The Kaiman Split-Toe Tabi is a masterpiece of "Haute Couture 3.0," merging the traditional silhouette of a classic English Brogue with the transgressive geometry of the Japanese Tabi. Finished in a mystical Dark Tyrian Purple with a high-shine crocodile emboss, this unisex footwear is engineered for those who command the intersection of art and authority.
A special collaboration with portuguese brand Cinderela Shoes.
