With the amazing vibrancy and passion of the city, it didn’t take much to put Barcelona firmly on the tourist map, and that also applies when it comes to style. The Maians brand is typical for this Catalonian city, blending style and tradition with a casual look that makes it seem as though you have simply thrown on any old clothes and yet still look effortlessly fabulous. Their deft craftsmanship and fine materials coupled with an unwavering feel for the best colour and style combinations make this a brand really worth betting on for fans of the classic casual look.
The origin of the Maians name comes from a barrier island that used to guard the maritime coast of Barcelona’s shipping district. Over the years, the island gradually became part of the Barceloneta peninsula, and is today a lively district of the city. It’s no wonder that a shoe brand is named after this amazing urban phenomenon would be a huge success with shoe fans inside and outside of the city. The natural vulcanised rubber which characterises the brand’s flagship models is readily available in the region, making this more of a local artisan brand than the multinational name that we know today.
With so much Spanish soul and heritage bound up in these shoes, you would do well to keep them in good condition. Look after your shoes by waterproofing them before you wear them for the first time. Then, when you’ve been out partying or living the high life in your fabulous footwear, don’t forget to let them air thoroughly before you put them away. With many models being made of fabric or other similarly sensitive materials, using a shoehorn can help you keep your Maians shoes in good shape.
