Soles for Souls
Truth or Square, Famolare's Handsewn Leather Comfort Shoe
The Comfort Shoe, Redefined
The Truth or Square is the kind of shoe that makes you question why you ever wore anything else. A clean, handsewn leather upper sits on Famolare's GET THERE wavy flatform sole, delivering a look that's polished enough for work and comfortable enough to forget you're wearing shoes at all. Available in Coal, Honey, Truffle, and Snow, the Truth or Square is a wardrobe staple from morning meetings to after-work dinners. The Snow colorway has become a go-to for nurses and healthcare workers who refuse to choose between professional appearance and foot health.
Handsewn Above. Wave-Engineered Below.
Every Famolare Truth or Square shoe is handsewn, a construction method that gives the upper its distinctive clean look and long-lasting structure. The GET THERE wavy sole underneath uses four waves to absorb shock at the heel, cushion the arch, and roll the foot naturally forward. The padded leather insole provides firm all-day support. A 100% leather upper with leather lining breathes and conforms to the shape of your foot. Recyclable rubber outsole. Handcrafted in North America from locally made components, in factories that pay living wages.
FAQ
Questions About Our Shoes
What is the Famolare Truth or Square shoe?
The Famolare Truth or Square is a handsewn closed-toe leather shoe built on the GET THERE wavy flatform sole with a 1" platform and 1¾" heel. It's available in Coal, Honey, Truffle, and Snow at $188, and is handcrafted in North America from 100% leather with a padded leather insole and recyclable rubber outsole. The Truth or Square is one of Famolare's bestselling styles, particularly popular among nurses and women who stand all day.
Are Famolare Truth or Square shoes good for nurses?
Yes, the Famolare Truth or Square is one of the most recommended comfort shoes for nurses and healthcare workers. The four-wave GET THERE sole distributes pressure evenly across the foot, reducing joint fatigue during long shifts on hard hospital floors. The handsewn leather upper is easy to wipe clean, the closed-toe design meets most clinical footwear requirements, and the Snow (white) colorway is appropriate for clinical environments.
What heel height does the Famolare Truth or Square have?
The Famolare Truth or Square has a 1" platform at the forefoot and a 1¾" heel, a low, even flatform that keeps heel and forefoot at the same relative height. This eliminates the forward pitch of a traditional heel, keeping the foot in a natural position and making the shoe comfortable for all-day wear without the fatigue associated with raised-heel footwear.
How does the Famolare Truth or Square fit?
The Famolare Truth or Square runs true to size. The handsewn leather upper and leather lining will soften and conform to the exact shape of your foot over a short break-in period, making them progressively more comfortable the more you wear them. The shoe is available in whole and half sizes. For wider feet, sizing up half a size is recommended.
What colors is the Famolare Truth or Square available in?
The Famolare Truth or Square is available in Coal (black), Honey (warm tan), Truffle (warm taupe-brown), and Snow (white), all priced at $188. The Snow colorway is the most popular for nurses and clinical settings, while Coal and Honey are the most versatile for everyday and workwear use. All colorways feature the same handsewn construction and GET THERE wavy flatform sole.
