Clean leather design with metal eyelets and wide leather laces
Handmade women’s shoes crafted from cowhide leather in a warm, deep terra cotta shade. The design is based on a clean, minimal silhouette, with the distinctive lacing system becoming the central feature of the shoe.
Instead of conventional shoelaces, the design features wide terra cotta leather straps threaded through dark-toned round metal eyelets. The leather laces extend beyond the fastening and fall freely along the side of the shoe, adding movement and giving the classic lace-up construction a distinctive character.
The front is constructed from a smooth, continuous leather surface with minimal cutting lines, allowing the terra cotta color and lacing system to remain the focus. Using the same leather tone for both the upper and the laces creates a monochromatic composition, while the metal eyelets provide a subtle contrast.
The 2 cm heel maintains a low, clean profile. The interior is finished with a soft leather lining, and all sections of the upper, including the leather laces, are individually cut, assembled and stitched by hand.
Each pair is handmade in the ADI KILAV studio in Jerusalem, from cutting the leather through to the final finishing details.
