Turquoise is all about manufacturing tango shoes which are so comfortable and elegant that they are good for life.
What motivated us about making shoes was the basic wish to have comfortable, light and elegant tango shoes on dance in. Having danced for more than a decade, you can imagine that we have spent a good amount of fortune on shoes. Bought from many different cities around the world, some were not elegant, some didn't have the proper geometry, some didn’t have the right grasp of the foot, some didn't have the right balance or the necessary comfort which, we believe, are the basic foundation of a just simple, good shoe.
Acting on the principle of “good enough is not enough”, we started making tango shoes in 2007. We didn’t focus on mass production and sale until we believed we have physically tested them long enough in milongas to assure ourselves that we reached a certain point in terms of quality and aesthetics. Needless to say that a good shoe structure should be accurately calculated to verify the basic rules of geometry and anatomy. However, we still believe perfection is not a point to be reached but rather is an on-going journey just like tango dance which also evolves continuously.
Now we are at a stage that we are fully content with the structure of our shoes, we are ready for you to try and test them. Our new styles will follow very shortly… Please share your experiences with us…
