“I suspect there is a direct connection between my fascination for stuffing my face with pizza and the way we design our soles. The following applies to shoes and pizzas alike: If you don’t put enough love into the bottom, all you get is a sad piece of dough. Or, in the case of shoes, leather, of course. That’s why we always take our time for the different sole designs. And it gives me a good excuse to talk about pizza again! I’ve been talking about pizza so much while we were working on the soles that my colleagues got a bit confused. So… unplanned, but desirable: a sole with a pizza pattern. I am so happy with it that I wrote a poem especially for this sole: Unplanned, but desired. Unexpectedly, a miracle is underway, And nature takes its course. For a moment we had to get used to the thought, But now we can’t wait to meet you.”
