About Babouches Frulan

In search of a valuable project we have created a product that is not perfect but unique! Our Babouches will never be predictably perfect, because they are handmade. We are constantly confronted with the imperfections of the raw materials we use for the upper and that we do not want to hide but enhance. This shoe was born as a “poor” shoe, and for centuries the women of the families made them during the winter, using what little they had available: the sole was made from old tires of bicycles, the uppers were scraps of cloth, the Blecs, and scraps of fabric scraps. Babouches Frulan has decided to keep the tradition in the LE VELOURS, LES SOIERIES and ÉTOFFES lines, but the ancient art of packaging scarpets has met the right momentum in our company contemporary in the use of leather, even exotic, and furs. A project unrelated to the fashions of the moment that tend towards what is mistakenly defined (for us) ecological, because what can be less respectful for the environment than using materials produced with pollutants? Starting from the idea of wanting to contribute to the spread of scarpetz, we started a creative process that, without ever abandoning tradition, provided for innovation in form, structure, choice materials and accessories up to manufacturing: moments linked by a simple and therefore clean and elegant balance.
