Vintage Christian Louboutin Size 38 / 8 Brown Woven Leather Mules Pointed Heels
By Christian Louboutin
Located in San Diego, CA
A rare and highly collectible pair of vintage Christian Louboutin woven leather mules dating to the late 1990s to early 2000s—an era prized by collectors for its artisanal craftsmanship and pre-mass production design. These beautifully constructed heels feature an intricate basket-woven brown leather upper with elegant crisscross straps, creating a sculptural and flattering silhouette on the foot. The softly pointed toe elongates the leg, while the signature red lacquered sole and classic “Christian Louboutin Paris” insole complete the look with unmistakable pedigree. The heel is a practical, mid-height design—offering both stability and comfort without sacrificing style. This is the kind of shoe that effortlessly transitions from day to evening, making it as functional as it is refined. Made in Italy. In excellent condition, worn only a few times, with light wear to the soles consistent with minimal use. Marked size 38 / US 8 These versatile mules can be styled with everything from tailored trousers and denim for a polished daytime look, to slip dresses, silk skirts, or evening ensembles for a more elevated feel. The rich brown tone acts as a neutral, pairing seamlessly across seasons and wardrobes. An understated yet distinctive early Louboutin design—perfect for collectors or anyone seeking a timeless, wearable statement piece. ⸻ brown leather mules, woven leather heels, vintage Christian Louboutin, 1990s designer shoes, Y2K heels...
