OH, HELLO


Take Your Shoes to the Next Level
After night of debate, trial, error, and mass experimentation, I have completed the perfected prototype of what I now call the "Leather Wing Boot Strap". As with all of the accessories that I make, the boot straps are meant to enhance the shoes that you already own - changing the silhouette, and creating removable detail.

I tested the boot straps out on a variety of different shoe types, and because I used elastic (where usually there is a chain or another strip of leather), they are able to accommodate a wide range of heels from flats to wedges to stilettos.

I've made an (un)informational video shown below, and the boot straps are now available for purchase on my etsy store HERE.
