over the weekend we visited the ladies of Ina Grau. it was a few hours of discussing their process of making, designing, and means of production. like us, this duo is made up of friends - Crystal Quinn and Luisa Fernanda Garcia-Gomez - and they're making everything themselves, but unlike us they're breaking new ground by making what seems un-makable...SHOES! over a year ago, they set out to teach themselves how shoes are crafted- by hand. they created patterns, and learned about sizing, materials, and construction all on their own. the product is a small line of shoes coming this fall, and can we say, WE CAN'T WAIT! they are not only beautifully made but mindfully crafted. we think they might just take over the world- and we're totally ok with that. check out progress on their website: Ina Grau
