The Gardiane Basket
A creation where the authenticity of French leather meets a clean, contemporary design. We offer you a sneaker conceived and designed to be not only comfortable and practical, but also rooted in a sustainable approach. Designed with clean lines, as a tribute to quality, comfort, and durability, it symbolizes the perfect harmony between traditional craftsmanship and contemporary aesthetics.
Our suede calfskin leathers are crafted by a renowned Italian tannery specializing in suede. All of these leathers are treated with a color-blocking finish, ensuring perfect color retention and preventing any contamination of textiles that may come into contact with the leather (trousers, dresses, etc.). This tannery also works with leading luxury brands. They carefully select their raw materials, guaranteeing a high-quality finished product in compliance with EEC/REACH standards. The suede calfskin leathers from this tannery are characterized by a hair that is neither too long nor too coarse, giving them a supple and rounded feel.
Each pair is meticulously cut, stitched, and pampered in our workshop, with the sole assembly carried out by a trusted French subcontractor, perhaps anticipating a future acquisition of machines to bring this step back into our own workshops.
OUR Atelier La Botte Gardiane is located in the Gard region of France. It has been recognized as a Métier d'Art (Craftsmanship) workshop since 2016 and we hold the label. French Living Heritage Company since 2007
