If you are all about designer styles and especially shoes for men, Mauri shoes need to be considered to be added to your shopping list. For those who are long time fans of alligator shoes and crocodile shoes, Mauri has developed a huge following with their ever changing designer styles that look like no other alligator shoes out there. These shoes aren’t just Italian in style but are actually made in Italy as well.
What makes Mauri shoes the best when it comes to alligator shoes is both complex and yet simple at the same time. The quality that you find in each and every pair of shoes they make are completely hand made by long time skilled Italian shoe makers that are simply second to none. The Italian men and women who hand create these fine Italian alligator shoes have been working their trade for dozens of years. Because these are high end luxury shoes made of very expensive alligator and crocodile skins, they need to have that veteran status of experience because one small slip of the cutting blade or sewing needle will ruin an extremely expensive skin that will become a loss for Mauri. That is why they only use veteran shoe makers to create their find hand made luxury shoes. Everything about these shoes are made by hand from the stylish alligator skin uppers, to the full leather linings and insole to the hand carved and cut full leather soles and heels. Those are all the hallmarks of fine hand made shoe that you just won’t find on cheap mass produced factory shoes. It takes very long time to make a pair of Mauri shoes in comparison to a pair of say Stacy Adams shoes. Where Stacy Adams can make a thousand pairs of shoes per day. Mauri will be able to churn out about 50 pairs of shoes a day. It’s one of the reasons why they cost as much as they do.
One thing that you will certainly notice about Mauri shoes is their original styles. Their design team are usually fresh Italian design graduates who have fresh ideas in their heads ready to put on paper and Mauri hires them for this specific reason of creating really unique and original styles that you just don’t see anywhere else on any other brand of alligator shoes. Twice a year when the new styles are created, Mauri’s design team are pretty much given a free pass on creating new styles of shoes. The designer make take certain fashion trends of shoes and tweak them giving them a completely new Mauri style look that doesn’t look anything like the original fashion trend to begin with. It’s sort like when a famous artist takes an older song and completely remakes it into something that sounds like he wrote the song to begin with. That is precisely what the Mauri team of designers do each season to create the new collection.
Since Mauri shoes are only made in one factory in Italy, keeping a consistent fit makes it easier for them than many other shoe brands that are made in several factories. The reason is because all Mauri shoes are made on the same shoe lasts. Lasts are the wooden foot forms that shoe factories use to make shoes and give them both their size and shape. If you try on a size 10 in one style and size 10 in completely different style, they will both fit exactly the same and reason for this the shoe lasts used were exactly the same. With other brands. since the shoes are made in different factories and even different countries, the shoe lasts will be completely different and that is why they suffer from severe size inconsistency. A size 10 in one shoe will not fit the same as a that size 10 in another style because the shoes were made in a completely different factory which is not going to happen with a pair of Mauri shoes. Size consistency is what makes buying Mauri shoes online easy without trying them on because once you know your shoe size, one style is going to be the same as the next style. It makes shopping for Mauri shoes a pleasure.
