Carmina

Carmina is a Spanish shoemaker founded by José Albaladejo in 1997 and based in Mallorca. Albaladejo has a rich family history in shoemaking and Carmina uses the same techniques, quality and attention to detail as it’s more recognised British counterparts.

Carmina has a deserved growing reputation and recently revamped and relaunched it’s website and announced the imminent arrival of a webshop. The ability to purchase online should be well recieved as until now you would struggle to purchase Carmina outside of Spain and Paris (where they have boutiques).

At the time of writing Carmina is in it’s summer shutdown period for a couple of weeks but I hope to bring you news of the launch date for the webshop soon as well as another post with more detailed information about the characteristics of each last.

In the meantime, enjoy the images and have a look at the site, and also take a look at some of the great examples the guys at The Armoury in Hong Kong have had made.
