Artisan Roots

From father to son, the art of teaching, the art of learning, the art of creating together.

This Father’s Day, we celebrate the craftsmanship passed down from generation to generation, a legacy of authenticity and responsibility reflected in the soul of every piece created. We spoke with Paco Poyatos and Juanfran Poyatos, father and son, both artisans at Lottusse, whose mastery and collaboration keep alive a craft that unites past and present.

"I come from a family of four generations of craftsmen, and I never imagined my son would follow in my footsteps. This fills me with happiness. Thanks to this job, I've had the opportunity to learn, travel, and meet wonderful people. It's a very beautiful profession. That's why I always tell my son to work with dedication, to do things the right way, because this craft is incredibly rewarding." – Paco P.

The story of Paco and Juanfran is not just a tale about the crafting of high-quality shoes, but a living testimony to the value of tradition when passed down with passion and dedication.

Father and son, united by the same craft, preserve a tradition rich in history and deep meaning. Their bond is unique, and through their hands, they not only shape shoes, but forge a valuable family legacy.

In their workshop, through every gesture and action, principles and values are evident, lived together: respect for the materials, meticulous attention to every detail, and an unwavering commitment to creating shoes that not only stand out for their beauty but also endure over time.

"It's a proud moment for me to learn from my father every day and continue the family tradition. He has taught me to respect the craft, dedicate passion and care to everything I do, and to keep learning every day. I still see a lot of future in the industry, and I wish more young people would get interested in learning such a beautiful trade." – Juanfran P.

With every pair of shoes that leaves our workshop, we honor all fathers and sons who, like Paco and Juanfran, continue to build bridges between the past and the future, ensuring that love, wisdom, and unconditional support are passed on, marking every step we take.

"Une chose que nous avons toujours en tête, c'est que, lorsque l'on met de la passion dans ce que l'on fait, cet effort se reflète dans le résultat. L'expérience de travailler ensemble est extrêmement positive et enrichissante. Cela nous permet d'appliquer des valeurs fondamentales au quotidien. Nous croyons qu'il reste encore beaucoup à faire dans le monde de l'artisanat, et que tradition et innovation peuvent aller de pair. Nous continuerons à apporter notre pierre à l'édifice." – Paco P. y Juanfran P.

At Lottusse, we firmly believe that every shoe carries with it a story, a piece of this paternal legacy that extends beyond generations. We celebrate not only the art of craftsmanship, but also the depth of the relationships born at the heart of this tradition, a legacy that we are honored to continue living at Lottusse
