Dragons are an important element in the folklore of Vietnam. The people of Vietnam are passionate about clothing highlighting this historical connection. Dragon Shoes from Saigon Socialite grabs onto this connection to create shoes that are a combination of functional are artistry. The base of the shoes start as a block of wood. The craftsmen take that simple block of wood and begin cutting, carving, and finishing the wood to create dragon pedestals to carry your feet. Every shoe is unique, one of a kind. The design does not stop at the base, though. Saigon Socialite pairs the artistic dragon base with beautiful leather uppers that make the shoes both functional and comfortable.
