Black leather, reflective silver footbeds and polished O-rings give these Sigerson Morrison sandals their turn-of-the-millennium edge. Domed studs and square loops punctuate the curved instep straps, while low flared heels add a sculptural finish beneath the open thong silhouette. Made in Italy and marked US 7.5B, they are estimated to fit modern US 7/7.5 in a standard to standard-narrow width. Good vintage condition, with pronounced footbed wear and visible sole wear; the heel tips need inspection before regular use. Try a black slip dress or low-rise trousers, a fitted tank and silver jewelry for a clean late-1990s/early-2000s reference.

A sharply designed pair of late 1990s/early 2000s Sigerson Morrison thong sandals in black leather and reflective silver.
Kari Sigerson and Miranda Morrison launched their New York label in 1991 after meeting at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Their work earned the CFDA’s emerging accessory design award in 1997. Explore the designers’ early history.
The open silhouette is built around slim leather toe posts and curved instep straps connected by polished O-rings. Domed studs and small square metal loops introduce mixed-metal detail, giving the minimal profile a subtle industrial edge.
Metallic silver-tone footbeds create a clean contrast against the black leather and dark perimeter stitching. The heels are especially distinctive, with low flared profiles, smoky translucent-looking bodies, silver-tone bases, and black heel tips.
The softly squared footbeds, architectural hardware, and compact sculptural heels place the design naturally within the late 1990s/early 2000s return to streamlined, body-conscious footwear.
Wear them with a black slip dress, low-rise trousers, dark denim, a narrow midi skirt, or clean white tailoring. The black and silver palette also works beautifully with charcoal, oxblood, chocolate brown, and cool metallic accessories.

Fit Notes
Marked US 7.5B and estimated to best fit a modern US 7/7.5.
The B marking represents a standard women’s width. The open toe offers some flexibility in overall length, but the narrow-looking footbed, fixed toe posts, and closely placed instep straps may feel more fitted than a contemporary sandal in the same marked size.
Approximate modern international equivalents are UK 5/5.5, EU/IT/FR 37.5/38.5, and JP 24/24.5. These conversions are guidance rather than guaranteed equivalents because fit varies according to maker, production period, foot shape, strap placement, and preferred toe room.
Condition
Good Vintage Condition.
The black leather straps remain structurally intact and retain strong overall color. Visible wear includes creasing through the instep straps, light surface scratches, rubbing along the strap edges, and minor finish wear around the toe posts and hardware attachments.
The mixed-metal hardware remains present. Visible age-related wear includes light tarnish, tonal variation, and small surface marks.
The metallic silver-tone footbeds show pronounced creasing, wrinkling, scratches, darkened impressions, rubbing, and localized finish loss. The perimeter stitching remains substantially intact, with age-related discoloration and handling along the edges.
The leather outsoles show moderate to substantial forefoot abrasion, scratching, discoloration, and finish loss. Sticker residue remains on one outsole. The Sigerson Morrison, Vero Cuoio, Made in Italy, and 7½ B markings remain visible.
Both sculptural heels and heel tips remain present. The tips show visible wear and should be inspected for remaining life before regular use.
No completely detached strap, obvious sole separation, collapsed heel, or major structural failure is visible in the photos. Please review all images closely, particularly the straps, toe posts, hardware, footbeds, heel tips, and outsoles.
Styling Notes
Pair these with a black slip dress, dark straight-leg denim, cropped trousers, or a narrow column skirt.
For a stronger turn-of-the-millennium look, style them with a fitted tank, low-rise tailoring, silver jewelry, and a compact shoulder bag.
