Strapped Greek sandals, noted for their simplicity and comfort, have managed to survive and evolve through the centuries thanks to their versatility and wide range of looks. Easy to match with any outfit, they are inspired from the history and harmony of antiquity. Made to last, they’ve traveled from illustrations on amphora to well-pedicured modern feet with sturdiness and style, withstanding the fickleness of fashion.
The smell of soft leather exudes from the modern workshops of Greek sandal makers. From the popular Ancient Greek Sandals (AGS) handmade locally by skilled craftsmen using age-old techniques revived by Christina Martini and Nicolas Minoglou to luxury Greek Di Gaia sandals, beautifully crafted by Elvira Panagiotopoulou.
From the work of Olgianna Melissinos, daughter of the famous leather craftsman, Stavros Melissinos, known for his poetry as much as his leather craftsmanship, to the Glamazons of Nastazia Dariva who began her design-work as an apprentice in her family’s footwear business in Greece. Once, created for the gods, the divinity of this ancient footwear is showcased by Zeus + Dione, a brand named after the parents of the ancient Greek goddess of love, with geometric shapes and minimalist lines to Valia Gabriel’s earthy tones that draw direct inspiration from Ancient Greek designs.
Each pair of shoes is guaranteed by Iride to be made by hand and presented in an original origami box

High-fashion Handmade Shoes by Iride De Portu
High-fashion Handmade Shoes by Iride De Portu
Stylish and psychedelic footwear to make a statement with.

Maria Korachai | August 29th, 2016
You’re standing on three different layers and everyone’s eyes are upon you. Cork, rope, lug sole. Those who believe that the shoe is the ultimate finishing touch to an outfit (and there are plenty of us) will be very excited by the flatforms in Iride De Portu‘s new collection. They don’t look like platform shoes, or like those ancient Greek-style sandals; they have a three-layered sole and straps, with bold color combinations that won’t make you at all nervous about wearing them.
The shoes made by Iride De Portu, which is also their brand name, are perfect for day or night; they can be worn with jeans, dresses or slacks. They go with everything. Not because they are invisible, but because you will want tobuild the rest of your outfit around them.
Her Italian father would always bring back clothes for her from his travels that were – shall we say – ahead of their time. In countries like Greece which generally don’t lead fashion but follow it, new trends arrive later, so Iride would wear the clothes her father brought her from Milan the following year.
After finishing school, she went to Central Saint Martins in London andIstituto Marangoni in Milan to study fashion, art and design. Her internship at the Italian Costume National as assistant to the accessory designer helped her decide that she wanted to focus on shoes. She liked the Missoni and Etro houses, the color combinations, the subtle psychedelia, and accessories “that make a statement.”
“The shoes made by Iride De Portu, which is also their brand name, are perfect for day or night; they can be worn with jeans, dresses or slacks. ”

From concept to final product - the designer stays ahead of the fashion curve and also makes bespoke shoes
In Greece, shoe designers are still a rarity. Shoes are difficult to manufacture and expensive. Iride decided not just to design shoes, but to make them herself – by hand. When she came to Greece, she attended a course on shoe-making, “so I would know how far I could take my fantasies as a designer.” So for the last year or so, she has been designing and constructing sandals, boots, high-heels, and men’s and women’s shoes to order. She also makes bespoke shoes: you come up with an image of what you would like your own, original shoes to look like and a few weeks later, you’re wearing them.
She uses leather, cork and fabric, but her environmental concerns are driving her to seek out non-leather materials. Inside the handmade imaginative origami box, which she has entered in packaging competitions, you will find a certificate that your shoes have one of the best soles in the world (Vibram), depending on the design, while all of them include a guarantee that they have been made by hand.
Apart from sandals, she makes boots, high heels, mocasins… futuristic shoes for men and women which seem to have come from the future. At her showroom in the old neighborhood of tanners and shoemakers in Psiri, you can try on different designs, smell the genuine leather and see for yourself the careful work that goes into making these unique shoes. You can also ask Iride about what we’ll be wearing next year. She will probably know from her father.
