The design of Boté A Mano shoes is inspired by the geometrical patterns of the Persian architecture. The sharp cuts , the parallel lines and the iconic triangle shape on the posterior of the shoes are the direct representation of this architecture. Yet the simplicity of forms are aimed to accentuate the historical fabrics that are used on Boté A Mano shoes. Every fabric has a symbolic design and is chosen to unfold the cultural history & traditions of different tribes in the ancient Persia and its neighboring countries. Bote A Mano shoes are handcrafted in Italy at the brand’s atelier in Civitanova-Marche with historical fabrics inspired by the Persian art.
Every hisorical fabric used on Boté A Mano shoes, is hand-woven with silk and was traditionally used exclusively on Persian royal’s outfits or traded as a valuable goods along the Ancient Silk Road.
