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 women’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 ’Rubberdipshoe’ a fascinating hybrid and a totally new type of shoe’

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