Celebrate natural texture and modern architecture with the Alaïa Cube Thong Mules in Paper Straw. Designed for women who embrace artisanal luxury, these wedge thong mules feature a sculptural cubic heel and an upper handcrafted from woven paper straw panels. Elevated by a 75mm heel, they offer a unique blend of craftsmanship, comfort, and couture-level design—perfect for warm-weather dressing with an edge.
Made in Italy, these mules showcase Alaïa’s dedication to innovative, handmade detailing. The upper is crafted from panels of paper straw, skillfully woven and assembled by artisans to create a breathable, organic feel. The distinctive cube-shaped wedge heel gives the design a bold, architectural edge. Inside, soft calfskin leather lining enhances comfort, while the durable sole—crafted from 80% calfskin leather and 20% rubber—offers flexibility and lasting wear.
