Leather shoes refer to shoes with natural leather as the upper and leather or rubber, plastic, PU foam and PVC as the sole, which are processed by sewing, gluing or injection molding. Leather shoes are characterized by air permeability, moisture absorption and good sanitary performance, and are the highest grade shoes in all kinds of shoes and boots.

Thousands of years ago, human ancestors had the habit of wearing shoes, covering their feet with animal skins, and making shoes from leather to modern leather shoes. Leather shoes have a long history. In China, the production of modern leather shoes is only 120 years old.

However, because the shape, style, structure and wearing function of leather shoes are superior to other shoes, the production of leather shoes has developed rapidly. Nowadays, leather shoes have become people's favorite shoes, one of the commodities to beautify people's lives, and a "decisive" product in the clothing category.

Historical development.

Thousands of years ago, human ancestors had the habit of wearing shoes, wrapping their feet with animal skins and making shoes from leather to modern leather shoes. Wearing leather shoes has a long history.

According to legend, in the era of the Yellow Emperor, officials made doors with leather and made shoes with leather. This can be said to be the origin of China leather shoes.

In Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the technology of tanning and leather shoes production was very mature. Many bronze inscriptions in Western Zhou Dynasty recorded the production of leather shawls, leather aprons, rawhide ropes, drum skins, shoe tube skins, dyed skins and rawhide boards.

At that time, there were five official positions: gold, jade, leather, industry and stone. It can be seen that tanning and leather shoes production were quite developed at that time, so that the court had to set up full-time officials to manage them. According to historical records, Yi Yin, the prime minister of Shang Dynasty, made shoes with leather. According to the calculation, China has been making shoes for more than 3,000 years, which is just different from today's leather shoes. Modern leather shoes manufacturing technology has not been introduced to China from abroad for a long time, only 100 years.
