Exotic Leather Product of the Week: Python Skin Shoes

Chrissie Morris’ python skin shoes were a hit at Paris’ ready-to-wear week. One of her designs, pictured below, featured gold foiled python skin on the heel of a black ladies pump. Another of Morris’ designs featured black python skin stars front and center. For designs like these, shoemakers usually use front cut python skin because they don’t need the wide scales down the center.
