Smooth black leather and suede combined in a high-cut silhouette
Handmade women’s ankle boots crafted from black cowhide leather and combining smooth leather with black suede. The front section is made from smooth black leather, while the upper section features suede in a higher, softer silhouette, creating a subtle contrast in texture within the monochrome design.
A black leather strap crosses the upper, passing through a large ring and fastening with a metal buckle. The extended strap creates a strong graphic detail across the suede while maintaining the entirely black color palette.
A 4 cm heel gives the ankle boots a taller, defined silhouette. The transition between smooth leather and suede follows the construction lines of the upper, allowing the different textures to emphasize the structure of the design without introducing an additional color.
The interior is finished with a soft leather lining. The leather and suede sections are individually cut, assembled and stitched by hand, with the strap and buckle incorporated into the construction of the shoe.
Each pair is handmade in the ADI KILAV studio in Jerusalem, from cutting the leather through to the final finishing details.
