Detail:

Leather mules by Juan Montes, a shoemaker based in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Since 1982, he has been producing his works alone, creating special shoes where the rustic craftsmanship unique to South America coexists with a sophisticated design sense.
Made from high-quality Argentine cowhide. He hand-weaves each cut leather strip to form the upper and performs all processes himself, right up to attaching the sole.
The voluminous woven upper has a unique presence, as if a section of a western boot vamp has been cut out. The design combines the lightness of sandals with the substantial feel of leather shoes.
As you wear them, the leather softens and conforms to your feet, and you can enjoy the beautiful aging process. This product embodies the time and philosophy of a craftsman, something that can never be achieved through mass production.
