Maria carlota is a Portuguese brand of braided leather sandals, entirely handmade in Portugal in local workshops where they understand “the value of time.” Her stance: confidence without heels.
The brand tells its story through a woman, Maria Carlota, born between two worlds: the whitewashed walls of Alentejo and the colorful chaos of the city. Rustic and refined, free and structured. Her sandals, the braided Trama, the Sombra, are meant to be seasonless and effortless—timeless pieces to wear summer and winter alike (around €260-270).
Found at select Portuguese destinations: The Feeting Room and LOT in Porto and Lisbon, Caju in Comporta.
