The process of making handmade and bespoke sandals, offers great pleasure to the sandal maker and it is a unique experience for the well-informed buyer.

The Features of Our Sandals
Unisex Sandals:
Most of our classic vegetable-tanned-leather sandals -inspired by ancient Greece -are unisex, except for the “Gallico” and “Minoan” styles, which, due to their elegance, are considered more feminine, but they are also, occasionally, bought by men.
Comfort:
We make the sandals comfortable by adjusting them to your feet and by shaving off all the corners of the leather straps that might dig into your skin.
Also, the natural leathers we use, always stretch out with time and mold to your feet, resulting in them becoming really comfortable. The soles of our sandals have leather on the top part and rubber on the bottom. The rubber part absorbs the shock of stepping on hard surfaces and makes the sandals less slippery.
The Breathability of our Leathers:
We use vegetable tanned leathers, ie completely natural leathers which let your feet breathe and over time, they acquire a nice dark color.
Sandal Purchase:
You can buy your sandals yourself, in our workshop, where we adjust them to your feet, or through friends, who must give us the exact measurements of your feet.
The reasons we do not sell online:
1st Reason:
Our handmade sandals are products of love and personal pleasure, combined with quality and therefore are not mass-produced for fast delivery to consumers.
Because people’s feet are so different we only feel satisfied, when we see our sandals properly adjusted to your feet, so we take the necessary measurements and advise you on what is best for your feet.
2nd Reason:
In addition to the expensive shipping, lack of insurance and similar issues, the high international demand for our sandals would mean that we would have to stop making handmade quality bespoke sandals and open a factory for the sake of mass production, increased sales and profit.
Our true joy and reward comes from the happy faces of our customers, who buy bespoke sandals in our sandal workshop! We firmly believe that the essence of life lies in the real and unpretentious daily joys that we must not miss by getting caught in the vortex of the internet.
