Heritage Craftsmanship-Goodyear Welt

Goodyear welt construction is a method used in high-quality dress shoes that involves stitching the upper part of the shoe to a welt (a strip of leather or rubber), which is then stitched to the outsole. This method creates a durable, long-lasting shoe and provides several advantages over other types of shoe construction.

Here's a breakdown of the process:

1. Upper Construction: The upper part of the shoe (the part that covers your foot) is stitched to a leather or rubber welt. The welt has a small lip or ledge around its edge.

2. Sole Attachment: The welt is then sewn to the shoe's sole using a special stitch, creating a sturdy bond. The stitching typically goes through the upper, the welt, and the sole, which ensures a strong connection.

3. Durability: Because the welt is stitched to the upper and the sole, Goodyear welted shoes are highly durable and can be re-soled multiple times. This means the shoe can last for many years, as the sole can be replaced without affecting the structure of the rest of the shoe.

4. Water Resistance: The stitching and construction provide a good seal, making Goodyear welted shoes more resistant to water and moisture compared to other methods like Blake or cement construction.

5. Comfort and Fit: The process also allows for a more structured shoe that can mold to your foot over time, leading to better comfort and a more personalized fit.
