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.

  1. Design and pattern making
    Stage 1 of 8

    Design 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.

  2. Material checks and cutting
    Stage 2 of 8

    Material checks and cutting

    Uppers, linings and reinforcements are inspected on arrival, then cut to pattern so every component matches the approved sample.

  3. Upper stitching section

    Upper stitching

    In our stitching hall, flat-bed and post-bed machines assemble the uppers. Seams, stitch density and alignment are checked in line.

  4. Toe-lasting machine

    Lasting

    Toe-lasting and heel seat lasting machines pull each upper tightly over its last, giving the shoe its final shape and fit.

  5. Sole attaching press on the conveyor line
    Stage 5 of 8

    Sole attaching

    On the conveyor line, soles are bonded and pressed to the lasted uppers for a strong, even attachment.

  6. Pad printing machine
