BRAND STORY
Based in San Diego, California, Patara designs lightweight and versatile shoes inspired by tropical tendencies and the traditions of communities around the world.
Influenced by the vibrant and colorful textiles they discovered during their travels, founders, Christian and Kilian wanted to incorporate these authentic fabrics into a eco-friendly travel shoe that could be worn from the beach to the bar, and everything in between. Patara strongly believes in supporting communities by promoting their local skills and traditions. Over half the fabrics used in our collections are hand woven and sourced from weaving collectives in Asia, India, and South America. We sell our shoes in limited runs and carefully select each textile we use to ensure a truly unique footwear experience
