This style is final sale.
The Ceremonial Ballet Mule is a casual, open-back version of the classic FEIT Ballet. Using natural materials and a high level of craft, we created the perfect slip-on style for warm summer months. The visible handsewn stitching around the semi cordovan upper celebrates our master craftsmen's high level of skill. The one-piece upper is stitched directly onto a thin leather sole, that keeps the foot parallel to the ground, providing contact and allowing the wearer to move sure-footedly and with purpose.

All FEIT shoes are made from start to finish by one master craftsman. The one-piece upper is sewn by hand directly to the midsole. A cork footbed and a bamboo shank stabilizer are added, before cementing the leather outsole to the midsole using a natural, water-based glue. We refer to this process as a modified handsewn Goodyear construction—this method ensures all FEIT shoes can be resoled. Cordovan leather, historically made from the buttocks section of a horse skin, has been used only for luxury dress shoes. FEIT shoes use the entire skin—hence the name "semi-cordovan”. The leather is tanned slowly, nourished with natural oils, and shaved. A century ago, when horses were still a driving force behind transportation, hides were plentiful. Now they are extremely scarce and difficult to come by. The use of this highly luxurious and elevated skin allows the foot to breathe and because it is much softer, does not require breaking in. If you are between sizes, you can either size up and use the included insoles, or size down and use no additional insoles.
