Family owned and operated since 1866, Carmina has a long tradition of skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail. Each pair has a leather midsole, a dovetail heel, and reinforcements at the toe and heel. The Goodyear welt allows the shoes to be resoled time and time again, while the channeled and beveled Rendenbach sole is supremely comfortable—so you can feel every bit as good as you look. And to keep your shoes in top condition, every order includes a pair of Carmina’s red velvet dust bags and sized shoe trees. Designed to help maintain shape, prevent creasing, and promote longevity, the shoe trees also wick moisture (and with it, odor) away from the leather. Made from beechwood, they’re fitted with knobs for easy removal.
