Ped travels the earth looking for unique shoe designers to add to our highly curated collection of handmade shoes. Below you'll find our current selection of
designers and the stunning beauties they've created for Spring 2022.

Cydwoq is the premier handmade shoe collection in the United States. "Old World Craftsmanship for Modern Feet". All HANDMADE by Rafi Balouzian using vegetable-tanned Italian leathers and water-based glues. Originally educated as an architect, Rafi and his son, Ari, design incredibly comfortable and timeless styles and then craft them by HAND in their California family-owned factory. The Classic Collection represents timeworn traditional shoe concepts in contemporary styling. The Cydwoq Classic collection consists of styles that provide a slightly wider fit and more casual styling than the Cydwoq Vintage line. All Cydwoqs soften, stretch and conform to your feet with wear, resulting in years of enjoyment. People often buy one pair and then become Cydwoq addicts!! Trust us when we say we are addicted to the comfort. We should know, Ped is proud to have offered Cydwoq designs for 24 years!
Made in the Marche region of Italy, Ernesto Dolani is the newest addition to our highly edited Ped shoe designers. What caught my eye with Ernesto's designs is the gorgeous, buttery Italian leathers, beautifully made clean designs, passion for details and simplicity of the Italian styling. The handmade quality, authenticity and craftsmanship is strongly apparent in Ernesto's designs. While he pays attention to contemporary arts and fashion trends, he keeps his eye on the old fashion techniques of classic Italian shoe making, what we love.

Based in Denmark, Lofina is the epitome of a family run business. The married couple Lise-Lotte and Morten Svenninggaard started Lofina after the two met going to school together to learn about shoe making at 18. After graduation, they moved to Italy and their fascination for Italy and Italian quality began. In 1996, they moved back to Denmark and began their dream, Lofina Shoes. We love the whimsical Danish styling, Italian craftsmanship, extreme quality, amazing colored and oiled, eco-friendly leathers and ultimately, their focus on comfort.
MOMA = Midnight Over My Action, is a collaboration of Gigio and Daniele Gironacci.

Combining old craftsmanship and new leather techniques, comfort reigns and MOMA styles are timeless. We are thrilled to add MOMA to our carefully curated Ped collections!
