My Life's Work

Armando Cabral

Our life’s work is more than what we make, it’s how we make it. The stories, the people, the pride that come with a passion for creating. For our first volume in this ongoing series, we’re inspired by Armando Cabral, whose journey, dedication and style are notable in the relentless pursuit of his craft. Global citizen, philanthropist, father and renowned shoemaker in his own right, we got to know one another through our shared love of footwear.


As makers, we continuously look for inspiration in our never-ending pursuit of handcrafting beautiful shoes, and we found that in ARMANDO CABRAL.
