Net Leather Travel Slipper
These leather travel slippers feature a unique net structure that folds flat for easy storage in a felt case and adapts to the foot for a comfortable fit. Made from vegetable-tanned cowhide, the leather softens over time and molds to the wearer’s feet. Designed for travel and indoor use, only twenty pairs were handcrafted for the collaboration with SongEun. Each pair features a unique wood-grain pattern inspired by the gallery’s pine formwork.
