Manufacturer · Gaziantep, Türkiye Ede is a third-generation family atelier in Gaziantep that makes all-leather barefoot shoes by hand — and supplies them to retailers and brands as wholesale cartons or one pair at a time, under your brand or ours. Request a partnership proposalSee the atelier What we make Every Ede shoe is built the same way: a full-grain calfskin upper, calfskin lining, a 1 mm buffalo leather insole and a 5–8 mm recycled buffalo leather outsole, hot-pressed with a traction pattern so it grips without rubber. A solid copper rivet passes through the sole at the ball of the foot. Zero drop from heel to toe; an anatomically wide toe box with no taper at the little toe. On that last we cut loafers, penny loafers, oxfords, ballet flats, flats, sneakers, moccasins, boat shoes, chukkas, Chelsea boots, ankle boots and tall lace-up boots, for women (US 3.5–12) and men (US 6–14), in smooth, crazy, nubuck, suede and antique-finished calfskins. It is the buffalo-sole shoe that has been worn around Gaziantep for centuries, made the way it always was. How we work with partners Both ways, your logo can be laser-engraved on the insole and the box is white-label. Private label details. What we do not do We do not produce partner designs, samples from sketches, or other lasts. The offer is any Ede model, in any of our leathers, carrying your brand. It keeps the atelier doing the one thing it does well, and it means you can start with a single pair rather than a tooling budget. Prices and lead times Trade prices are printed on every product page: $99 to $129 per pair, and $10 less per pair by the carton. Production is 5 business days for single pairs and 15 for cartons; transit to the US or Europe is usually 7–9 days. Duties and taxes are paid before the box leaves Türkiye. Questions Where exactly are the shoes made? In Gaziantep, in south-eastern Türkiye, in a workshop run by the same family since 1950. Ede's partner has documented eight months of production there; the Process page walks through the stations. Can you make my own design or add a rubber sole? No. We make Ede's own models with the leather sole that defines them. A rubber protector can be added by any cobbler locally if a customer wants it. What is the minimum order? None for dropship — one pair is an order. Wholesale pricing starts at a carton of ten pairs of shoes or six pairs of boots. Do you offer samples? Order any single pair as a sample at the page price. Its price is credited back on your first carton order. Which certifications or materials documents can you provide? Material declarations for the calfskin and buffalo leather on request. We make no medical or orthopaedic claims for the shoes. Start here Channel, market, the models you have in mind and the retail price you work at. We answer with a written proposal — models, prices, delivery terms and a sample plan — before any call.Handmade Barefoot Shoe Manufacturer
