The shoe of the 50th anniversary for him: the Flex Goodyear Monk Strap
Elegant, but out of classic ranges: the Monk Strap is a timeless shoe in Fabi’s history. It was the shoe that Eliso Fabi dreamed of when the International Maison as we know it today was still far from being created; when the possibility of having to employ 344 specialists of footwear, including master shoemakers and craftsmen, was not even contemplated.
Today a mono-buckle monk represents the first 50 years of his company. A shoe embellished by the exclusive details (such as the silver buckle) and by the best manufacture designed by Fabi: the Flex Goodyear stitch(Fabi patent).
Lightweight and flexible, comfortable and tailoring thanks to the self-modeling sole, the Flex Goodyear is the result of a long experience in traditional footwear production (the workflow includes 102 craft steps) combined to a constant quest for technical perfection.
The appointment with the Spring-Summer 2016 Made in Italy fashion footwear and with Fabi’s 50th anniversary celebrations is at MICAM 1-4 on September 2015.
