Thorocraft holds onto a solid and continuous commitment to four basic principles: craftsmanship, quality, durability, and comfort. All materials and fabrications are genuinely manufactured and hand-made in Vietnam and Italy in limited numbers. One of Thorocraft’s most recognized aspect is the stringent enforcement of quality control standards in every shoe manufactured. Thorocraft are thoroughly crafted.

The basic element in producing quality footwear is leather. Thorocraft leathers are of the finest grade available. Every inch of leather that’s chosen to be crafted into footwear is thoroughly inspected for durability and flexibility. After thorough inspection, premium grade leather hides are then hand cut and sorted into sections. They are then inspected once again for quality and consistency before reaching assembly. Being assembled, the leather sections are stamped, formed, and stitched together by hand. The craftsmanship and leather are then inspected against the highest of standards before being sent off to “lasting”. The boot truly begins to take shape at this point. The upper position is formed and shaped over a temporary “last”, which basically is replication of a foot. This allows the attachment of the insole. This, as with all the stages, is done primarily by hand. The attachment of the sole is the final crafting procedure. The term “bottomed” is achieved when our durable, long lasting, soles are permanently attached. As always, the shoe is then inspected for seasonal elements. The pre-finished shoe is then trimmed, cleaned, and treated. Each and every shoe is then hand inspected before being packaged. Thorocraft's final inspection, will double check every stitch to sole, to verify the completed product is of our highest standards of craftsmanship, quality, durability, and comfort.

Thorocraft is a line we ran into back in February and immediately wanted to make work at the new Still Life For Him & For Her locations. Sizing as a unisex, ultra-high quality leather footwear brand, Thorocraft has arrived this week in three styles - two For Him and one For Her.
