KarolShoes

Craft that endures. A choice that makes sense.

About us

We are a family workshop from Poland. Since 1990, we have continuously made footwear in our craft atelier in Myszków — a small town in the picturesque Kraków–Częstochowa Upland. We started modestly but with a passion that still guides us today — a path of quality, handcraft and honest workmanship.

We are not a factory. We are not mass production. All of our shoes are created in one workshop — on a side street off the main road. From the first cut of leather to the last stitch and polish, every pair passes through the hands of a craftsperson who truly knows the trade.

Who I am

My name is Karol, and I run the KarolShoes brand with my family. This isn’t a calculator business. It’s heritage, craft and a way of life born from the need to do things right — once and for good. I take care of our online presence and stay in touch with you — our customers in Poland and abroad.

Every pair that leaves our workshop is signed with heart. You can’t automate that.

Why our shoes?

• Handmade — each pair is built from scratch in our workshop.
• Made in Poland — we don’t outsource, don’t produce in Asia, and don’t use pre-made components.
• Top-grade leather — only premium European natural leather.
• Made-to-fit adjustments — selected models can be fine-tuned for a better fit.
• Repairs & restoration — nothing has to be thrown away. We can repair, restore and give your shoes a new life.
• Sustainable approach — less waste, less consumption, more quality.

They’re not just shoes. It’s a decision.

A decision to wear something made with intention. Not produced because it had to be — but because someone truly knows how and wants to do it well. In a world of fast fashion, we remain faithful to what lasts.
