The Velvet Friulana Shoe "PinkPanther" combines the century old Venetian traditional handcraft with Milanese chic and environmental consciousness. The Friulana is made of the finest velvet, meticulously hand stitched to a natural rubber sole, made from recycled bicycle tires. A soft natural rubber heel has been added to the traditionally open friulane design, guaranteeing a more secure and comfortable fit in any situation. The unmatched elegance of the Friulana elevates your inner Doge - a Venetian nobleman - whether at dinner parties, on the boat or the daily morning routine.
