Raphia

Raphia combines traditional shoe crafting techniques with modern design and natural materials.
The upper shoe is made of dried palm leaves, dyed with natural pigments and handcrafted in Morocco by local artisans. The soles are either made of sustainable leather or completely natural rubber.
The use of these natural materials and the aim to construct a durable shoe, makes it a challenging product to develop.
