Pumps - Blue

By Peruvian fashion brand Cornelio Borda by Renata García-Menacho.

Cornelio Borda's groundbreaking designs come to fruition through collaboration between Peru and Italy. The production, centralized in Peru, involves specialists from both countries, underscoring our unwavering commitment to sustainability. We prioritize repurposing waste materials and adhere to the principles of sustainable non-fast fashion brands.

In our Alpaca Carpet line, we avoid using animal fur and instead opt for Alpaca wool and, in specific models, Pima Cotton yarn sourced from excess clothing production in Peru. With this yarn, we intricately craft each carpet, ensuring precision in the stitching process. The final product undergoes careful hand-brushing to achieve a soft texture, ideal for our shoes and bags. The initial trials of this embroidery technique began several years ago with artisans from the Marche Region in Italy. Building on this success, we've maintained this innovative practice by collaborating with talented female artisans from Peru. Each artisan dedicates one day to embroider two pairs of our handmade Alpaca shoes.
