Full Grain Italian Leather
Our luxury leather is the best in the world. It is extremely soft and doesn’t need to use plastic paints to cover up imperfections. Unlike cheaper leathers it won’t crack, or lose its shape. Our leather will mold to the shape of your feet over time, providing that custom fit and enhanced comfort. The durability of genuine leather means these are built to last.

While all sneakers will crease, our does the minimal amount possible. We tested 100s of different leathers and backers, and found some that provide extreme comfort without extreme creasing. These keep the FOB (fresh out of the box) look!

THE LOVE IS REAL
Frequently
Asked Questions
Why is Italian Full Grain leather and natural rubber important?
Full grain leather will look amazing for a lifetime. It resists creases and warping, and can be easily cleaned with a cloth and water. Natural rubber is incredibly soft and durable, and has a high rebound rate so it keeps its shape over thousands of miles. Commercial sneakers from big brands use cheap and hard leather covered in plastic paint (to hide imperfections), and this causes deep creasing and cracks over time. Their rubber is a thin and hard synthetic that isn’t comfortable and loses its shape in a matter of months.
What makes you an Asian American Brand?
1587 is Asian American owned and operated. We use our brand and platform to shine the spotlight on our Asian American stories, our style, and celebrate Asian American culture, authentically.
Why are sneakers made in Asia
We want our sneakers accessible to everyone, and Asia production allows us to make a better product at a lower retail price. Let me explain :)!!!
Asia production requires massive order quantity, but with this comes
amazing savings that we directly pass on to you. We were able to take
$100 off the retail price and use the same (and world's best) leather
and natural rubber. We were even able to make the sneakers more comfortable by using a thicker and more advanced footbed. Asian sneaker craftsman are equally skilled to Italians, and anyone who says differently also said MSG in Chinese food will kill you.
Which factories produce the sneakers?
We use the same materials and factories as many of the major fashion houses that begin with L, G, and Y.
What is the Zero Risk policy?
If you have a size issue or any other thing arises, we have a no questions asked policy for 30 days.
