“I think there’s a direct link between my fascination for stuffing my face with pizza and the way we design our soles. The following applies to shoes and pizzas alike: If you don’t put enough love into the bottom, all you get is just a sad piece of dough. Or, in this case, leather, of course. That’s why we always take a lot of time to come up with different sole designs. And it gives me a good excuse to talk about pizza again! By now, I’ve been talking about pizza so much while we’re busy designing soles that my colleagues probably had enough of it. As a surprise, they made me this sole. This was so unexpected that I wrote a poem dedicated to this sole: Not planned, but all the more desired. Unexpectedly, a miracle is underway, And nature takes its course. For a moment we had to get used to the thought, But now we can’t wait to meet you.” As a play on words, we’ve added the slogan ‘The Flooris Pizza’ to the sole. A variation on ‘The floor is lava’, by the way. But it’s really about the pizza.”
