Designed and produced by Novesta in Slovakia.
The manufacturing factories of Novesta date back to the 1930s, when the famous shoemaker Jan Antonín Baťa opened his new factory in a small town in the middle of Slovakia – in Partizánske. Novesta is one of the last purely European brands to remain operating in its original premises, working by the original method on good old-fashioned machines that require a great deal of precision handwork.
All packages are shipped with DHL from our store in Amsterdam, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
For small packages outside the EU, we use UPS Express Shipping and for big packages, we use PostNL (carries parcels over to local shipping companies).
Every pair is handmade from the finest VFCS-certified natural rubber from verified suppliers and GOTS-certified organic cotton uppers.
Natural rubber is a raw material that is mixed with chemicals to increase flexibility and durability, and then thoroughly kneaded with pigments for colouring. The carefully kneaded rubber is the keystone of the Star Master shoe, which doesn't peel away from the upper and has astonishing strength. The rubber is folded like croissant dough and cut into shapes such as soles and rubber boots.
You can use a water-repellent spray to make sure water won't damage your shoe. Clean stains with a damp cloth.
