Since 1957, we have been crafting our shoes using aspecific technique: the Kneipp(or Swedish)construction method,combined with a double“Petit Point”stitch, which ensures their durability and repairability.

: simply rugged
Originally designed for farmworkers,our shoes are built to be bothdurable and comfortable.
Some models have been in production since the company’s inception, others have been added to the lineup over the years, and a few have now been brought back from the archives.

All of our models have been certified as "Origine France Garantie." This certification entails two requirements:
Every stage of production takes place in France
More than 50% of the product’s value added is generated in France. Value added includes raw materials, labor, and the costs associated with production (energy, facilities, machinery, maintenance).
Gatine,
simply shared
Entirely crafted in our workshop by passionate artisans, each pair of shoes is the result of a series of meticulous steps, mastered through time and patience.
We place a strong emphasis on passing on our expertise, and we put this into practice every day through both training and the versatility of each of our artisans.
Gatine, simply designed
Simple, timeless designs that transcend trends and eras; construction techniques that make them durable and repairable; carefully selected materials: this is our recipe for shoes that will last a lifetime!
Gatine,
: Easy to Repair
Our shoes can be repaired! Even with daily care and high-quality materials, shoes eventually wear out. That’s why we work with a network of shoemakers, providing them with technical support and certain materials (soles, leather, thread, etc.) to ensure their shoes last a long time.
Gatine, simply responsible
To ensure sustainable production, we manufacture to order. This approach allows us to produce only what is needed based on demand. As a result, we can guarantee that our materials management is environmentally responsible.
Located in a rural, farming community, our workshop draws inspiration from the values of simplicity and authenticity to craft these shoes with care and precision in a welcoming environment
