About

Deborah Kiwi Footwear is an independent footwear design studio founded by Dutch-born designer Deborah Kiwi.

​

With a background in Industrial Design, Deborah approaches footwear not simply as a functional object, but as a medium for experimentation, where curiosity takes center stage. Her work explores unconventional proportions, sculptural silhouettes and unexpected constructions, challenging familiar ideas of how a shoe should look and function.

​

Based in Tel Aviv, Deborah brings together industrial design, craftsmanship and conceptual thinking to develop footwear that sits between fashion, art and design.

​

Each design is developed and handcrafted with an emphasis on considered construction, distinctive form and wearability. All footwear is made to order, allowing the studio to produce each piece individually rather than through mass production.
