Luxury fashion house Burberry introduces its latest pair of shoes for the warmer seasons of the year and it is detailed with the iconic Vintage checks. The uppers boast the iconic plaid pattern throughout the strap and rests on a black tonal footbed foundation.
This leads the attention right towards the upper, contrasting with a beige palette that is complete with a matte coat. It is then detailed with a textural touch due to the rubber footbed unit. The sandals also deliver some branding accents. It can be found at the side of the sole unit, reading a stark "BURBERRY" as a nod to the brand and rounds out the minimal design of the slides.
