The uppers can be produced in different variations, depending on the type of final aspect we want to give to the shoe.
A wide range of materials and combinations of materials are now used in the manufacture of footwear, boots and shoes. The base uppers are mainly made of leather, synthetic materials, rubber and fabric.

The choice of material greatly influences the life of the shoe and its style.
The leather uppers are among the most used, natural materials, breathable and flexible, allowing to have high elasticity and greater ductility in the manufacture for a better fit of the foot.
