Everything started when Ferdinand Stadler was walking from farm to farm as a „travelling shoemaker“.
The farmers used to tan the skins of the slaughtered calves and cattle by themselves as it was the custom in the Tyrolean Mountains in this time.
In regular intervals a shoemaker passed in order to make new shoes out of these skins and repair the still useable shoes, - for board and lodging as well as a small tip.
When Ferdinand Stadler had acquired a reputation as a skilful shoemaker, he decided to settle down.
He founded a small shoemaker‘s workshop together with his wife Kathi Stadler in Oberau, a small mountain village in the Kitzbühler Alps, in 1930.
These handmade shoes were gradually becoming more and more popular and famous. The shoes which were produced under the name „Festa“ for Ferdinand Stadler quite soon conquered the whole of Austria.
Ferdinand Stadler proved to be very innovative, developing many patents which should lastingly influence the development of an entire branch. |
