This tan macrame shoe, crafted from intricately knotted cord, tapers to a sharp, pointed toe on our right. A diamond lattice covers the heel, while diagonal bands accented with muted green, purple, and gray threads wrap over the midsection. Interlocking circular motifs embellish the toe area. From the heel's top edge on our left, several loose cord strands trail away, emphasizing the shoe's delicate, handcrafted construction.
