Collection: Gallanto Men Dress Savile Blake Shoes

The Blake stitch construction method is a popular technique for making quality dress shoes, particularly those with an Italian aesthetic. The name comes from Lyman Reed Blake, the American inventor who patented the machine that mechanized this process in the mid-19th century. 

Because there is no external welt, Blake-stitched shoes have a sleeker, more streamlined, and elegant profile than the chunkier Goodyear welted shoes.
