10 hours in Madrid Airport with Azyrrha's Leather Oxfords to the rescue (thank you, Mr. Yavar Dhala) Never underestimate the comfort of a quality leather shoe. Who knew a 10-hour layover at Madrid Airport could be so...chill? Well, maybe "chill" isn't the right word if you forget to consider the weather conditions (don't be me), but at least my feet were happy. Those of you who read my linkedIn post last Friday might recall I was leaving Spain to explore Portugal's leather & footwear industry. This photo was taken during an unexpected 10-hour layover at Madrid Airport. While the circumstances weren't ideal, it did give me a chance to truly appreciate the comfort of my Azyrrha's leather oxfords. I have been using this pair for over 17 months now (my first ever oxfords, believe it or not) & they are still going strong. ✔️ Sleek design & ✔️ Incredible comfort I wear them at least once a week. This isn't a sponsored post by any means I just wanted to share how comfortable these shoes are & how they kept me warm when I needed them the most. If you are looking for a stylish and comfortable pair of oxfords, I can't recommend Azyrrha enough. (Link to the exact pair in the 1st comment below, check it out) Loved the design and comfort, Mr. Yavar Dhala. You have definitely earned a repeat customer here. -------- #footwear #footwearbrand #footwearindustry #leather #Oxfords #shoes Subscribe to my FREE WEEKLY NEWSLETTER to receive global leather, footwear & leather goods industry news & updates every Sunday at 11 am (link in the comment section)

Check out these fun and fascinating facts about clogs! From ancient discoveries to modern-day trends, there's so much to learn about these unique shoes. Did you know that the oldest pair of wooden shoes was found in Amsterdam, dating back to the 13th century? And there are three different styles of clogs to choose from - wooden uppers, wooden overshoes, and wooden soled. Back in the 70s and 80s, clogs were all the rage for men and women alike. They were the go-to footwear choice in traditional dances and are still popular in some dance styles today. Before machine-made clogs were introduced in the early 20th century, every pair was handcrafted by skilled artisans. Whether you're a history buff, a fashion enthusiast, or just curious about unique footwear, clogs have a lot of stories to tell. Next time you slip on a pair of clogs, remember the rich history and craftsmanship behind them! #amsterdam #visitamsterdam #accessibleamsterdam #accessiblenetherlands #TravelAble #traveltips #travelagent #travelplanner #welltraveled #travelbug #traveljunkies #wanderlust #exploremore #familyadventures #familytravel #autismtravel #accessibletravel #romanticdestinations #solotravel #luxurytravel #travelgram #instatravel #igtravel #beautifuldestinations #wheelchairtravel #inclusivetravel #wheretonext #adventureparenting #showthemtheworld
