African Sandals

Discover African sandals at ADJOAA. This collection is for you if you are looking for distinctive open footwear, from woven straps and flat sandals to leather platforms and embroidered heels. Explore designs from Maliko, Shop NNO and Loza Maléombho.

African Sandals with Distinctive Shapes and Details

Explore contemporary footwear with documented Nigerian and Ivorian connections. Maliko's ALI, OGO and UJU designs draw on Northern Nigerian embroidery traditions. Shop NNO offers woven and strappy silhouettes, while Loza Maléombho's unisex KOH sandals are described as handcrafted by artisans in Côte d'Ivoire. Compare each label's construction and materials rather than treating African design as one single style.

• Leather and buckled shapes: compare Maliko's EMMY fisherman platforms, adjustable Amara sandals, and leather Mo and Chi styles.
• Embroidered designs: explore Maliko's ALI, OGO, UJU and double-strap sandals for decorative detailing across different silhouettes.
• Distinctive heels: Maliko's Oreva sandals feature a round wooden heel and leather upper, while UJU combines a round heel with a square toe.
• Woven and flat styles: Shop NNO's Ewa sandals have woven straps and a square toe; Eruvwu Flat Sandals feature two front straps and a back strap. Both list vegan leather.
• Unisex statement sandals: Loza Maléombho's KOH design combines crossed leather straps, an ankle buckle and gold-plated bronze ornaments.

How to Choose Your African Sandals

Start with the silhouette you want to wear: a flat strappy design, a buckled fisherman sandal, a platform or a heel. Pair simpler shapes with relaxed separates, or let embroidery and sculptural proportions finish an occasion outfit.

• Material: compare each product's listed leather or vegan leather composition.
• Fit: check the individual size guide, strap construction and heel or sole measurements before choosing. Review each listing's audience and sizing rather than assuming every pair is unisex.
• Timing: review production and dispatch details, especially for the made-to-order Maliko and Shop NNO styles whose listings specify production lead times.
