The leather is dyed using two layers of colour a lighter tone underneath and a darker tone on top. During finishing, the top layer is gently brushed back in select areas to reveal the colour beneath, creating subtle depth and tonal variation.
With wear, this unique finish may continue to evolve, particularly in areas of natural friction such as where the heels touch. This is an intentional design feature that enhances the character of the leather over time.
As each pair is handmade, colour variation and brush-off detailing may differ slightly making every pair uniquely yours.
