PULL-UP EFFECT COW LEATHER

Cow leather is a premium leather obtained from adult bovine hides, which are thicker than calf hides. It is known for being robust and soft.
Depending on the type of tanning used, the patina can be more or less pronounced.

Ideal for wet weather, pull-up leather (also known as greased leather) is a leather with a matte appearance. It is round, soft and very comfortable.

At the nourishing stage, pull-up leather is enriched by at least 10% of its weight with oil or grease. This is what gives it its "buttery" appearance, which also makes it more resistant to splitting and tugging.

CEMENTED CONSTRUCTION

Cemented construction is another assembly technique that does not require stitching, as the sole is attached to the upper with adhesive.

This construction technique is particularly suited to lighter models, with less obvious soles. Here at Bexley, we only use this method of construction – which is the one most commonly used worldwide – for some of the trainers in our casual ranges, and a few models of rubber-soled dress shoes for winter wear.

RUBBER SOLES

Lugged or smart, Bexley rubber soles contain a high percentage of natural rubber and guarantee both maximum grip and long term resistance. They are all suited to both wet weather and extreme cold, as well as being shock-absorbent, very light and really comfortable to walk in.
