Our sandals are made exclusively from high-quality genuine leather. The soles are lightweight and durable, suitable for everyday wear as well as walks on beaches and cobblestone alleys. Every pair is handcrafted in our workshop in Chalkidona, Thessaloniki.
Leather sandals require minimal care. Avoid prolonged exposure to water and let them dry naturally if they get wet. For cleaning, use a soft damp cloth. For extra protection, you can apply a leather conditioner once a season. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
All designs are original creations by Emmanuela Alevizopoulou Georgios and are available exclusively at emmanuela.shoes (and at the domains leather-sandals.com, griechische-sandale.de). We do not sell through any other store or marketplace.
For wholesale orders, please contact us at info@leather-sandals.com.
