Supple Suede Frayed Sandals

visvim Launches the Cristo Shaman Folk Sandals for SS20

visvim reinterprets its own Christo silhouette to a sleek and supple iteration instead, with the unveiling of the Christo Shaman Folk sandal. The new footwear is complete in a black palette for a minimal look, focusing on the intricate completion of the texture and material of the model.

The sandals have a textural triple black look complete in a frayed accent informed by luscious thick suede fabrication. The top of the design has a small branding tag made from leather that weaves into the lateral side of the shoe. Notably, the slide also has finely cut edges that are accented by long tassels that fall horizontally and spread towards the medial side. The lateral side features two leather knots and it sits on a comfortable tonal footbed.
