You do, don't you? Because it can get to feel. That magic, that heat. Let me put you in position; That exact moment in which they ring the bell, and as by intuition-feminine or not-you know who it is. The Courier. You open the door and verify that your intuition was right. There he is, standing at the door of the house. Same clothes, same pen, same smile. Bring that package you've been waiting for two days. Those two days have taken a month to pass, the time is like this, capricious. Time is slow when you dream of loafers, whether it's a woman or a man. You smile back at Mr. De Correos, and you close the door without looking away from the package. You enter, surely to the kitchen or to the room. You take scissors and cut that zeal that separates you from your beloved moccasins made in Spain. You take off your flip flops, socks, home slippers or whatever you're wearing at that time. You open the box gently and take out the moccasin. At first you only get one. Always. You look at it, it's just as you imagined it or even a little bit better. It's what the quality materials have. You touch it. Not like when you play something to check if it's dry or moist, it's more of a caress. Like the one given to a dog or a cat. The time has come, the hour of truth. Yes or No. You leave the shoe on the floor. You take air, and little by little you introduce your foot to the moccasin. I like to call it the Cinderella moment. Fit? And yes, the answer is positive, it goes in perfectly. Because you asked for a little bit more baggy and that's how it was. You run to the nearest mirror and once there, the model pass begins. Why not? After that model pass, or that dance, comes the end of the process. It's all over. C'est Fini. Now start a new life for you and your loafers. We are delighted that that happens, because we have already finished our part. And you don't see everything… Because your story begins when you see that goalkeeper or when you give the button to buy on the Web page; But behind are people choosing materials, creating designs, making moccasins, echándoles photos and uploading them to the website. And there, once there, you're the one who chooses your new pair of moccasins. That magic, that heat,… It feels. He would even say it's almost palpable. This is how we carry the magic of our hands to your feet…
Do you feel it?
