Saucy, trendy, irregularity and history are the best words that describe the high-end french shoes brand: Freelance.
Alfredo Piferi is the artistic director and he has worked in maison such as VALENTINO, VERSACE and JIMMY CHOO, where he has been the artistic dirtector for five years.
Creation, know-how and French craftsmanship: both complex and exciting, the shoe production process is exhaustive and for certain models, 150 steps are undertaken just to produce 1 pair of boots. It is a job that requires an expert level of craftsmanship that the company maintains and hones day after day.
Far from the hustle and bustle of Paris, Freelance is based in La Gaubretière in western France for over a century. The original cobbler’s shop from 1870 has been expanded and developed into a sophisticated factory brimming with rarefied know-how, one of the few in France to still possess the craftsmanship handed down by artisanal shoemakers from generation to generation.
