THE TRADITION

The Industrial Revolution brought massive production of shoes. Today, there are few places where you can find artisanal shoes made with traditional habits. Indeed, Salamanca HandMade Tango Shoes are manually made one by one to each client. We not only preserved this tradition but evolved in quality and functionality of the products with unique designs and highest quality in labor and materials.
