What makes a successful person different? The presence of good quality shoes, expensive perfumes and Swiss watches. If in relation to the last things it is difficult to judge, since this is a matter of taste and the availability of money, then you can start talking about shoes. In general, a century ago, about serial production, and even about such a concept as branded shoes, not only was not known, but there was not even any discussion. Now a variety of manufacturers, prices, new technologies and models will not leave indifferent any, even the most demanding buyer. At the moment, the brand of fashionable shoes Mascotte is gaining special popularity.
History
Mascotte shoes are represented throughout Russia and even have their own personal website. It is on it that you can get all the information regarding the history of the brand. So, open information says that initially the founder of the brand was a certain Englishman who grew from a simple worker to the owner of the company. By the way, branded shoes received the name "Talisman", or the familiar Mascotte.
The products were mainly popular in narrow circles, gathering around themselves the richest people in England. Already much later, in 1995, serial
production of shoes was established, combining excellent quality and affordable prices. At the same time, the process of entering the brand to the world level began. Now the brand belongs to an Austrian company that constantly improves the process of creating shoes, tracks global trends and takes a responsible approach to choosing a design.
Secret of success
According to official figures, Mascotte shoes are successful due to the combination of a number of conditions for continuous work on product quality. These include the following:
- search for fresh ideas;
- use only quality materials;
- creating models that meet the requirements of fashion.
According to company management, designers from different parts of the earth work daily to create collections. That is why every pair of shoes is distinguished by its originality and novelty of the approach to execution. A special pride of the company is the joint work of designers with eminent fashion houses. In addition, since 2012, Mascotte began cooperation with one of the most famous English design schools, whose graduates were such fashionable figures as Alexander McQueen, Jimmy Chu, John Galliano , etc. All this speaks of the impeccable style of each collection.
Production was transferred to the factories of Italy, Brazil, Portugal and Spain, and some models were completely sewn by hand. The company immediately disposes of such information to itself, determining the choice of customers in its favor. High-quality materials, a special style, reflecting the style of the designer, foreign production, and most importantly, attractive price - it is impossible to resist such a set of qualities.
Exposure
After reading the beautifully painted information from the official website of the company, you willy-nilly think: Are Mascotte shoes really so good? The banal logic immediately comes into play. Would it really be beneficial for the company to use natural materials, invite eminent designers, especially those who sew collections for fashion houses, whose history begins from the last century, to develop limited collections and at the same time set a price that is not the smallest, but at such costs Doesn't pay a quarter of the goods? Something is wrong here.
True origin
More recently, the shoe trademark belonged to the company Maskot-Shuz LLC. Actually, this does not mean any English origin of the brand.
Later, the truth was that it was overbought by an Austrian company, but it does not deal with anything other than the production of these shoes. There is only one conclusion: it’s a dummy duck, so that the story, beautifully painted on the site, is not completely implausible. It is also not clear how from the English brand shoes migrated to Russian, and then it turned out to be completely Austrian. We look further.
Official site
Nevertheless, in order not to be overwhelmed at all, the company creates one more site, but on an English site. By the way, he is not as beautiful as the Russian-speaking one, and, apparently, is not very popular, therefore, efforts are not wasted on his development and improvement. Some of the pages are in Russian, and if you want to make an online purchase, the page is automatically redirected again to our domestic version of the site. The British would hardly expect Mascotte shoes straight from Russia, being sure that the brand belongs to them.
Production
As mentioned above, production is established at foreign factories. This explains the quality of the products. True, China is modestly huddled at the end of the list, but who doesn’t sew shoes in Chinese factories?
More recently, Russian factories were out of the question. But, apparently, given the mistakes of the past, the brand nevertheless decided to add some more truth to its description and indicated that it had begun its production in Russia as well. By the way, you cannot immediately find this line in the canvas of text. It is deeply lost in the article and removed from the loud description of the first-class factories in Italy, where famous labels are sewn. It seems to be indicated, but it seems - not to be seen.
about Shop
Once on the official website posted information that the shoe store Mascotte opened its flagship center in London. And not somewhere, but in the largest shopping center. Now, of course, there is no confirmation of this. But the fact that each salon combines multi-brand products is a fact. And Mascotte does not even hide it, also reliably veiling with colorful epithets and raising, rather, to an advantage. Thus, of course, there is no definite answer about the high quality of shoes, but the fact of constant lies, reliably covered by the truth, is very alarming.
Mascotte shoes: reviews
The manufacturer himself claims that the shoes are of the highest quality and made of natural materials. Reviews say the opposite. Undoubtedly, there are positive ones too, but many times more negative ones.
So, Mascotte women's shoes are notable for an uncomfortable shoe and poor quality of tailoring. For example, girls note, straps of sandals are sewn directly between the insole and the sole, resulting in a distortion of both. For expensive shoes, this is not acceptable. There is savings on the sole: instead of the component parts (heel and the main part), a single unit is cast. As a result - quick wear without the possibility of restoration. Winter shoes allow moisture to pass through, the accessories are short-lived, and the skin does crack in the cold. On average, one pair is barely enough for the season.
Mascotte men's shoes are also not far behind in terms of performance. The sole is peeled off, the heels are erased, the trade dress is lost instantly, the skin breaks even from a slight touch to it. Despite the quality care and protection from aggressive outdoor environments, the shoes do not withstand daily wear.
Conclusion
Undoubtedly, any shoes are sewn at the factory, where malfunctions in technology, various malfunctions and the influence of the most common human factor are possible.
However, such an explanation is appropriate if one pair out of a thousand is found to be defective. Another thing is Mascotte shoes. Despite the beautiful description, customer reviews are very unpleasant. You can refer to the individual characteristics of each, but they should not affect the sole or quality of the materials used. Together with a decent price, this state of affairs is unacceptable.
