Astorflex

Afredo Travenzoli and his brother Bettino took over a business passed down through their family for centuries. In fact, at the beginning of the 19th century in Castel D’ario (Mantova) in Northern Italy, is when they first started making handmade footwear with leather uppers. Over the years different techniques were perfected, including their famous Astorflex Greenflex Desert boots; styled after the classic desert chukka boots favored by WWII-era soldiers. Over the years they’ve graced the feet of icons like Steve McQueen, and their timeless style means you’ll still spot them on celebs and fashion-conscious men and women today.
