Five hundred pairs
of one shoe.
Sylienne is a small footwear studio working between New York and Florence. We are making one shoe — a 100mm Italian stiletto called The Signature — in four colors. It is hand-finished outside Florence by a four-person bench team. We will not be making anything else this year.
The first run is five hundred pairs. Reservations are open now; the shoes ship July 15, 2026. After that we'll open a second run.

On the shape.
Pointed last. Hourglass heel. Emerald lining. We argued about all three for eight months. This is what we settled on.
On the green.
It's #17A06E — a slightly-cool emerald we dyed ourselves to sit between forest and jade. Inside the shoe and on the edge of the sole. You see it when you sit down; the person across the table sees it before you do.
On the size of this.
We make the shoe in batches of five hundred because that's what our workshop can finish well in eight weeks. When a batch is reserved, we close. When we open the next one, anyone on the list hears first.
