Gianluca’s 554X sandals are handmade in Italy from dark brown cowhide. A wide strap crosses the instep and a separate loop fits around the big toe. Choose a leather or rubber sole.
The 554X slips on without buckles and leaves the heel and toes open. A wide instep strap sits apart from the big-toe loop. The dark brown, vegetable-tanned and oiled cowhide contrasts with the leather footbed, outlined by visible stitching.
Gianluca makes the sandals by hand in Italy. The tuffato finish involves dipping the leather in vegetable dye, brushing it and leaving it to air-dry. Available in EU sizes 39 to 46 with a hand-sewn leather sole or a rubber sole.
