"Classe" doesn´t exist in spanish. "Clase" does mean class.

"Prima" means female cousin or insurance premium in spanish.

Perhaps you saw "Primera clase" which would mean first class, though that´s generally appplied to aircraft and train seating.

The spanish-made shoes I´ve seen have only had "hecho a mano", which means hand-made, or "cuero", which means leather.

In any event, I´d be surprised that the marketing department at Church´s would allow spanish to be written on their shoes. Anything in italian would surely command a higher markup.
