I love working with leather and the handcraft of shoemaking. I studied math and chemistry before I came to England to do a fine art course in Cambridge and it was there that I got into fashion. It always bothered me that you find an amazing variety of styles in womenswear and I've always been fascinated by handmaking techniques and the quality and details in menswear, but I found it hard to find both. I started Red By Wolves to combine both - style and quality - and to apply techniques of traditional mens shoemaking to womens shoes. The style of the shoes is quite androgynous - many shoes are unisex, while there are still high heels and very feminine styles.
