In our latest collaboration with Anya’s Reviews, we introduce the Woven Ballerina—a striking barefoot flat, handwoven by skilled Mexican artisans.
Each pair carries the story of hours of expert craftsmanship: vegetable-tanned leather is carefully stripped, softened, and woven by hand to create a distinctive, textured design that stands out.
The Woven Ballerina offers a fit similar to our women’s huarache line. The flexible weave gently adapts to your foot’s shape, providing all-day comfort with the grounded feel of barefoot footwear.
Fits true to size for low to mid-volume feet (refer to Anya's blog here)
FEATURES
+ Vegetable-dyed, chrome-free natural leather
+ 3 mm natural rubber outsole, with texture for grip
+ Sole features an extra insole as part of the production process, resulting in a slightly more structured sole but still with all the comfort that the Origo by Anya’s reviews huaraches feature
+ Please note that the vegetable-tanned leather used in our products is free of Chrome and may have slight color variations or darker spots. Expect a slight color patina as shoe is weathered
MATERIALS
+ Natural Leather: Sourced from local and environmentally-conscious tanneries, our natural leather is not only durable and breathable but also adapts to your foot's shape. We use chrome-free leather, dyed by hand using vegetables for color. As a result, the color is not even. Ages beautifully.
+ Natural Rubber: Utilized in our Huarache and New Derby soles, natural rubber provides flexibility, shock absorption, and excellent grip, even on wet surfaces.
SUSTAINABILITY + ETHICS
Ethical standards are at our core; our manufacturing prioritizes worker safety, above market wages, and humane treatment. We utilize small-batch production for efficient inventory management and waste reduction. Origo sources materials predominantly from North America and manufactures near our warehouse to minimize travel distances. Our eco-conscious approach extends to packaging, utilizing garden-compostable materials and innovative kraft shippers. Each pair sold also supports Amazon reforestation through our partnership with One Tree Planted.
These are my first pair of Origo shoes and they are perfect. Fit so nice, comfy and look great with every outfit.

dreamy for my eyes and feet!
I am a lifelong foot lover, and shoe lover, and these are truly dreamy for both! Every time I look down at them when I'm wearing them, I smile. And my feet are so happy with them on!

I love them!
These are so cute and I get compliments on them often. They are comfortable too. Roomy (but best for medium width feet), flexible, and just the right amount of padding (not much, but enough to not feel hard). I got the gold ones and they work with so many different colors and outfits.

Love, Love, Love!
A barefoot shoe that's also pretty - what's not to love?! They're cute and comfy. Definitely recommend these shoes.
The black isn't readily available in the UK so I had to have it shipped over, but the price was still comparable to other barefoot sandals.

So comfortable for bunions
I have serous bunions, and the woven nature of the shoe works with that tricky area. They look great and are super comfortable once they stretch to fit. Buying another pair asap!

Cute and comfortable
I was looking for a nicer summer sandal for work that had a wide toe box that I could wear a toe spacer with. These are very cute and the toe spacer is hidden by the weave. No break-in time. I had to exchange for a half a size up. I'm not looking for barefoot shoes since I have high arches which leads to corns without arch support, but these definitely fit that. Would recommend.

Nice
Fit very well. I sized down due to stretching which is a perfect fit. Minor gripe is the strap also stretched some so they are a tad loose but if I tighten it, it's too tight. Overall, it's a good fit, airy, and a very cute sandal.

I plan to get another pair.
Every time I wear these they get a lot of attention. I'm going to get a second pair.
