Factory visit at Astorflex: Father, son, and the family legacy

For over 200 years, Astorflex has been making shoes in the small Italian town of Castel d’Ario, just outside Mantova. We visit the Astorflex factory to meet father and son, Fabio and Giulio Travenzoli, and learn about a family heritage where traditional craftsmanship meets new ideas and a belief in the future.

I wanted to buy a steamer from the company Steamery for travel in Europe, but the models available in the US won't work in the EU, not even with an adapter. So I had to figure out a way to get the EU compatible sent to me in the United States before my trip. I used an AI app called Claude, which helped me identify care of Carl as a potential source, and my delivery came within a matter of days. I am very pleased with my shopping experience.
