Satisfied Greek customer


Pavlos from Greece sent me this photo of Tigra Tartan bought from the El Ganso shop in Barcelona. We have been working on Jeremy Stanford for El Ganso the last 5 or 6 years coming up with interesting colour combinations, using a variety of fabrics and overseeing all aspects of production. I hope you like these as much as Pavlos.

New factory/New ideas

These basic models will need to have changes made to the fabric uppers, the soles however show great potential with the toe caps which many customers ask for.

This is the time of year in Hungary for pig killing

That means sausage, bacon and enough meat to last a Hungarian family through the winter, it also means a very early start in the morning and a fairly brutal technique with the sledge hammer when piggy is not looking.

Made in Europe-Classic Tigra Shoe

These are the ladies who handle the stitching of a large part of our shoe orders. Here I am checking the production as the shoes come out of the vulcanising chamber just before being wrapped in tissue paper and boxed up for shipment to Spain. This supplier is really very reliable.
