How Maaz & Co Formal Shoes Are Made
How Maaz & Co Formal Shoes Are Made — Materials, Craftsmanship & Care Guide
At Maaz & Co, every formal shoe is built with precision, comfort, and durability in mind. Whether for office wear, business meetings, or special occasions, our handcrafted footwear reflects timeless elegance and premium craftsmanship. From natural leather selection to our reinforced sole construction, each pair is designed to deliver long-lasting performance.
Premium Materials Used in Maaz & Co Formal Shoes
We carefully choose each material to ensure strength, comfort, and durability.
1. Upper Leather
We use natural dye leather, selected for its smooth texture, premium grain, and ability to age beautifully. This natural leather finish develops character over time, giving the shoe a rich patina.
2. Insole
-
Base Material: Leather
-
Comfort Layer: High-density memory foam covered with genuine leather
This combination provides superior comfort, cushioning, and moisture control—ideal for long working hours.
3. Outsole Construction
Our outsole construction is inspired by the durability standards of Goodyear welt techniques but designed with a Maaz & Co custom multi-layer build.
Outsole materials include:
-
Leather
-
Tyre rubber for strong grip and durability
-
EVA foam for lightweight shock absorption
-
Metal shank for arch support and structure
-
Copper tinkle nails for reinforcement
-
Synthetic leather sheet for a clean finish
This layered outsole ensures flexibility, strength, and long-term performance.
Crafting Process: How We Make Maaz & Co Formal Shoes
Every pair of Maaz & Co formal shoes undergoes a meticulous handcrafted process:
1. Leather Selection & Pattern Cutting
We sort and select only high-grade leather. Skilled craftsmen cut the leather following precise patterns to ensure accuracy and fit.
2. Stitching & Upper Construction
The upper is stitched with strong, fine-quality threads to create a clean and elegant look. Edges are carefully burnished for a polished finish.
3. Lasting
The leather upper is shaped over a high-quality last to achieve the perfect formal shoe silhouette—sleek, balanced, and structured.
4. Outsole Assembly
We assemble the outsole using our multi-layer construction for durability and comfort. The metal shank is added for long-term stability and posture support.
5. Heeling & Finishing
Heels are attached with copper nails and reinforced with tyre rubber. Each shoe is then polished, conditioned, and finished by hand.
6. Final Quality Check
Every pair is inspected for stitching quality, leather finishing, comfort, and shape before packaging.

Shoe Care Instructions for Maaz & Co Formal Shoes
Taking proper care ensures your formal shoes stay elegant and durable.
1. Cleaning
-
Use a soft cloth or brush to remove dust.
-
Avoid using water excessively.
2. Conditioning
-
Apply a quality leather conditioner every 2–3 weeks.
-
This prevents cracking and keeps leather soft.
3. Polishing
-
Use a neutral or same-color polish.
-
Apply evenly, wait a few minutes, then buff to a shine.
4. Waterproof Protection
-
Use a leather-safe water repellent spray to protect from moisture and stains.
5. Drying
-
If wet, allow the shoes to air-dry naturally.
-
Avoid using direct heat, which can damage the leather.
6. Storage
-
Store in a cool, dry place.
-
Use shoe trees to hold shape and absorb moisture.
