Upper in 100% silk velvet, hand-loomed by a women's collective in Uzbekistan. Leather sole with 3/4 inch heel. Handmade in Istanbul in a small, family-owned workshop, by cobblers whose families have practiced the craft for generations.

Our Women's Smoking Shoes run true to size. We only make full sizes, so if you wear a half size, order the next whole size down (for example, a US 8.5 should order a 38). Expect them to feel quite snug at first, but stretch to a cushy custom fit after time and wear. Our Kilim Smoking Shoes tend to fit best on medium to wide feet, but do stretch beautifully width-wise to accommodate most feet-- much like a fine leather shoe.

We believe that beautiful vintage Kilim textiles, made largely by women artists, deserve to be repurposed and preserved for admiration and enjoyment. Artemis makes beautiful things in a slow and careful way, using a treasured team of artisan suppliers and cobblers to ensure that their chain of production is hands-on, handmade, and brings as much pride as the products themselves.
