Women love shoes and have different shoes to
match each outfit as well as the occasions they are used for. Women all over
the world love Women Italian Shoes but
what most men do not understand is why women’s shoes are so expensive,
especially the ones made in Italy. They argue that the amount of material used
is less and yet the shoes are more expensive.
The reason for this is that the price depends
on various factors – the materials, workmanship, supply and demand as well as
the brand recognition and reputation.
The materials used by Italian shoe makers are
genuine leather hence are soft, comfortable and beautiful. Italian leather is
made from the hide of cows who are specially reared for their leather. The hide
is treated and dyed by hand, the tanneries in Italy use high quality dyes and
the craftsmen use leather which is full grained or top grain and so the shoes
are more durable than those of other manufacturers. The leather is also treated
with tannins and oils to make it more flexible and supple. The metal, threads
as well as wood used is also of good quality and hence the shoes last longer
than other shoes.
The workmanship of these shoes are good as
the craftsmen are skilled. Some of them have been carrying on these traditions
for generations. These shoes are handmade and therefore they are more expensive
but at the same time due to it, there are various designs and styles which are
possible.
As these shoes are handmade they cannot be
mass produced and are made in limited quantities therefore, they are more
expensive than machine made shoes which can be produced very quickly.
Finally based on the perception of the user
that good shoes have to be expensive and based on the reputation and
recognition the brand commands, the shoes cost more.
