The Full Story
In 2020 we made a trip to our home country of Mexico, on the hunt for the perfect handmade traditional style of "Huarache" shoes. It was there in Guanajuato, that we came across a family of artisan shoemakers that makes the quality, leather shoes that we were looking for. We collaborated with these artisans to bring style, quality and tradition to
Piel!
