These sandals are handmade by artisans in Africa to provide fair wage jobs to women- which is a mission we can get behind!
These sandals are made with ultra-soft goatskin leather for the upper straps so there should be little to no break-in time for these. They're made to fit snugly at first so that the leather will literally take the shape of your foot. Enjoy the heavenly comfort. Customers usually fit one size up in this style.
The default leather color for most styles is espresso. That said, the leather is hand-dyed, and each dye lot is slightly different, so the leather color may vary, ranging from dark brown to almost black. With time and use, the leather color will lighten.
