Why it's worth it

Woven leather flat, handmade in Spain.

The Edit

Handcrafted in Spain, this pointed ballet flat is built from an open leather weave — think cane-chair latticework applied to footwear — with a ruched nappa heel counter that keeps the construction grounded in classic ballet flat DNA. The open lattice upper sits on a paper-thin flat sole with no visible hardware or branding. A genuine artisanal finish distinguishes it from mass-produced versions of the same silhouette.

Insider Tip

The open weave means no sockless buffer — a thin no-show liner sock keeps the lattice from chafing on longer wear.
