Vintage fashion enthusiasts, rockabilly fans and retro style lovers who want a comfortable flat for everyday vintage-inspired dressing, dance floors and occasions where a classic retro silhouette works without a heel.
What should I know before wearing the Olive-08 for the first time?
These require very little break-in due to the flat construction. Walk around the home first to confirm the fit and let the upper settle. Wearing them with socks for the first few uses can help soften the material and reduce friction.
