Introducing the Catena

The Chain: Where Jewelry Meets Footwear

Some shoes are accessories. The Catena is architecture.

Named for the Italian word for chain, the Catena is built around a defining feature that elevates it from extraordinary to unforgettable: a network of interwoven gold chains, hand-threaded through supple leather, that forms the entire upper of the shoe. These aren’t decorative details applied after the fact—they are the shoe itself, a structural and artistic statement that blurs the boundary between fine jewelry and fine footwear.

Each chain is carefully selected for its weight, its luster, and its movement. Woven together with leather and secured by the hands of skilled Italian artisans, the result is a strap system that drapes the foot with the same intention a jeweler brings to a bracelet. Fluid. Luminous. Alive.

A Slingback for the Modern Muse

The Catena’s silhouette is the slingback—open at the heel, liberated at the ankle, and impossibly chic in the tradition of the great Italian fashion houses. The pointed toe draws the eye forward while the heel strap keeps every step grounded and secure, giving the wearer both freedom and confidence in equal measure.

Available in two silhouettes—open toe and closed toe—the Catena adapts to the occasion without ever compromising its character. The closed toe is polished and precise, suited to evenings where every detail is considered. The open toe is sensual and effortless, built for moments when you want to feel the air on your skin and the eyes in the room on you.

Two Colors. Infinite Drama.

The Catena is offered in two colorways—each chosen to let the gold chain take center stage:

  • Black — The definitive evening shoe. Against the deep, matte black leather, the gold chain shimmers like candlelight. It is timeless, magnetic, and completely irresistible.
  • Red — For those who need no invitation to be noticed. The rich red leather beneath the gold chain creates a tension that is impossible to look away from—passion and precision in perfect balance.

Lined with Luxury

Inside, the Catena is finished with a 100% Italian leather lining—soft, breathable, and supple against the skin. It conforms to your foot over time, creating a fit that is uniquely yours. This is the detail that separates a beautiful shoe from one you never want to take off.

Italian Sole, Italian Soul

The outsole is crafted from 100% Italian leather and finished with the pomiciato technique—a hand-polishing process that delivers an exceptionally smooth, refined surface. It is the foundation of the Catena, and like everything else about this shoe, it is built with no concession to anything less than excellence.

Elevation Without Compromise

The Catena’s sculptural heel provides exactly the right elevation—enough to lengthen the line of the leg and announce your presence, balanced with the comfort to carry you from the first hour to the last. This is a shoe made for a full evening, not just an entrance.
