Hermes Day Size 40 White Himalaya Crocodile Low Top Sneakers

Descriere

Himalaya is the name Hermès gives to crocodile dyed and hand finished so the scales fade from white to a deep smoky grey brown, a gradient achieved stone by stone across the hide with no two pieces ever landing quite the same. Its the same treatment that made the Himalaya Birkin the most searched for bag in the world, here applied to something you can actually run errands in. The twist lock at the laces nods to the houses Kelly hardware in miniature, silver tone and fully functional rather than decorative. Tan leather lines the interior, warm against the cool fade of the crocodile, while a simple white rubber sole keeps the whole shoe wearable. Himalaya crocodile is produced in genuinely small numbers; the dyeing process alone takes considerable skill and time to get the gradient right, which is most of what sits behind the price here.
