Smooth leather and suede in a deep eggplant tone
Handmade women’s ankle boots crafted from cowhide leather in a deep eggplant tone and combining two distinct textures. The front section is made from smooth eggplant leather, while the upper section features eggplant suede, creating depth and subtle tonal variation between the two materials.
A matching eggplant leather strap crosses the upper, passing through a large brass-tone metal ring and fastening with a buckle. The extended strap becomes a central element of the design, while the warm metal details create a subtle contrast against the deep eggplant color.
A 4 cm heel gives the ankle boots an elegant and balanced proportion. The construction lines between the smooth leather and suede emphasize the structure of the design while allowing the difference in texture to become a defining detail.
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, ring and buckle incorporated into the construction.
Each pair is handmade in the ADI KILAV studio in Jerusalem, from cutting the leather through to the final finishing details.
