Berluti taps into Middle Eastern festivities with its brand new and ultra-luxe handcrafted leather sandals. Boasting a brown upper with a delicate Scritto signature, the design offers comfort and premium style to its consumer. In addition, Berluti sets forth a customization feature through a unique patina technique. In opting in for this, the buyers can personalize the shade of the handcrafted leather sandals to better "match [their] individual style and personality." This feature is made available due to the amazing adaptability to Venezia leather. Developed by Olga Berluti, the natural and mineral tanning of the leather is the technique which allows it to reach "colors of unusual depth."
With this venture into handcrafted leather sandals for men, Paris-based Berluti is able to blend its own heritage and the rich cultural background of the region in question.
