Wide Leather Spring Mules

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Hender Scheme's New Manual Industrial Products 24 Nods to Birkenstocks

— April 21, 2021 — Fashion
Hender Scheme introduces its latest mule silhouette for the Spring/Summer 2021 season and it boasts the name 'Manual Industrial Products 24.' The shoe is a direct celebration of the iconic Birkenstock Boston. The uppers are made using natural leather materials so that it gives it a beautiful aging process visually over time.

Overall, it boasts a minimal design language that is complete in a light beige hue. The forefoot is designed to have a wide construction to provide additional comfort for the wearer. To finish off that area, it features a smooth and rounded toe cap. The top of the shoe is detailed with a belt that has adjustable elements with a small buckle and a small button that can be found on the medial side.
