Friulane shoes (or call them Furlanes) are the historical shoes of Friulian tradition: simple lines combined with refined black velvet, fresh cotton lining and rubber sole. They were originally homemade by women from villages in the mountains, then they found new life among the Venetian canals: the gondoliers needed a comfortable, stable and delicate shoe on the wood. The hand stitching has remained just as it once was: hands make each shoe a unique piece with their irregular motion. Today these shoes are a symbol of elegance: wear them with cotton and cream-coloured linen trousers, with pleats, and jersey polo shirts in peach tones. Let them be your slippers at home, if you are one of those who never give up class.
