The black 500Y pairs two smooth straps with a matching footbed for a clean, low-profile shape. Gianluca’s 500Y slips on without buckles and leaves the toes and heel open.
Each pair is made by hand in Italy from vegetable-tanned, oiled cowhide. For the tuffato finish, the leather is dipped in vegetable dye, brushed by hand and air-dried. Visible stitching outlines the leather footbed. The model comes in EU sizes 39 to 46 with a hand-sewn leather sole or a rubber sole.
