Sisters Viola and Vera Arrivabene Valenti Gonzaga founded ViBi VENEZiA with a shared love of 'The Furlana' — a quintessential Venetian slipper that dates back to the XIX century; when ingenious women from Friuli began producing footwear with leftover fabrics and old bicycle tires. Each pair is handmade by local shoemakers using traditional techniques passed down through generations.
