ISSIMO X Allagiulia Artisanal Black Velvet Loafers with Embroidery

ISSIMO x Allagiulia Black velvet loafers with our iconic Pellicano embroidery.

The Friù loafer, or Friuliana, the loafers of the Venetians, are the symbol of the footwear tradition of Venice. Originally worn by gondoliers, friulane are entirely handcrafted by artisans in the northern region of Friuli Venezia Giulia, with rubber sole made from hand-stitched bicycle tires. The craftsmanship of the product, which follows the original technique of the Venetian tradition, is considered by us of great value, but can’t guarantee homogeneity to the shoe. Compared to many other Friulane, this model is unisex and it has a reinforced sole which allows you to wear them in any occasion, both for leisure and for an elegant evening.
