About Quswa Wholecut Společenské boty

Model Quswa Wholecut je inspirován historickou bitvou u Badru a vyznačuje se ručně vyřezávanou arabskou šifrou „Calligxraphitti" na prémiové italské kůži. Návrhář Que Shebley vysvětluje: „Quswa Wholecut představuje sérii pěti designů, kde každý navazuje na původní šifru a symbolizuje klíčový okamžik bitvy." Každý pár je ručně malován technikou vrstvené patiny pro jedinečnou hloubku. Podrážka s broušeným pasem, uzavřeným kanálem a kovovými nárazníky na špičce dodává rafinovaný nádech aristokratické elegance.
