Song for the Mute London The Artist Vl Taupe Splash

A collaboration between Song for the Mute and Birkenstock, 'The Artist' reworks the classic London silhouette through a quietly expressive lens. Distressed and paint-splattered suede recalls the patina of a working studio, while a co-branded rivet marks the partnership. The anatomically shaped cork-latex footbed and die-cut EVA outsole ground the shoe — a uniform built for making and moving.

Upper: distressed and painted suede with cowhide
Footbed: suede lining with cowhide, over anatomically shaped cork-latex
Sole: die-cut EVA
Co-branded Song for the Mute × Birkenstock rivet
Made in Portugal

Founded in Sydney, Australia, childhood friends Melvin Tanaya and Lyna Ty set up Song For The Mute in 2010, with the intention of providing a voice for the voiceless. With an extreme emphasis on fabric sourcing and development, the brand consistently rediscovers forgotten techniques and explores advanced technologies to ensure the perfect textile for each piece in their collections. The focus on comfort and human body contours guides their design process, and their frequent collaborations with specialised artisans worldwide reflects a commitment to quality and a non-conformist ethos.
