Story A dapper desert boot handmade in Italy Astorflex dug out their Nuvoflex Suede Boot from the archives to celebrate 200 years of bootmaking excellence. Its suede leather upper is expertly vegetable-tanned: the oldest, most sophisticated, and most eco-friendly method of tanning. Handmade in Italy, stitchdown construction is used to attach the leather upper to grippy crepe rubber outsoles, resulting in a sturdy pair prepared to hold up against the elements—in timeless style, of course. Features Outsole is made of crepe rubber for comfort and reinforced with a layer of PVC for durability Vegetable-tanned leather is eco-friendly and free from harmful chemicals Insole can be detached to personalize your fit Stitchdown construction is more impervious to the elements Handmade in Italy Materials Vegetable-tanned suede leather upper Leather lining and insole Naturally sourced crepe rubber and PVC outsole SIZING US whole sizes only If you are in between sizes, we recommend sizing down Astorflex uses a European sizing system which we've converted to American sizes.

Nestled in the small Northern Italian town of Castel D’ario (Mantova) since the 19th century, Astorflex is a family endeavor that’s been elevating the shoe game for six generations. From suede desert boots to everyday leather chukkas, each custom style is handbuilt to the Travenzoli family’s legendary standards. In fact, when we first discovered their criminally underrated chukkas awhile back, they shipped each order with a box of pasta from their family-run restaurant! Basically, any shoemaker can put Italian leather on rubber soles and call it a day, but few can turn those same materials into a walking work of art. And that’s just what Astroflex does. For your next pair of go-tos, you’ve come to the right place.
