These shoes are complex and heavy. The Goodyear welt method is a complex and heavy method of construction. The term “Goodyear” is derived from Charles Goodyear, the inventor of the shoemaking machine in the late 19th century, and from the thin leather (welt). It is a traditional method used in the manufacture of high quality shoes.
The sole of the shoe is sewn together with the welt and the sole is sewn around the sole.
The advantage of this method is that it allows the shoe to be filled to the brim, making it less tiring to walk for long periods of time. They feel stiff at first, but as you wear them, the filling conforms to the shape of your foot, giving you a better fit. The fact that the soles can be changed again and again makes them even more attractive. The sturdiness of the construction, the familiarity, the stability of the fit and the taste of the heavy design.
