Reimagined Spring Strappy Sandals

Shaka Launches Innovative Footwear For the SS20 Season

Shaka explores innovative silhouettes with its latest collection of breathable footwear designs made with rugged elements as well. The sandals are ready for the warmer seasons and decorated with bold patterning for those who want to make a statement.

The South African brand launched in the 90s and draws inspiration from traditional African craft and the traditional footwear worn by the Zulu tribe. It relaunched in 2013 and has since produced footwear with the same classic designs and durable materials. The makeup includes webbed detail at the uppers, comfortable sole units with cushioning, and adjusted silhouettes for better fit depending on the wearers. This SS20 season, the offerings include militaristic options as well as patterns including cow and leopard.
