Fiuji 98 Taupe Amalfi Suede
This slip-on sandal in taupe suede is a masterclass in minimalist summer styling. Featuring an abstract, "H"-shaped cut-out upper, this sandal brings an architectural edge to a classic slip-on silhouette. The soft taupe suede finish provides a neutral, earthy foundation that anchors colourful summer prints and complements monochromatic dressing beautifully.
Designed to be slipped on effortlessly as you head out the door, they transition smoothly from morning coffee runs to relaxed evening dinners. The raw-cut suede edges give the sandal a slightly organic, relaxed feel, while the contrasting dark brown sole edge adds a sharp visual boundary.
Whether you are packing for a coastal getaway or curating a capsule summer wardrobe for the city, this sandal offers highly versatile, understated style.

Care Tips
- Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dust after each wear, helping to maintain the texture and appearance of the suede upper.
- For any light marks, use a slightly damp cloth on the affected area, taking care not to oversaturate the material.
- Before your first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray to help shield the taupe colour from water spots and everyday stains.
- If the sandals become damp, allow them to dry naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources to avoid damaging the suede and sole.
- Store the sandals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the soft taupe shade and maintain the sandal’s shape.
- Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dust and restore the nap of the material.
