The finest Budapest men's shoes from Germany's most exclusive men's shoe brand - masterfully handcrafted since 1879.
Two brands, one passion
Visit nowElegant women’s ankle boot in brandy-coloured soft calf leather with practical zipper and elegant hand finish. Goodyear-welted and handcrafted, this shoe features a Vibram sole that provides additional support and protects the fine leather sole.
These simple and simultaneously elegant women’s ankle boots get by entirely without conspicuous decorations. No. 2352 distinguishes itself with its graceful appearance thanks to its vegetable-tanned leather and Goodyear-welted design, a form of craftsmanship that is centuries old and regarded as the most prestigious form of shoe production world-wide.
A special feature of the soft calf leather used for these shoes is the vegetable-tanning process it undergoes, which gives the leather its intense colouring. In this particular case, an elaborate hand finish gives the saturated brandy tone a striking visual depth. It also provides the intentional antique-look of the leather upper, particularly the darker toe and heel caps.
The lining, insole and heel consist of premium cowhide and enhance the breathability of these Goodyear-welted women’s shoes. The only decoration is the subtle seam on the outside of the shaft. The zipper is on the inside of the ankle boot and makes taking the shoe on and off much easier.
The fine leather sole is equipped with an additional non-slip Vibram sole in the forefoot area. This rubber sole provides additional support, even on smoother surfaces, and makes these ankle boots ready for a variety of weather conditions.
Boots with a short shaft that only extends three to five centimetres above the ankle. These boots are sturdier than their classic low-rise counterparts. Ankle boots offer greater protection for feet during inclement weather conditions.
Our French Last is defined by a narrowly tapered front section and a comfortably wide midfoot area. Energetic and feminine, this elegant last is suitable for both average-width and narrow feet.
Our soft calf leather is a predominantly vegetable-tanned, fully dyed leather upper from Italy whose open porosity makes the colours of subsequently applied dyes really pop. An elaborate hand finish makes this soft calf leather even more exquisite. One-of-a-kind in our collection.
The soft calf leather is dyed in the Italian tannery, but it is the intense leatherwork done by hand in the factory, called a hand finish, that creates the thrilling contrasts and shadows that give this soft calf leather its unique look.
The gold standard when it comes to shoe manufacturing. Goodyear welting is a painstaking process that involves stitching the shaft and outsole to a thin strip of leather. Shoes made this way are extremely stable, durable, breathable, and easy to repair.
Mass-produced shoes are glued together on assembly lines. All of our premium, full-leather shoes, on the other hand, are handcrafted to the finest standards of quality. You can see and feel the difference.
The high quality of these shoes is reflected in their high leather content. Their uppers, lining, insoles, and outsoles are made from the finest leather. They even have leather heels, made by painstakingly stacking thin layers of leather on top of one another.
These shoes consist of roughly 65 separate parts. They took about 210 steps to assemble. We rely upon premium materials and traditional production methods to ensure that our footwear is of the absolute highest quality.
These shoes come equipped with a so-called "gentleman's corner". This is a small notch cut from the inside corner of the heel. This has a practical purpose—it prevents your trouser leg from catching on your shoe.
This shoe boasts a high proportion of leather, and has been assembled without the use of adhesive bonding—both of these factors ensure proper air circulation and prevent moisture from penetrating the surface. Dry, well-ventilated feet are healthy feet.
Of course, our focus is on your new pair of shoes. But to underline our passion for our products, we enclose a few extras in your shipment. We hope that sparks your excitement about your new footwear.
Our passion for our products is reflected in their packaging. All of our shoes come in an elegant black shoebox emblazoned with the SHOEPASSION.com logo. Said shoebox is easy to open, thanks to a special opening on the side, and comes with a note on our philosophy.
These shoes come stored inside two shoe bags, packed into a shoebox. Shoe bags are a great way to maintain their condition—they protect your footwear from soiling and scratching. They also let you transport your shoes in style.
Goodyear-welted shoes last far longer than mass-produced models. A dedicated cleaning and care routine is an indispensable part of keeping your shoes in mint condition. An introductory guide to shoe care is included with your order.
SHOEPASSION - ONE STEP FURTHER
While most of our peers in the shoe industry are still unable to guarantee shoes that are »made in the EU«, we’re able to prove that our shoes are just that. We use leather from France and Germany, manufacture our shoes in Spain, and run distribution and logistics in Germany—our shoes are 100% made in Europe.
For many companies, all that matters are the profits; they fail to take notice of the disastrous conditions under which hides are taken in Bangladesh, or shoes are manufactured in China. We turn instead to traditional European tanneries and Spanish craftsmanship, to the benefit of man and nature alike.
Our promise: since you’re purchasing directly from the manufacturer, you’re spared the typical high margins. You’re also spared the additional cost of paying for a brand name. Thanks to our advantageous wide reach and our low cost structure, we’re able to offer sensationally low prices.
From the provenance and treatment of the leather we use, to the conditions in our Spanish factory, to delivery with our logistics partner, we don’t leave any stone unturned. We provide copious, transparent information on every step in our supply chain.
SHOEPASSION.com was founded by a pair of shoe lovers, and each and every employee focuses on satisfying our shoe-loving customers. Whether it’s graphic design, sales, marketing, editorial, or customer service, we handle all aspects of our business internally, ensuring our total control over all processes. We’re also owner-managed.

Lots of brands are quick to conceal the production methods behind their products, as well as the origins of the materials they use. We, on the other hand, have nothing to hide. From the very beginning, our products have been »Made in the EU«, in the classic sense. As such, we treat both our fellow man and the natural environment in a way that’s ecologically sustainable and ethically responsible. Each step on our supply chain is entirely transparent for you to see—that’s a promise we’re happy to stand by.
