What happens when iconic design meets exclusive hospitality? A collection that combines Swiss craftsmanship, style and tradition in the most charming way. The limited special edition by Tiger Swiss for Baur au Lac is more than just a fashion statement – it is a tribute to two brands that shape the Swiss way of life in their own unique way.

The Tigerfinkli has long been more than just a slipper. Since its origins in 1890 – back then under the Bally brand in Schönenwerd near Zurich – the shoe has become iconic. Generations of children (and quite a few adults) have grown up with it. Now the legendary Mary Jane model is experiencing a stylish renaissance.

The classic shoe has been reissued for the Baur au Lac, a hotel steeped in tradition and one of Switzerland’s finest establishments since 1844. Made from high-quality recycled canvas, the shoe is a delicate light blue with elegant off-white piping and the characteristic pompom. The flexible rubber sole makes the model suitable for wearing around town – whether for relaxed afternoons by the lake or stylish days in the city.
