 Press Releases

  • Esthé Leather Co., a South African luxury footwear brand based in Stellenbosch, is proud to showcase its handcrafted leather footwear at NY NOW, introducing international buyers to a unique approach to modern footwear design.

    Combining traditional leather craftsmanship with contemporary style, Esthé Leather Co. creates footwear that celebrates individuality, comfort, and timeless appeal. Each design reflects the skill of South African artisans and the brand’s commitment to quality materials, thoughtful construction, and beautiful details.

    A defining feature of Esthé Leather Co. is its personalised colour customisation. Many signature styles can be created in a wide selection of premium leather colours, allowing customers to move beyond standard footwear choices and create combinations that reflect their own personality, wardrobe, and lifestyle.

    For retailers, Esthé Leather Co. offers opportunities to collaborate on colour concepts, product selections, and collections suited to specific markets and customer preferences. Supported by an in-house design team that continually develops new styles and explores fresh design directions, the brand brings creativity and flexibility to every partnership.

    At NY NOW, Esthé Leather Co. will share the story of South African craftsmanship and demonstrate how luxury footwear can be both personal and beautifully made.

  • Beyond classic leather footwear, Esthé Leather Co. continues to expand its collection with innovative designs that respond to the changing needs of today's customers.

    At NY NOW, the brand will showcase its barefoot shoe collection, combining natural movement principles with refined aesthetics. Designed with comfort and foot-friendly construction in mind, these styles feature flexible soles, lightweight construction, and a shape that allows the foot to move naturally — while maintaining the sophistication expected from premium leather footwear.

    Esthé Leather Co. believes that comfort and elegance should exist together. The barefoot collection demonstrates that functional footwear can also be beautifully crafted, stylish, and suitable for everyday wear.

    The brand also offers selected creations using exotic leathers, including genuine ostrich leather. Recognised for its distinctive texture, softness, and durability, ostrich leather adds a unique luxury element while showcasing the expertise of South African leather artisans.

    With an extensive range of premium leather colours, innovative designs, and a commitment to craftsmanship, Esthé Leather Co. creates footwear experiences that go beyond conventional retail offerings.

    Every pair tells a story of quality, creativity, and individuality — from the materials selected to the hands that carefully craft each shoe in Stellenbosch.

    The company’s in-house design team plays an important role in this journey, continually developing new styles and refining existing collections to meet evolving customer expectations. This combination of craftsmanship, innovation, and creativity allows Esthé Leather Co. to collaborate with retailers and customers seeking something distinctive.

    Through its participation at NY NOW, Esthé Leather Co. looks forward to connecting with international buyers, retailers, and design professionals who value authentic products, South African craftsmanship, and footwear created with purpose.
