the Ilze Mule - Black Leather and Leopard

This style is so absolutely perfect and classic on its own, but our lovely customers have requested it without the ankle strap as well.  Wear them while enjoying cocktails or on a fancy dinner date and they even pair perfectly with just jeans!

We named this the 'Ilze Mule' after one of our customers, Ilze Guilmet, who was the first to request the Boom Boom style without an ankle strap. 

Details, details...

3.5" lightweight wood heel is hand-carved with a daring and stylish Cantilever heel. 

These shoes are very easy to wear, despite the cut-out heel.  They feel and walk just like our Souvenir Wedge style.

The Black Leather and Leopard Fur toe strap is lined with soft Black Leather.

The vamp is padded Black vinyl.

Durable non-skid Black rubber soles on the front and back of the shoe keep you firmly on your feet.

Due to the inherent differences in the natural wood there will be some variance in the coloration.

• How do they fit?

  • ~This style fits about a full size small.  If you're in-between or in doubt, we suggest going up to the next size.

    ~If your feet are very narrow in width, please choose your usual size.   If your feet are medium-to-wide in width, please size up.

    ~The wood heel is beautifully hand-carved and sturdy, yet the wood itself is surprisingly light-weight.  

    ~The footbed is cushioned with 3 layers of padding for extra comfort.

    Please note:  Our model has medium-to-wide feet and wears a solid size 8 in our shoes.  She's wearing a size 9 here.

    ~Each pair of Lucky Lou Shoes comes with its own crepe satin dust bag for storage~
