Manolo Blahnik built a reputation on shoes that refuse to be forgotten, and this Y2K-era Paterno thong wedge is a case study in why. Cork wedges paired with a snake-print upper are the kind of styling detail that defined an entire moment in luxury footwear, and pieces from this period rarely surface in wearable sizing.

The upper carries a green snake print across a thong sandal silhouette, set atop a cork wedge sole for that signature elevated-yet-grounded stance. Listed in excellent pre-owned condition, this pair presents with the kind of care that lets the original design details, from the print to the wedge shape, remain the focus.

WHY VINTAGE?

It Already Exists

Vintage isn’t “produced” it’s rediscovered.
Choosing vintage reduces waste, overproduction, and the environmental cost of creating something new.

Quality You Can Feel

Most vintage was made with heavier fabrics, real hardware, and craftsmanship that’s rare today.
It’s why these pieces last decades, not seasons.

Style With a Story

Vintage means no mass drops, no repeats, no algorithms deciding what you wear.
Each piece is one-of-a-kind which is why it is so special.
