Our footwear production and how we bring your Ideas to life
We’re much more than just a footwear factory. At Gabarain, we work hand in hand with brands from the very first sketch to the final pair of shoes leaving our facilities, ensuring a production process that adapts to the specific needs of each client. This comprehensive approach allows us to offer tailored, flexible, and high-quality solutions that cover every stage of the manufacturing process. In this article, we’ll walk you through the key phases of our Made in Spain production and show you how we bring your ideas to life, ensuring that every project is unique and meets the highest expectations.
What is our footwear production process like?
1. Design: The first step towards something unique
Everything starts with an idea—and at Gabarain, we’re here to shape that idea into a detailed design. We understand that design is the foundation of it all, which is why we work closely with you to define your needs and preferences. Whether you have a clear concept in mind or need a bit of inspiration, our team of designers is ready to help create the perfect design.
The design process includes everything from selecting styles to the smallest details that will make your collection stand out. We make sure each piece meets your standards for quality, style, and functionality.
2. Material Selection: Quality and style tailored to your needs
Once the design is finalised, we move on to material selection. At Gabarain, we believe materials are key to durability, comfort, and aesthetics. That’s why we work exclusively with top-tier suppliers, giving you access to a wide range of high-quality options.
We specialise in premium leathers but also work with innovative materials tailored to the specific requirements of each project. Together, we’ll select the materials that best match your design and your brand’s expectations.
3. Prototypes: A perfect fit for your collection
Next comes the creation of the prototype. This is when your design comes to life in a physical model, allowing us to test and ensure everything works as intended. Prototyping gives us the chance to fine-tune key elements such as fit, comfort, and finishing.
It’s a crucial step before moving into mass production. We take the time necessary to ensure that the footwear reflects exactly what you envisioned.
4. Production: From idea to reality
Once the prototype is approved, we begin full-scale production. This is where our craftsmanship truly shines. Every pair of shoes is made using a combination of traditional techniques and modern processes to ensure the highest quality. At Gabarain, every pair receives the same level of care and attention to detail, regardless of the size of the production run.
Our production process is efficient and meticulously monitored at every stage to ensure everything runs smoothly. We offer delivery timelines between 65 and 70 days, always upholding the highest standards.
5. Adapting to your needs: Your project, your way
One of our greatest strengths is our ability to adapt to each client’s unique needs. Whether you’re looking for a full collection or a one-off prototype, we make sure every stage of the process aligns with your goals. Our flexibility allows us to offer tailored solutions that fit perfectly with your vision.
We make the production journey as unique as your brand and are committed to providing a service that exceeds expectations. Whether you need advice or last-minute adjustments, our team is always ready to make your project a success.
