Rubberdipshoe

Lola Pagola

At first sight these shoes look a bit unprepossessing with that rough rubber skin and that short woollen sock. But once on, they are immediately transformed into splendid high boots guaranteed to enhance every womenโ€™s leg. And on wearing these shoes another quality emerges: under the rubber is a leather inner-shoe which meets all the demands of comfort.

The rich interior inside and unusual exterior, the woollen sock in a classic pump and the exceptional combination of materials and techniques make this โ€™Rubberdipshoeโ€™ a fascinating hybrid and a totally new type of shoeโ€™

Donated to the Centraal Museum Utrecht, The Netherlands, in 1998.
