Last Valentineās Day, I wanted something thoughtful for my mum. Not the usual bag or perfume. I wanted handmade slippers. Something simple, beautiful and personal.
The problem was, very shoemaker I knew was on the Island. And from Okota, that is not a quick trip.
After searching around, I stumbled on a brand called Vanhili. They make handcrafted unisex shoes, and their designs immediately caught my attention.
I decided to try them out for the first time and I have no regrets.
The finishing was neat. The leather quality felt solid. The fit was perfect. And the pricing was surprisingly affordable for custom work.
If youāre in Okota and looking for:
ā¢ Custom slippers
ā¢ Handmade sandals
ā¢ Unisex designs
ā¢ Something thoughtful for a gift
You donāt have to travel all the way to the Island.
Sometimes the best finds are closer than you think.
If youāve tried any good shoemakers around Okota, share your plug. Letās help each other find quality without the long commute.
