Amsterdam-based label YUME YUME presents its new Love Mule to continue growing its ongoing collection of heart-heel designs. This time around, the shoe gets a Love Mule look, which essentially takes the Love heel and drops the back strap of the look for a slip-on silhouette.
It is the perfect blend of the Suki sandal and the Love heel and pushes the brand's sustainable efforts and intricate craftsmanship. It features a padded thong-toe construction and has a vegan leather construction. The silhouette made its first appearance during the runway show that unveiled the brand's Spring/Summer 2023 offerings. The Love Mule comes in three spring-ready colorway palettes including black for a versatile look, purple, and neon green.
