Description Friulane are traditional indoor/outdoor Venetian slippers. These chic handmade shoes with recycled rubber bottoms (once made with recycled bicycle tires after WWII) are worn by gondolieri so they do not ruin the wood of the precious gondolas. Legend says that the Venetian nobles wore them to sneak in silence, thanks to the soft and silent soles in the night to meet their secret lovers.
