Super-comfortable slip-ons handcrafted in Portugal from Italian suede
The LUCA Terra Mule occupies the sweet spot in our closet between a smart-casual loafer and a comfortable leather slide. Each pair is handmade in our Portuguese factory, using Italian suede for the upper, soft leather for the lining, and comfortable Lactae Hevea rubber from the South of France for the outsole. And for added cushion, we added a leather footbed that keeps your feet supported for extended wear—whether you're bringing them along for a trip to Europe or breaking them out for a dinner closer to home.

Lactae Hevea soles are made from natural rubber—hand-poured milk sap cured slowly rather than mass-produced. Because this organic material breathes, exposure to light or heat can occasionally create a light white haze known as "blooming.” This is a normal characteristic of natural rubber, not a defect. It wipes away easily with a damp cloth—repeat the process if it returns. To help prevent blooming, store your shoes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
