I got started in this business because I tore some ligaments in my left knee, and existing shoes on the market didn’t help me with my shoes rubbing up and down on my achilles tendon. So I started designing shoes and quickly found out nobody would help me with the production part of getting the shoes made to my specifications. Now, I have spent 30+ years working with factories in Europe, Asia, Mexico plus here in the United States, getting my products and products for others made to their exact specifications. I can do the same for you!

I have made exotic leather products like handbags designed to look like Birkin or Hermes bags but made in Mexico at reasonable prices from genuine exotic leather imported into Mexico from Indonesia. These were not knockoffs, just styles that looked like the more expensive ones and made with high quality materials plus craftsmanship like those found in Italy but offered at a more reasonable price. We also made exotic skin sandals and shipped those around the world.

Nowadays, embossed leather with exotic leather prints on its surface, looks as authentic as the real leather from exotic animal hides themselves. Also, with this embossed leather you don’t have to worry about the needs for CITIE’s registration obligations in getting Import and Export permits with the US Fish and Wildlife department or other governments around the world. BTY, we only use embossed leather in our current PFS collections.

We can help you get your website developed, footwear sourced/produced and shipped to the landing location of your choice. You just have to sell them, we will do all the rest!

Creating AquaTeck Sandals – Part 1

This is the introductory video to the three-part series of “Creating AquaTeck Sandals”. These videos tell about my entrepreneurial travels as I went about trying to grow this company from a startup business to a brand sponsoring a runner at the Seattle Marathon. This video talks about finding the sandals down to Mexico and deciding to move from Chicago to Los Angeles so that I could grow my sandal sales at Venice Beach and the Costa Mesa swap meet.

Creating AquaTeck Sandals – Part 3

This is the third and final video to the three-part series of “Creating AquaTeck Sandals”. This video covers the time that I was in Puerto Vallarta making my sales trying to stay out of the way from legal authorities who were trying to keep entrepreneurs like me from selling on the street. I ended up paying back the factory 100% for the order that they made for us then I went back to the United States to deal with my ex-partner. By the way the thumbnail photo is of the old store Gutierrez Rizo as it was being torn down for new development.

Artisian de Lux

Here is another video showing work that I did on a project making motorcycle boots for an Italian company that owned the brand Artisian de Lux. We made 192 production pairs of boots for this company within three months of receiving the original boot that we were to copy. The broker was happy with our results so he gave me additional clients to make their line of boots, belts and source exotic leather.
