A pair of slip-on espadrilles from Kenzo in navy canvas, each vamp carrying an embroidered tiger face in pale blue and red. Size 39, unworn, with the maker's box.
The Piece
Kenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and the house has long drawn its energy from the meeting of Tokyo sensibility and Parisian ease. Since the early 2010s the tiger has been its most recognisable emblem, and here it is stitched at close range: a snarling face in pale blue and white thread, its mouth picked out in red, with the word PARIS embroidered beneath.
The shape is the classic espadrille. A soft navy canvas upper is bound at the edge in a darker trim, with an elastic panel at the instep so the shoe slips on without laces. The sole is wrapped in natural jute rope and finished with a flat cream rubber outsole moulded with the Kenzo Paris name, which gives the lightness of a summer shoe a little more grip underfoot.
The insoles carry the Kenzo Paris label, and the outsole is stamped with the size and the country of manufacture, Spain. They are shoes for warm weather, easily worn with linen, tailoring or denim, and the tiger gives a plain pair of trousers something to say.
