In 1853, Aigle
revolutionised the world of footwear
by using rubber as its core material for boot
manufacture.
Boots continue to be made by hand
at Ingrandes, France near Châtellerault.
From preparation through to finishing,
each stage takes place under the watchful eye of specialists.
Firstly, the natural rubber mix endows the boots with all of their characteristics (suppleness, waterproofness, sturdiness, comfort, etc.) Then the parts are assembled by hand on an aluminium last. The 3rd stage in the process involves vulcanisation of the boots in an autoclave at 140° to give them their definitive shape. Finally,
each boot is carefully inspected
to ensure that
a high-performance, high-quality product is obtained.
