Having grown up between France and Italy, Capulette designer Capucine Lebrun wanted to highlight the talent of the craftsmen she admires. These Venetian slippers come in a wide range of colours and fabrics. They can be worn both indoors and outdoors, and the soles are made from recycled bicycle tires. These shoes are also vegan as the end-product does not contain leather.
