Designing is all about making decisions. What starts as a spark of inspiration in our designer Sara-Lotta's creative mind transforms into a 3D print and is then brought to life by the incredibly skilled artisans in Portugal. Along the journey, the product evolves – perhaps the materials are adjusted for the perfect visual effect, the width and color of the laces are fine-tuned, or the balance of the outsole is perfected. It’s a process of decision after decision, shaping the ideal pair of shoes. From crafted hands to store shelves – and finally, to your feet. The perfect fit! . . . #sneakysteveshoes #craftedinportugal #craftedwithlove

Molding outsoles is true craftsmanship, perfected in our rubber factory in Portugal. We’ve developed our own unique outsole designs, all made from natural rubber. The process? 🥞 It’s a bit like making waffles – the rubber batter is poured into molds, and after just the right amount of time, out come steaming hot, custom-made outsoles. Each one is crafted from natural rubber, with 30% recycled material, but the most important ingredient is always love. . . . #sneakysteveshoes #craftedinportugal #rubber #craftedwithlove #ecorubber

From hands to feet. Always made with love. And no, that's not flour from baking gingerbread – it’s actually the fine dust from the ‘shake and bake’ process of crafting rubber. This is what a designer’s hand might look like after a curious visit to the heart of a rubber factory. Creativity gets messy, but the results are worth it! . . . #sneakysteveshoes #craftedinportugal #craftedwithlove #rubber #ecorubber

Up for some festive snacks – like candy bars? 🍭 Well, even if they look like candy, the taste might remind you more of… rubber. And that’s because they are! In the rubber factory where we mold our eco-friendly outsoles, we found these colorful creations in the warehouse. Just like measuring the perfect mix of sweet, bitter, and chewy candy, we use the same precision to craft the ideal color for a custom-made outsole. Cool, huh? . . . #sneakysteveshoes #craftedinportugal #candy #rubber
