Black woven-effect leather texture with matching laces
Handmade women’s ankle boots crafted from black cowhide leather and designed in a high lace-up silhouette. The leather features a woven-effect texture, creating a distinct geometric pattern across the entire upper.
The texture is the central element of the design. The pattern embossed into the leather creates depth and subtle variations between matte and reflective surfaces as the light changes, adding dimension to the monochrome black without introducing another color.
Black laces blend into the upper and maintain the clean, monochromatic appearance of the design. A zipper at the back allows the boots to be put on and removed without having to undo the laces each time.
A 1.5 cm heel completes the low, balanced silhouette. The interior is finished with a soft leather lining, and the different sections of the upper are individually cut, assembled and stitched by hand.
The combination of solid black and the woven-effect texture allows the surface of the leather to become the main design feature. From a distance, the boots have a clean black silhouette; up close, the geometric pattern across the leather becomes visible.
Each pair is handmade in the ADI KILAV studio in Jerusalem, from cutting the leather through to the final finishing details.
