How a pair is made
Eight stages, one continuous conveyor line. This is how a style moves from pattern to packed carton in our Bhiwandi factory.
-
Stage 1 of 8Design and pattern making
Every style starts as a sketch and a set of patterns. Our design team turns your brief or tech pack into graded patterns ready for cutting.
-
Stage 2 of 8Material checks and cutting
Uppers, linings and reinforcements are inspected on arrival, then cut to pattern so every component matches the approved sample.
-
Stage 3 of 8Upper stitching
In our stitching hall, flat-bed and post-bed machines assemble the uppers. Seams, stitch density and alignment are checked in line.
-
Stage 4 of 8Lasting
Toe-lasting and heel seat lasting machines pull each upper tightly over its last, giving the shoe its final shape and fit.
-
Stage 5 of 8Sole attaching
On the conveyor line, soles are bonded and pressed to the lasted uppers for a strong, even attachment.
-
Stage 6 of 8Finishing and branding
Pairs are cleaned, finished and branded, including pad printing of logos and size marks.
-
Stage 7 of 8Final inspection
Each pair is checked for fit, finish, bonding, symmetry and labelling before it moves to packing.
-
Stage 8 of 8Packing and dispatch
Pairs are boxed and cartoned to your specification and dispatched to your distribution centres on schedule.
