès Group), this A-grade full-grain calfskin is the standard for all our calfskin footwear. Renowned for its balance of suppleness and structure, this Box Calf leather develops a unique patina and character over time.
TOE BOX SHAPE
Based on your foot shape, we design a few custom toe box shapes for you to choose from.
ORTHOTIC INTEGRATION
For clients who utilize personal orthotics or specialized insoles, our foot shape acquisition process captures the precise volume and topography of your inserts. This data allows us to engineer the exact internal capacity required for both your feet and your orthotics to ensure a seamless fit within your bespoke footwear.
Furthermore, we meticulously recalibrate the leather pattern around the heel and ankle to accommodate the additional elevation. This anatomical adjustment prevents heel slippage and maintains a secure hold regardless of the insole's thickness.
THE BESPOKE LAST
Your purchase includes the creation of your personal bespoke lasts, carved from your unique anatomical data. These forms serve as the foundation for all future orders and are stored in our archive in Italy for your convenience. If you prefer to own the physical lasts, they are available for purchase via this link.
Complimentary Lifetime Adjustments
As your anatomy matures, your archived bespoke lasts remain a living record of your needs. We offer complimentary anatomical refinements to your lasts with every new order, ensuring your signature Bondeno fit remains constant, even as time passes. Your personal lasts are securely preserved in our Italian archive for all future creations.
