Project Twlv Information

Project TWLV was first conceived at a meeting in Stockholm, during which two friends, Henrik and Antonio, exchanged their passion about shoes, particularly for well designed and well made boots. The idea was born for a boot collection of 12 styles – TWLV. A new product range that infused traditional classics with handcrafted details took shape, with emphasis on texture and dimension, simultaneoulsy creating something unique and authentic. The intention for Project TWLV is to deliver a small, contemporary boot collection for both men and women of exquisite craftsmanship, with a strong focus on authenticity. Designed, curated and handcrafted by the best designers and artisans in Italy and Sweden, the product and materials is the result of a perfect blend between the two countries.
