Vibi Venezia Friulane Venetian Gondolier Slipper — Royal Blue Moiré & Grosgrain
Centuries of Italian craft, a gondolier's secret, and the most quietly chic shoe you'll ever own.
These are the real thing. Vibi Venezia's Friulane slippers — also known as Furlane or Venetian gondolier slippers — carry a heritage that stretches back centuries to the Friuli countryside of northeastern Italy. Venetian gondoliers adopted them as their shoe of choice for one very practical reason: the stitched flat sole provides exceptional grip without ever scratching or damaging the painted wood of their boats. Today, they've become one of the most coveted quiet-luxury shoes in the world.
This pair is crafted in a rich royal blue moiré textile with dark grosgrain trim and Vibi Venezia's signature hand-stitched flat sole. In excellent used condition.
Wear them as a refined indoor slipper, or style them as a flat with cropped trousers, a silk midi skirt, or tailored wide-leg pants. They are the shoe that fashion insiders reach for when they want to look effortlessly European.
Style Notes: Pair with slim navy or ivory trousers and a tucked linen blouse for a Venetian-inspired look. The royal blue moiré is stunning against neutrals, cream, and camel tones. Add simple gold jewelry and let the shoes tell the story.
