Description
The Friulane in blue velvet corduroy fabric and a rubber sole with visible stitching. They are traditional Friuli shoes that were originally made at home by ladies in mountain villages, then found new life in the Venetian canals: the gondoliers needed a comfortable and stable shoe that was also delicate on the wood. The hand stitching, with its irregularities, makes each shoe a unique piece. Comfortable and snug, with the tongue which covers up to the instep, you’ll barely feel them; perfect for relaxing at home after a day in the snow.
Made in Gonars (Italy)
Construction
The upper is sewn by hand, with a chain stitch, directly to the sole just like in the past: to this day there are no machines that can take a Friulian craftsman's place. The hand stitch makes the initial fit rather enveloping, but in a short time it adapts to the foot. The rubber sole and midsole are instead machine-sewn.
Color
The velvet confers an ever-changing effect to their light blue: from any position, your shoes will always look different, but always soft and elegant.
Sole
The rubber sole, with typical visible stitching, ensures a good grip. We wanted to recreate the texture of a bicycle tire, because originally the soles of the Friulane were made with old tires (today's are quite different from yesteryear's). The midsole is made of wool felt and latex to give you the comfort you want.
Material
Velvet gives even more elegance to the soft outlines of this shoe which reminds us of distant eras. Soft and shiny, for the gentleman who will not go unnoticed.
