Seersucker beach shoe


This seersucker beach shoe worked out well for our customer El Ganso. I gave a pair to an old friend and he recently sent us a photo of him wearing them in Florence. Hope you like them.

Hot Rod Fiat 500

This was taken a couple of summers ago when Zsuzsi and I went to visit a shoe factory in Hungary to collect new samples for PLIMSOLL. Whatever this guy had done to this Fita 500 worked for us.

Hot press made shoes-the old way





This is the factory handling some of our pressed shoe range-PLIMSOLL, RED SOLE and models for You Must Create.

It is a bit technical but you will see the 'last' collection of sizes behind and the jaws of the hot press which compresses the natural rubber and details the outer of the shoe. We were lucky enough to get made up an insert which shows the name PLIMSOLL on the underside.

  • Just putting the final touches to the 1952 Velocette before going out for a ride with friends outside of Budapest. I changed my shoes from the tartan Tigra from El Ganso and put on a heavier boot for kick starting the Velocette

College shoe


I gave this tartan mid boot to a friend and she thought it best to adjust them to suit her style by changing the laces to a chocolate colour. At Tezla Shoes we love all that. Not sure about the socks though.
