About

DiVERGE is a Portuguese footwear brand founded in 2018. Customization is central to its sneakers: customers can use the website to start with a base design or adapt one of the brand’s suggested combinations, choosing a look before the pair is made. DiVERGE says its sneakers are handcrafted to order in Portugal. Its current site highlights leather from LWG Gold-rated suppliers and OEKO-TEX-certified materials, though the composition should still be checked for each design. Making pairs after they are ordered is part of its approach to limiting overproduction. The company is also listed by B Lab as a Certified B Corporation. The official shop is the place to design and order a pair, with product pages explaining the customization choices, sizing and expected production period. DiVERGE also runs iMAGINE, a programme intended to help young people facing social exclusion build employment and entrepreneurship skills. These are specific parts of the brand’s work for shoppers assessing its environmental and social claims.

Frequently asked questions

1. Who founded DiVERGE Sneakers?

DiVERGE’s official history says the company was founded by a group of friends but does not identify João Silveira as its sole founder. Therefore, the supplied founder attribution should be rechecked before publication.

2. What makes DiVERGE different from conventional sneaker brands?

DiVERGE lets customers digitally customise sneakers or select a curated design. Each personalised pair is then manufactured after purchase, allowing customers to participate directly in the creative process instead of buying a mass-produced colourway.

3. Where are DiVERGE sneakers manufactured?

Every pair is made to order in Portugal through a local production network. This model reduces the need to hold large inventories while supporting Portuguese manufacturing and shortening the distance between workshops and customers.

4. Which materials does DiVERGE use?

Materials vary by model and can include Leather Working Group Gold-rated leather, recycled polyester, organic cotton, OEKO-TEX-certified components and natural-rubber soles. Customers should consult the chosen product’s material description before ordering.

5. How long does a customised DiVERGE order take to arrive?

Because the company produces sneakers only after an order is placed, delivery commonly takes approximately two weeks. Production and shipping estimates may vary by destination, design and seasonal demand.

6. Can DiVERGE sneakers be exchanged if the size is incorrect?

Yes. The company states that eligible sneakers can be exchanged or returned free of charge. Customers should contact support first and use the authorised return label rather than mailing shoes directly to the workshop.

Souliers Martinez

France · Est. 2017 · Luxury

Julien Martinez launched Souliers Martinez in Paris in 2017, drawing heavily on his Spanish heritage. A visit to an Alicante workshop introduced him to hand-braided leather, which became a defining feature of the label. The shoes combine that visible craft with shaped heels, pointed or softly squared toes and colours that give classic silhouettes a distinctive finish. The women’s range includes woven sandals, pumps, flats and boots, alongside mesh, raffia and occasion styles. According to the brand’s history, its original leather designs were assembled and finished in Spain. Current material guides also identify production in Portugal and Italy for particular categories, so the manufacturing country is specific to the shoe rather than the label as a whole. Souliers Martinez sells through its own online shop and stockists. Its general European size chart covers EU 35–41. Fit advice varies by construction: some styles recommend sizing up between sizes, while others recommend sizing down.
