Crafted by hand in Italy’s Friuli region, Friulane slippers—also known as scarpets—have been a symbol of refined Italian craftsmanship since the 1800s. Originally worn by Venetian gondoliers for their soft, flexible, and durable design, these slippers are distinguished by meticulous hand stitching and a uniquely upcycled, resistant rubber sole. Unlike espadrilles, Friulane offer a more structured silhouette and superior comfort, making them perfectly suited for everything from lounging at home to strolling city streets. Made with care from traditional velvets to playful novelty fabrics, Friulane embody the perfect blend of heritage and effortless style.
