The A.S.98 Jasper celebrates the rough edges and imperfections that make us all genuine originals, and recognizes there is only one true arbiter of cool...you. Fine leathers come to life in the historic tanneries of Italy, iconic home of quality leather goods and materials. Leathers are tanned and treated by hand, a process that reveals the individual textures and characteristics that make each piece unique. Flexible metal, rivets, eyelets, studs chain, and zippers are a fraction of the details that add edge to the organic materials, and the marriage of these elements is the essence of our innovative and fearless style. Constructed by hand with unparalleled skill, by passionate and dedicated craftsmen in a family run factory. Employing elaborate needle work, leather weaving, and hand burnishing, these artisans leave their own impressions on each pair of shoes, ensuring exceptional quality, character and uniqueness.
