About Us
ABOUT MOTARA FW
Motara FW began with a quiet conviction: true style should feel effortless and deeply personal. We design handcrafted footwear — slippers and loafers shaped with clean lines, calm textures, and details that whisper rather than shout. Each pair carries the influence of three places we love: the warmth of Lagos mornings, the restraint of London afternoons, and the exacting light of southern Spain.
Our velvet loafers, embroidered slippers, and personalized pairs are made in small, deliberate batches between our Lagos and Andalusian ateliers. Artisans in Nigeria and Spain — some from families who have shaped footwear for generations — cut Ghanaian velvet, Italian suede, hand-dyed adire, and fine Spanish calf by hand. Every silhouette is created with intention, built to feel familiar from the first wear, like it was always meant for your feet.
Whether you prefer ready-to-wear styles or want to design your own custom slippers or personalized loafers, each pair becomes a quiet signature — something distinct yet easy, made to belong only to you. Our footwear moves naturally through slow mornings and long dinners, airport corridors and garden gatherings, workdays, weekends, and the moments in between.
We create for people who believe that less can hold far more, who value depth over excess, and who want shoes that feel calm, honest, and unmistakably theirs. This is our way of making something simple, meaningful, and lasting.
If you’d like help choosing a style or creating a pair of your own, write to us anytime at hello@motarafw.com — we answer every note ourselves.
