The Triple Stitch SECONDSKIN embodies the perfect balance between design and craftsmanship. It’s about creating a shoe that performs as well as it looks. Meticulous research and unwavering dedication went into the creation of this shoe, with a focus on fusing fit, functionality and premium materials.
The creation of this shoe required a complete deconstruction of the classic Triple Stitch to achieve the desired second skin feel. New technical feats were achieved, including a lightweight toe counter, Strobel insole and impeccably fine lining. The result? A shoe that molds to your foot with every wear, providing an increasingly personalized fit.
SECONDSKIN is a marvel of material science. Expertly crafted in Italy using New Zealand calf leather and sheep tanning techniques, it boasts exceptional softness, lightweight construction and remarkable shape retention. This unique material resists wrinkling and retains its rich quality over time, making it ideal for the discerning gentleman who values both style and performance.
The meticulous craftsmanship at ZEGNA’s Parma facility takes the iconic Triple Stitch to new heights. Every step, stitch and millimeter of leather is a testament to the brand’s commitment to quality. From the 0.8mm thickness of ultra-fine SECONDSKIN leather to the 68 components and 13 artisans involved in each shoe, ZEGNA’s commitment to detail shines through.
Exclusive to ZEGNA for the next three years, the Triple Stitch SECONDSKIN is a unique offering in the luxury footwear market. It’s a shoe for the modern man who values innovation, comfort and timeless style.
