Bally Lift boat shoe brown
A special take on the classic boat shoe, with an extra thick cushioned natural rubber sole for increased comfort. Made in a luxurious brown calf leather with a lovely lustre.
Bally was founded all the way back in 1851, and is one of the world's longstanding luxury brands. Parts of their shoe production still takes place in Schönenwerd in the Swiss alps, where the company was started.

The cemented construction is the most basic construction method for shoes. Here the upper together with midsole / lasting board (as is the case for all our Skolyx shoes made with this construction, where a proper real leather midsole is used) or in simpler cases a fabric sole base is attached to the outsole with only adhesives, no stitching.
Nowadays the cement used is strong and can often last long, but resoling the shoes is usually trickier. Often a cobbler only attach a new wear piece on top of the original outsole, to make the shoes last longer.

Which shoe care products to use:
Use Saphir Medaille d'Or Creme Pommadier shoe cream and Saphir Pate De Luxe wax polish in Medium brown or Hazelnut for regular care. It can be good to use Saphir Renovateur Crème 1-2 times / year for surface cleaning and extra nourishment. For more thorough yet gentle cleaning we recommend Saphir Medaille d'Or Leather Cleanser. We recommend using cedar wood shoe trees to prevent unnecessary creasing and extend the lifespan of your footwear.
