Original Universal

This design achieves a premium position through a complete material and construction overhaul. It replaces all synthetic materials with luxury alternatives like full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather, a cork-latex midsole, and a premium rubber outsole. The shift from hook-and-loop to custom metal hardware and stitch-down construction signals superior craftsmanship and durability. The aesthetic is transformed from "gorpcore" to "quiet luxury," targeting a fashion-forward consumer who values minimalist design, artisanal quality, and long-lasting materials.

The success of the reference product is channeled through its foundational geometry and functional principles. This premium version retains the proven multi-strap layout that ensures a secure and stable fit for active use. It maintains the open-toe, utilitarian silhouette that has become a timeless and recognizable style. The core idea of a versatile, all-day sandal that blends comfort and function remains central to its appeal.
