When the pandemic started, Capra Leather, a design studio from Bogotá, realized they needed to create a new product giving special thoughts to the struggles of the new normality.
As our homes started to become more important in our daily lives, they decided to design a product to improve their customers' home experience.
That's how HOM was born. Their goal was to create the perfect home shoe.
HOM is entirely made out of full grain leather, the finest highest quality layer of the hide. Capra's leather comes from the finest cattle raised in the open grass of the Andean mountains, complying with the highest environmental standards during the tanning process.
The interior is all breathable suede, a natural material with a signature napped texture pleasant to touch.
The footbed has four complementary layers.
After developing and testing HOM for more than 8 months, the end result was a custom made last with the perfect balance between comfort and style. Made out of premium, locally sourced, natural materials. Crafted by artisans to last the duration of a person's life.
Capra was born in 2015 from Juan's love of leather and his belief that there was space to innovate in the men's leather goods realm. He began his business by crafting and selling handmade laptop sleeves on Etsy
Since then, Capra’s brand has started to cement itself as a brand of hand crafted, sustainable and stylish leather goods. Today, they are trusted by customers in over 100 countries in 5 continents.
