Kanna Shoes

For 30 years, Kanna has manufactured all its collections in the brand's birthplace, La Encarnación, located in the municipality of Caravaca de la Cruz (Murcia). This area is considered the cradle of espadrille making and the use and production of jute.

The entire production process is carried out entirely in Spain, working with the best workshops in the country and with local artisans, who use a centuries-old technique called buttonhole stitch, a hand-sewing technique by which the leather is joined to the jute floor.

At Kanna, we are committed to local development and tradition. We are passionate about the satisfaction of a job well done and proud of our values. We are dedicated to our customers and constantly strive for excellence in the products we bring to market.

We are a team of over 70 people dedicated to the quality of our designs, the production process, and excellence in our finishing. A united team that works with passion to develop unique products that provide maximum comfort and satisfaction after purchase.

Every day we strive for innovation in manufacturing, with the sole aim of protecting and preserving the environment and always keeping in mind the importance of our heritage.

At Kanna, we continue to do much of our work by hand, combining it with the latest technology. With the experience and skill of our artisans, we achieve a high level of quality in every piece, material, and finish, making each one unique.

The current espadrille-making process retains many similarities to that of centuries past. The hand-stitching technique known as buttonhole stitch is the most distinctive and easily identifiable feature in our summer collections. This buttonhole stitch, crafted by artisans in the northwest region of Murcia, primarily involves joining the various pieces of natural leather to the jute sole. Every single one of our products that features this stitching has been handmade by our artisans.

Recognizing the value of our raw materials, we work with the best suppliers, who treat the hides with the utmost respect for the environment, not only through the mechanisms used in the tanning and manufacturing process, but also in the dyes and products used for the treatments applied. Only in this way can we guarantee the quality of our leather and our commitment to the environment.

Kanna is a brand with a clear commitment to environmental respect, which is why we only use natural materials in our collections.

Jute fiber, cotton canvas, linen, silk, and raffia (among others) are some of the most commonly used materials in our products. And of course, we also use the highest quality leathers in our designs.

Each season, we select fashionable materials, always keeping market trends in mind. Once they have been cut and stitched (the process of sewing the different leather pieces together), we infuse Kanna's personality into our products.
