Made to Order: “The Mayor" Men's Sneakers

$399.00
Onyx Black - Black Cupsole

This urban utility sneaker is 1 of 250 hand made in 2024 collaboratively by Pingree Detroit and COMUNITYmade in our factories in Detroit and Los Angeles, with locally sourced, sustainable materials, including surplus(upcycled)car seat and steering wheel leather from the Detroit auto industry.

PLEASE NOTE: Your pair will be made-to-order and is handmade and shipped in the order in which it’s received. We’re currently taking orders for our Winter production run. We have sold out of our 1st winter production run and are currently taking orders for our production run that will be made and shipped before May 31st 2024.

EVERY STEP MATTERS: Each pair has character and purpose. Just like the people who make it. Right here, in the United States. Designed and meticulously crafted with care to last a lifetime. Able to be resoled by our team in Detroit when the outsole wears out. Tough enough for year-round adventure, comfortable enough to wear every day. 

The leather used on your Mayors will have a texture and shade that may vary slightly from the leather pictured since your pair is crafted with small batch leather reclaimed from the production of new cars.

FEATURES:

  • Designed and sustainably handmade in the USA
  • Sidewall stitched so we can resole your sneakers
  • Crafted with Nappa leather reclaimed from the Detroit auto industry
  • Uniquely numbered- your Pingree Mayor is yours and yours alone
  • Standard D Width and True to Size

HOW THEY’RE MADE: When the Fall production run orders come in, Pingree Detroit is cutting each of the 500 pairs in Detroit, doing a portion of the assembly, and then we’re co-manufacturing them with COMUNITYmade in Los Angeles. Our teams are learning from each other and increasing capacity, as a part of this exciting east-meets-west American manufacturing collaboration.

Super nice shoes

I enjoyed them since first trial. Extremely comfortable, easy to put on/remove, easy to clean. Love them! And what a success wearing them, many asks me where they are from.

Great shoes all around

Got a chance to meet the creator in their shop. Great group of people.

Shoes are robust. A bit tight at the forefoot initially but they loosened up with a few days of wearing them.
