Japanese footwear label Foot The Coacher delivers a collaborative mule sandal with luxury jewelry label END CUSTOM JEWELERS. For Spring/Summer 2018, Foot The Coacher delivers a seasonally appropriate leather constructed mule sandal, elevated by the jewelry label. END CUSTOM JEWELERS decorates the shoe with a series of silver details, using buttons and decal accents.
The collaborative sandals upgrade the leather fastening strap with a reflective concho accent detail. There is also a series of silver beveled stars across the forefoot to liven up the footwear some more. Both brands detail the shoe in a crisscross design found on the insoles. The toe box is also crafted in leather materials to match the rest of the mule sandal. The shoes will be available for purchase on Foot The Coacher's website in the upcoming weeks.
