Alaïa Ballet Flat Net Black

The Alaïa Ballet Flat in black net and leather is a lighter, more open construction than the house's plain leather flat, using a net overlay over a leather base to create a layered material contrast. The black net keeps the transparency controlled, with the leather beneath providing structure and coverage. Alaïa's use of net and mesh constructions is rooted in the house's history with stretch fabrics, and the flat applies that sensibility to footwear in a way that feels specific to the house rather than trend-driven.

New / Pre-Owned condition. The sole and toe box follow the standard Alaïa flat construction. An interesting alternative to a solid flat for those who know the house's material references.

Because the net overlay is a more delicate material than the smooth leather used on the standard flat, Clutch checks it closely for snags or pulled threads before listing, since this kind of wear is more visible on an openwork material than on a solid upper. The leather base and sole are checked with the same rigour applied across the line.

Every item Clutch sources is independently authenticated through Legit Grails ahead of purchase, with original certification carried through where the piece has it. Enquire for current availability, sizing and pricing.

Fit is confirmed against the client's stated size before dispatch, and both flats in the pair are checked to match evenly across the net weave before listing. The characteristic sole construction is also checked for wear consistent with the pair's stated condition before dispatch.
