OUR WORKSHOP

Nestled in the Tuscan hills, the birthplace of luxury footwear, our workshop carries on a tradition passed down from generation to generation. Each pair is handcrafted there, using techniques mastered over decades, with a rare demand for leather quality and attention to detail.

Particularly appreciated for its unique landscapes, Tuscany also boasts a long tradition of handcrafted shoemaking. Tuscan artisans, renowned for their attention to detail and quality, have perfected their skills over centuries, and source high-quality leathers locally, perfect for high-end shoes.

In our workshop, each pair is handcrafted with great precision, with the aim of creating comfort and elegance. Every detail of the shoe is designed to adapt to women's feet and daily lives: the suppleness of the leather, the fineness and strength of the stitching, the arch and heel height.

Driven by a constant quest for modernity, we continually innovate in our workshops by developing new manufacturing techniques and integrating new materials into our collections.

For example, the sacchetto construction is a meticulous expertise that gives shoes extraordinary flexibility and lightness. Stretch leather, pioneered by Parallèle, adapts to every foot shape and perfectly hugs the silhouette for a second-skin effect that is as sculptural as it is comfortable.

"Parallèle is the result of a desire for simplicity, refinement, elegance, and timelessness."

These words from Alain Faure, founder of the brand in 1985, continue to resonate in our workshops today.
