The creators of Ancient Greek Sandals built a brand that honors their heritage. Taking heavy inspiration from the beauty and elegance of Cretan islands, Greek founders Christina and Nikolas have composed pieces that hero traditional techniques. Their collection is inspired by ancient Greek Gods, Goddesses, myths, pottery and sculptures and their love for Greek history combined with their technical skills produced a delicate yet bold collection. Both founders’ expertise plays a pivotal role in the creation of the Ancient Greek Sandals brand. Christina’s history as a shoe designer for Balenciaga, Louis Vuitton and Iris srl contributes greatly to the design of each sandal, with Nikolas’s experience in running an established footwear business allowed them to join forces to establish an iconic sandal. The brand pride themselves on their chemical free process, which allows the natural tan leather to age beautifully. The inner wedge elevates the sandal, providing comfort and lift to every step.
