Our High-Top sneaker line is a natural extension of our Low-Tops with the same ultra-clean silhouette and our signature wingtip collar. Our High-Tops are handcrafted of beautiful full-grain calf leather from our LWG Gold-Rated Tannery by the same artisans as our Low-Tops with the same dedication to the finest quality. The cushioned tongue, soft lining leather, and Margom outsole ensure an incredible wearing comfort from the first day and for many years to come. The sneakers match perfectly with our Sandro Classic Belt.

PRODUCT DETAILS
THE CRAFTSMANSHIP AND MATERIALS THAT MAKE OUR SNEAKERS STAND OUT
KNOW WHAT YOU BUY
The fashion industry is notoriously opaque and deceiving. As a consumer you get hardly any reliable information on the actual origin of the materials and manufacturing conditions. To us, that is fundamentally wrong. You have every right to know exactly what you are buying. That is the only way to make better purchasing decisions.
OUR SNEAKER MANUFACTORY
Porto, Portugal
"Made in" labels are unfortunately a highly simplified truth. For a product to be legally labeled as "Made in Italy", for example, it is sufficient that the last essential production step took place in Italy. The term "essential" is often stretched to the limit. Many brands, including many luxury brands, use this loophole and have their products manufactured in low-wage countries in Eastern Europe and the Far East before they are "luxurified" in Italy. Unfortunately, as a consumer, you hardly ever know about this. To us, that is totally wrong and inexcusable. That is why all of our products are proudly crafted in family-owned workshops in Italy, Germany and Portugal where all artisans are treated with the respect they deserve.
Crafting premium sneakers have been a family passion for our Sneaker Manufactory for decades. Located in Portugal’s Sneaker hub, the Manufactory has been crafting premium-quality footwear for many of the top luxury brands since 1988. The vast know-how combined with modern technology ensures the refined look, enhanced durability and supreme comfort of our sneakers.

Price Breakdown
We all know that fashion brands heavily mark-up their prices. But do we really know by how much? We certainly didn't and what we found out shocked us. Traditional retail brands mark-up their prices by 5-6 times. Luxury brands mark-up their prices by staggering 10-15 times. To us, that is unjustifiable. We cut out the middle man, sell directly to you and pass the savings on to you. Our average mark-up is 3 times and we reveal our exact production costs. You deserve to know.

GENERAL FAQ
Why are you displaying your production costs?
We all know that fashion brands heavily mark-up their prices. The traditional mark-up is 5-6 times. The mark-up for luxury brands can even be 10-15 times. They can do so, because we as consumers don't know the actual production price. We firmly believe that you have a right to know. That is the only way to empower you to make more informed and better purchasing positions. You can find the exact price-breakdown for each product in the “What it costs” section.
How do you calculate the traditional retail price?
This is how the fashion industry works traditionally:
Production Price x 2 - 2,5 (on average) = Wholesale Price
Wholesale Price x 2 - 2,5 (on average) = Traditional Retail Price
Take one of our Low-Top Sneakers for example. The Production Price is 58,10€.
Wholesale Price: 58,10€ x 2 = 116,20€
Traditional Retail Price: 116,20€ x 2,2 = 255,00€
Dalgado Price: 58,10 x 3,01 = 175,00€
We cut out the middle man, sell directly to you and pass the savings on to you. Our average mark-up is 3 times.
Why is transparency so important to you?
The fashion industry is notoriously opaque and deceiving. As a consumer you get hardly any reliable information on the actual origin of the materials and manufacturing conditions. We firmly believe the industry is fundamentally flawed. You have every right to know exactly what you are buying. That is why we reveal exactly where our products are made, what they are made of, and what they cost.
What does climate positive & plastic positive mean?
There is only one Earth and it is our responsibility to take care of it. Yet, regardless of how environmentally-friendly our materials and production processes are, every product has an ecological footprint. We do everything in our power to make sure it’s a positive one. For every single order, we plant one tree with our partner On A Mission and remove 1kg of plastic from our beloved Oceans with our partner Empower.
Being climate positive means that we as a Company go beyond achieving net zero carbon emissions and actually create an environmental benefit by removing additional carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Being plastic positive means that we as a Company remove more plastic from the oceans than is created during our entire production.
