Norman Vilalta

Norman Vilalta is the rebel of the bespoke shoemaking world and also a dear friend of The Hand. A former lawyer from Argentina, he mastered the art of bespoke at Stefano Bemer in Florence and then founded his eponymous business in Barcelona.

Instantly recognisable via his unique design language, Norman Vilalta shoes are a combination of strong architectural lines, sturdy foundations with lightweight Vibram soles and Goodyear-welts, and vibrant colour palettes that help bridge the gap between classic and contemporary. The ready-to-wear 1202 Heritage Collection is something to behold, as each pair is completely handmade just like a pair of his bespoke shoes.
