Made by Mexican hands

The name "Huarache" comes from the Purépecha word "kwarachi," meaning "sandal." Originally worn by the indigenous peoples of Mexico, they were known for their simplicity, durability, and functionality. In the 1960s, Huaraches became popular with the hippie lifestyle in North America, as they fit perfectly with a natural, alternative lifestyle.

Today, Huaraches remain popular and represent a sustainable alternative in the fashion world. They combine traditional craftsmanship, timeless style and eco-friendly materials, making them a conscious choice for modern consumers.

This is how they are created:

Huaraches are made in Mexico by artisans in small, family-run workshops. The manufacturing process is almost entirely by hand, making each pair a unique and high-quality product.

The leather straps for our Huaraches are carefully hand-cut by skilled artisans. This process ensures that they are sturdy, precise and beautifully finished.

Each pair of Huaraches is crafted with dedication and passion by skilled artisans who take pride in their craftsmanship. Their attention to detail ensures that each sandal is not only beautifully crafted, but also treasured in Mexico and around the world.
