- THE MAKING-
Handmade sneakers cut from antique silk velvet carpets.
Every shoe is 100% one-of-a-kind. The carpet decides where the pattern falls, so no two pairs are ever cut the same.
01 — SOURCED
Anatolian villages
We buy by hand from dealers throughout Anatolia — silk, velvet, and kilim, most of them many decades old. You are buying shoes made from the history and culture of the Turkish people.
02 — CUT
One carpet, few pairs
A single carpet yields only a handful of uppers. When the cloth runs out, that pattern is finished for good. Every shoe is truly one of a kind.
03 — NUMBERED
Built in Istanbul
Lasted and finished by hand in Istanbul on leather and suede by Turkish craftsmen.
