Pink Leopard Print Oxford by Lordess

Wildly chic and oh-so-darling, Native features a timeless combination of large leopard print on genuine calf hair and soft, pastel-hued leather in powder pink.

Native comes with two shoelaces for a versatile look:

• classic, waxed laces in black
• satin laces in rich rosé

Features

• Genuine leather for the insole, lining and upper
• Italian nubuck leather for the outsole
• Genuine calf hair
• Two versatile shoelaces, so you can easily switch up your style
• A small elastic sewn at the ankle collar/counter to prevent any potential blistering or skin damage
• A raised strip of padding in the center insole for increased arch support, comfort and overall, a better fit
• Upper-leather that does not exceed 1.1mm in thickness to provide softness and comfort, while ensuring durability

The more you love them, the more they love you back. Due to the nature of genuine leather, each Lordess pair will slowly start taking the shape of your feet, while the upper leather continues to soften- making your new pair more comfortable and naturally customized for your feet with each wear.

Every Lordess pair’s genuine leather outsole has a thin, clear protective seal. Simply pull the strip off before wearing your new pair outdoors.

Returns with the missing protective seal will not be refunded.

Why choose genuine leather shoes? 

Genuine leather is healthier for your feet.
Breathability is one of the most valuable properties of leather. When your shoes breathe, so do your feet. Leather has the ability to absorb, and later release sweat and humidity—helping prevent foot odor from forming.

Genuine leather provides a much better fit.
Within time, genuine leather shoes will mold to the shape of your feet—resulting in lasting comfort and a personalized feeling.

Genuine leather is more durable.
Genuine leather shoes will outlast synthetics without question—making your purchase a great investment in the long run.

We assure you will not run into any significant inconsistencies or imperfections within our styles, however, because each pair is genuinely handcrafted- there is always a little room for human error. Human hand can never be as precise as a machine. The “imperfections” you might come across simply confirm Lordess shoes are handcrafted by artisans, indeed- not by machines.

Lordess Limited-Edition, Handcrafted Shoes

"There is a a great sense of respect for the design and development process driven by true passion, care, and curiosity here. Each pair of our shoes reflects that. I work with a 'stop and smell the roses' mentality, not 'speed to market.' My appreciation for handmade craftsmanship goes beyond words. Each stitch, each measurement and cut - and the ability of such work to uplift our mood and raise our self-esteem while being all the way down at our feet. Fascinating."

- Ezgi Todurge, Founder

Here at Lordess, our core values are the main drivers of our design and development process. We are advocates of slow fashion and authenticity.
