ASTORFLEX SHOES: Created for Life. Make them Yours.

Astorflex, an Italian shoe brand known for its durable casual footwear, has been making high-quality shoes since 1820. Led by sixth-generation owner Fabio Travenzoli, the brand continues its tradition of making world-class chukka boots. Based in Mantua, Italy, Astorflex produces iconic models such as Greenflex, Deukeflex and Bitflex. Described by some as "the best desert boots in the world," they feature soft suede uppers, natural crepe soles and undyed leather linings. Astorflex emphasizes comfort and durability using traditional techniques and high quality materials resulting in comfortable, soft and above all flexible shoes that quickly mold to the user's foot.

ASTORFLEX HISTORY

Astorflex, founded in 1820, is currently owned by Fabio Travenzoli. The company's name was coined by his father, Alfredo, who, along with his brother Bettino, continued the family business established by their father Daniele and grandfather Ferdinando.

In the early 19th century, the first Astorflex shoe factory was set up in Castel D’ario (Mantova), an area known for its numerous small, family-run workshops producing handmade footwear with leather uppers and wooden soles. After World War I, with the advent of industrialization, the small enterprise "Fratelli Travenzoli" began manufacturing various types of footwear using the "Ideal" method, now known as the "Stitchdown Construction”, which features outer stitching along the edge of the sole.

ASTORFLEX MATERIALS

Astorflex uses high-quality materials such as leather, natural rubber, and water-based adhesives. The linings and insoles are made from vegetable-tanned calf leather, created by soaking the leather in a mixture of water and powdered oak bark and mimosa, without dyes or color finishes. This tanning process makes the leather healthier, hypoallergenic, and enhances sweat absorption for dry, odorless feet. Most Astorflex soles are made from natural rubber, derived from coagulated latex of the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis). The various shoe components are assembled using water-based adhesives.

RESPONSIBLE, TRANSPARENT, AND SUSTAINABLE APPROACH

Fabio Travenzoli personally oversees the company’s production process, which now includes new manufacturing methods characterized by a responsible, transparent, and sustainable approach. Ongoing research into new materials and collaboration with renowned designers ensure that Astorflex continually develops topical models. All Astorflex shoes are designed for comfort, being flexible, soft, and quickly adapting to the wearer's feet. The company uses Italian leather for the uppers, sourced specifically from master tanneries in Tuscany.
