'Kilim' Boots Make an Entrance in European Fashion

— April 7, 2010 — Celebs
Called 'Kilim' boots, these boots are authentic and handmade. These beautiful boots are partly made from hand-woven Atlas Kilim Berbere and partly made from soft leather.

Made by shoe craftsmen in Morocco, Kilim boots are receiving widespread adoption in Europe. Each pair is unique and available in many different colors. These boots are not made for mass production; rather, they are made specially for a boutique in The Netherlands. If you're looking for a new kind of shoe to sport, check out the Kilim Boots at Hella International Shoehouse.
