Manufacturing

Wearing a pair of handmade shoes of natural leather is a conscious choice, appreciation of craftsmanship and the quality. Conhpol since 40 years, being a producer of footwear, puts on reliability, hard work and commitment, transforming the handwork into art. Everything starts with creativity. Through an idea transferred to paper and then the choice of materials and cooperation employees become a ready product that can reach your hand.

The skins what we used for the production of footwear are only of European origin (mainly Italian and Polish), which meets stringent European standards. We use only the highest quality outer skins: cow, calf, goat and exotic (crocodile, python, ostrich, kangaroo) with the necessary CITES certificates, which prove authenticity and legality. Soles are made of leather, and plastics: the so-called thunit, real rubber and modern, durable and ultra-light EVA.
