The Mule in Black

$576.00
ColorBlack
Size36

Inspired by the iconic Morrocan babouche. A slim almond pointed slipper with a step down soft heel. Soft Italian lamb with leather lining. Handmade in Tuscany.

I am an 8.5-9 US and I tried the 39 and 40. And you know.. they both fit lovely. I ended up taking the 39, because the leather is so so soft, it basically just immediately gives and it will stretch a little. The 39 was like a glove. The 40 had a little ease. If I was wide, maybe I would go with the 40, but the glove like fit of the 39 felt perfect. If you want to wear them pushed down on the heel, sometimes you size up in an open back, that might be your preference. I don't like the feeling of the heel hanging off.. but I didn't have it in this. If you like it glove like, go true to size. If you want a little ease, size up. If you are a half size, size up. This leather will stretch a little with wear, maybe 1/2 size.

Caring For Your Handmade Shoes

Our leather slippers and loafers are made from Italian skins. Their beauty rests in the leather’s finish and handfeel. To ensure their preservation, please wear your shoes carefully. Treat them thoughtfully. Avoid water, dirt, mud or sand. They will develop a patina over time. The leather will form to your foot and change appearance. This is part of the beauty of a more naked skin, much like an unlaquered brass or raw denim, they will become your own creation over time. Markings, discoloration from wear and from being worn will create a one of a kind appearance that will tell the story of your time.

Please also realize that my shoes are handmade. This is a beautiful process that supports a family and community of Italian makers that have been making shoes their whole lives and their families lives before them. They are a lineage. They use their hands. They cut by hand, they apply the soles by hand. They sew by hand. Humans can make human errors. Because my shoes are not made by automated machines and presses, but by humans, they will have minor inconsistencies from shoe to shoe. If you have an issue with a pair please reach out. I personally check each shoe before it is sent to you. What makes them not 100% perfect is what makes them beautiful. This handmade construction is a dying art. It creates a fit and a feel that is different. They are different.

We do not offer repairs. Please consult with a qualified cobbler if your shoes need repairs over time. This is a relationship you should have in your toolbox. A good cobbler is your friend.

The sole is a sueded leather. It is a sole meant to be worn outside and inside. There is no issue wearing your shoes outside and even in mild weather. The soles are not heavy duty. I would suggest not wearing your shoes in heavy rain or snow. They are not that kind. Please note that in time they can become slippery on wet flat surfaces as would any leather sole. I suggest buying anti slip stick on sole stickers. You can buy them on amazon.
