Astorflex is an Italian brand that creates shoes using traditional methods, focusing on local craftsmanship and eco-friendly production.

The Mokaflex adopts the shape of a Penny Loafer, this slip-on moccasin that has transcended generations without ever going out of style. The term Loafer means "to lounge" and the Penny refers to the coin that was often slipped into the leather notch on the top of the shoe. This model was very popular in the 1950s, especially among American students of the Ivy League style, who popularized the addition of the penny, corresponding at the time to the cost of a phone call.

Astorflex produces its shoes with a responsible and sustainable approach. The lining and insoles are made of calf leather with vegetable tanning. The leather is soaked in a mixture of water and powdered oak bark and mimosa, without using dies or colored finishes. This process makes the leather healthier, hypoallergenic, and ensures greater absorption of sweat to keep feet dry and odorless.

The soles are made of natural rubber, consisting of coagulated latex from the rubber tree (hevea brasilianis). The different parts of the shoes are assembled using water-based adhesives.

The models from Astorflex tend to run somewhat large. You can choose your usual size, but if you are between sizes, it is better to choose the smaller size.
