#1
Handcrafted Design in Menorca
From the moodboard to the last, every Mascaró shoe model is born at our headquarters in Menorca. Our design team transforms inspiration into unique sketches that set the trends for each season. We design women's shoes with style, comfort, and personality, paying attention to every detail from the first stroke.
#2
Selection of high-quality leather
The process of creating our handmade shoes in Menorca begins with a meticulous check of the leather. We only select premium quality materials, evaluating their texture, durability, and finish to ensure excellence in every pair. This phase guarantees that each model not only looks good, but also offers durability and comfort.
#3
Hand cut
At Mascaró, each pair of shoes begins with a hand-cut leather made by master craftsmen in our factory in Menorca. This traditional technique, which we have been perfecting for over 100 years, ensures precision and respect for the natural texture of each skin. We advocate for a manual process that keeps the essence of Spanish artisanal footwear alive.
#4
Handcrafted stitching
The process of hand-stitching is key in the construction of our shoes. The expert hands of our artisans assemble each piece with millimetric precision, ensuring that every seam provides strength, comfort, and beauty. This stage gives soul and structure to the shoe, merging tradition and excellence in each model.
#5
Molded and Assembled
In this crucial phase of handcrafted shoe manufacturing, our master craftsmen mold each shoe to the last with precision and expertise. Once the shoe acquires its perfect shape, the sole is hand-glued, ensuring durability, comfort, and quality.
Shoes made in Spain with passion and attention to detail.
#6
Final Review
Each pair of handcrafted shoes undergoes a rigorous final review, where the last adjustments are made: from manual polishing to the smallest finishes. This step ensures that the footwear reaches the customer with the highest standard of quality.
Perfection in every detail.
