- Good Friday/ Holy Saturday - a walk in playful ballerinas
- Easter night - Easter fire in (biker) boots
The festive Easter night with candlelight and Easter bonfire calls for a shoe with character.

Functional shoes with water-repellent Gore-Tex and a light, warm lining are also a good choice here.

Slingbacks are the ideal choice for this occasion: they radiate spring vibes, are feminine and give your look that certain something.
Unisex classics such as the legendary MOC shoes (moccasins) or casual loafers are very popular. This is where comfort meets casual elegance.

The perfect day for a relaxed outing or a get-together with friends. This season, retro trainers are the ultimate must-have. They are comfortable, timeless and add a fresh, relaxed coolness to any outfit.
Excursus: egg colouring today and its artisanal roots
Colouring Easter eggs is an old tradition with deep roots. Eggs decorate Easter nests, and chocolate eggs are also colourfully wrapped. The artistic painting of Easter eggs is reminiscent of traditional craftsmanship, in which colours have not only decorative but also symbolic value. Even in ancient times, the egg symbolised fertility and new life, while in Christianity it stands for the resurrection of Jesus. In the Middle Ages, eggs were collected during Lent, boiled and dyed red to distinguish them from fresh eggs.
Shoes are also dyed by hand
Similar to artistically painted Easter eggs, the hand-dyeing of leather - for example in customised shoes - also reflects an old tradition. High-quality, hand-dyed shoes are given their uniqueness through individual layers of colour. The patination technique gives them depth and character - a process that requires a great deal of experience and dexterity, similar to the skilful painting of Easter eggs in traditional patterns.
Conclusion: Whether Easter eggs or handmade shoes - the art of colouring has a long tradition and combines symbolism with craftsmanship.
