What happens when a determined young man with clear ideas about what he wants to do when he grows up chases a dream for years? He makes that dream come true. This is what happened to Hasan Yates, born in 1985 in Atlanta, Georgia (USA), always with a passionate love for athletic shoes and unique products that he likes to wear to stand out. An enterprising young man who couldn’t help but turn that personal taste into something tangible, to share with those who, like him, love objects with character.
This is how the idea of creating Masculine Footwear was born, a brand of sport shoes characterized by a strong style. With the help and inspiration of his wife Shaterica, a line of leather shoes was born, entirely handmade by master craftsmen in the Italian shoe production district of excellence, such as the territory of the Marche region. Each pair of shoes is custom made, with a design that takes influences from the past to reinterpret it in a more contemporary key. The sneaker is characterized by the logo visible in the reinforced upper part of the shoe, the organic cotton laces, and the reinforced metal eyelets. Entirely in red leather with a detail in red suede on the top and full-gold sole. The shoe is paired with a fantastic collector’s packaging, with the designer’s logo, also handmade in Fabriano, Italy, with a magnetic closure. The shoes are for sale in limited edition, at this address www.aliveshoes.com/masculinefootwear
