Abstract
In order to create a footwear model, it is necessary to take into account the chosen materials, the manufacturing system and, last but not least, fashion trends, because fashion can be a determining factor for the industry. Finishing improves the appearance of the shoe and preserves it. Various wax mixtures combined with natural and synthetic oils are used to finish footwear, such as water-resistant mixtures and leather polishing products, with the purpose of improving the appearance of footwear uppers made of natural leather finished by polishing. The obtained ecologic wax emulsion may be used in surface finishing of natural bovine leather and footwear, in the final dressing composition. This paper presents the technological process of footwear manufacturing and the finishing composition for footwear made of natural leather based on complex metal dyes, ethyl alcohol, nitrocellulose aqueous emulsion, wax emulsion (made from triethanolamine monostearate and paraffin oil), used to obtain glossy finish.
