Khaite Mila 35 leather mules

What stands out about the Khaite Mila 35 leather mules is how little it tries — the brand lets the construction do the talking.

Upper: Bovine Leather. Sole: Bovine Leather, in burgundy, UK 3 — the kind of detail that's easy to miss until you're holding it.

The kind of piece that earns its price tag through wear rather than first impressions.
