Floris van Bommel De Zaler 10224 41-04 low-top sneaker for men in G+ width in the color Dark Blue. This De Zaler sneaker is inspired by vintage indoor sports shoes. The side is decorated with retro Floris van Bommel sport striping. In keeping with its inspiration from the past, the cup sole has been kept suitably basic. To bring the sole into the present, a characteristic Floris van Bommel zigzag line has been added under the forefoot. Floris van Bommel logos are featured on the tongue, side, and heel. The inside of the shoe is finished with luxurious leather lining and a removable footbed, which can be replaced with a personal insole or orthotic. This sneaker is made of dark blue plain suede, finished with contrasting beige sport striping on the side.
Floris van Bommel about De Zaler for men:
“In the design department, I work together with two of the very best shoe designers. About 25 years ago, I more or less tumbled into our family business and started doing this job, while they consciously chose from a young age to become shoe designers. Very focused and highly driven, they fought to build a career as shoe designers. The man I create the men’s collection with is the biggest shoe nerd I know. Like some kind of shoe robot, he knows every shoe style ever made and, if that’s the case, also where it was derived from. The sole of this shoe is his translation of a vintage indoor sports sole. He knows the entire history of this type of shoe, gives it his own twist, and designs the sleekest original sneaker around it. I could never do that. My strength is a bit more, uhhh… low-key. I’m more about trying things out instinctively, without overthinking them. The funny thing is that both approaches come together in this shoe. My colleague had developed this style and placed a curved sport stripe on the side as a signature detail. That shape on the side comes from our own archives. I actually came up with it about 15 years ago by accident while messing around with a sneaker we were developing. I didn’t like it, cut a piece loose, and stuck it back on slightly reshaped with a glue stick. We used that little shape on our best sneakers for years. And now it’s back… Vintage Floris van Bommel!”
