Re-Arizona Suede Slide Sandals

By Kwara
$112.00 USD
THE STORY

The Re-Arizona reinterprets a familiar silhouette through a distinctly Mexican lens — hand-braided suede straps, a contoured footbed, and a sturdy platform sole that grounds every step. A thoughtfully reimagined design in soft tan suede with signature woven detailing and classic twin buckles for an adjustable fit. Wear them with wide-leg jeans and a cropped tank for weekend errands, a breezy linen dress for warm afternoons, or relaxed trousers and a tee when comfort is non-negotiable.

Handcrafted in Michoacán by skilled Mexican artisans, this special-edition slide is a proud statement of craft and cultural identity — made with intention, made to be heard. Like all Kwara huaraches, it's built with lead-free leather, a 4mm memory foam insole, and an ergonomic sole, carrying over 50 years of family tradition in every pair.

ABOUT THE BRAND

Kwara was born from a need, not an idea.

Its founder, Andrés, grew up in Michoacán, wearing huaraches at home with the streets of his hometown as his backdrop. But the discomfort of traditional pairs meant they lived more in memory than in daily life. Years later, searching for a way back to his roots, he discovered that his great-grandfather had been a huarache maker — a family thread nearly lost to tragedy. Picking it back up became something larger than a personal project.

In his words: "I realized that if I didn't do it, no one else would. It wasn't just for me. It was for my grandfather, for my great-grandfather — and for everyone who deserves to walk with pride."

Every pair of Kwara is handmade in Michoacán by more than 100 artisans. Lead-free leather. Recycled fabrics. More than 30 processes refined across generations. The result is footwear built to be worn, not preserved — comfortable enough for everyday life, rooted enough to carry a lineage. Kwara stands for craft that honors where it came from, and for makers expanding thoughtfully without losing their footing. In a market crowded with shortcuts, the brand is a reminder that heritage and modern design aren't at odds — they're stronger together.

Today, Kwara is growing — online, through marketplaces, and in collaborations — while remaining firmly planted in the land where it began. Because, as Andrés puts it, there is no future without memory.

"Our steps hold memory. And that is what makes us walk differently."
