Product Insights
Ancient Greek Sandals' Kimon 2-Strap Sandals, handcrafted in Greece by a Balenciaga-trained designer and a local shoemaker, merge Parisian luxury with centuries-old craft. The vegetable-tanned leather straps, joined by platinum rivets, are adjustable via Sam Browne studs for a secure, repeatable fit. A moulded footbed delivers immediate arch and heel support with no break-in, unlike cork alternatives. The rubber sole grips wet marble and pavement, withstands city wear, and modernizes the classic slide. The leather develops a golden-brown patina from scuffs, breathes better than synthetic-coated leather, but stretches over 1–2 weeks, requiring ordering the next full size for half sizes. This clean-silhouette sandal omits the signature wing buckle for a minimalist, durable metal closure.
