Indonesian Shoe Brands To Get On Your Radar
Functional, fashion-forward, and handmade, these are the labels to watch.
By Sarah Adriana,
Indonesia’s independent fashion scene has always been a quiet powerhouse. but in recent months, its homegrown shoe brands have started breaking into international feeds, faster than ever. Thanks to TikTok hauls, Instagram styling reels, and a growing appetite for non-Western fashion narratives, these labels are reaching stylish consumers well beyond Jakarta or Bandung. Many of these brands are run by founders who prioritise design that’s both functional and fashion-forward — heels you can walk in, flats that don’t feel flat, and silhouettes that hold their own without shouting.
There’s also something refreshing about the way these brands approach inclusivity and comfort. Several Indonesian labels are designing with different foot types and sizes in mind, without sacrificing aesthetics. Some are tapping into nostalgia through ‘90s-inspired kitten heels, while others are experimenting with sculptural forms and unexpected textures like denim or mesh. Across the board, the shoes are often handmade, priced fairly, and come in colourways that go beyond the standard black or beige.
In a fashion landscape that’s increasingly global yet somehow homogenous, these Indonesian shoe brands are offering something different: style with substance, and intention without pretension.
Here is a round up of Indonesian shoe brands to know, if you’re heading to Indonesia soon, or just want to diversify your shoe game — consider this your starting point.
NAKEDSOL
Think of Nakedsol as that one friend you see everyday, but never get tired of. Founded in 2017, the Jakarta-based shoe brand focuses on minimalist designs without leaning towards plain. They have a wide variety of everyday classics to choose from, each pair elevated with trendy detailing for a refined timelessness.
Subtle geometrical shapes and lines imbue a sense of play and versatility – think knotted strappy sandals, open-toed heels with cut-outs, and two-toned loafers that easily take you from day to night. Whether you’re dressing up for the office or keeping it casual for cafe-hopping with your friends, we bet you’ll find your next favourite pair at Nakedsol.
Where to buy them: At the With Love boutique at 142 Neil Road, or on Shopee Singapore.
FAYT
Consider Fayt (pronounced “faith”) your affordable solution to dressing classy. Rooted in empowering women to feel confident and stand tall – both figuratively and literally – their elegant, feminine collections are suitable for everyday wear, yet dressy enough for days you want to be extra.
There are plenty of pickings for the ultra girly girls, from bejewelled kitten heels and flats, chic patent mules, to soft sling back heels in multiple colours of tweed. The brand’s newly-released Zoya heels come with delicate lace vamps and straps offered in black, white, and nude. Equally sophisticated are their Oxford mules in glossy leather with pearls as an added touch.

TAKKAN OFFICIAL
Don’t let the dainty florals and delicate straps fool you, Takkan Official is quietly making some of the most versatile and intentional shoes coming out of Indonesia right now. Founded by Catharine Silitonga in late 2021, the brand only started becoming active in shaping their identity in mid-2023.
Rooted in a sense of soft glamour, the label leans into femininity without being fussy. Think Mary Janes with a sculptural edge, metallic heels that don’t scream for attention but still turn heads, and square-toe slip-ons that don’t feel like corporate polish. Takkan’s pieces are built around texture and detail — embroidered florals, satin finishes, iridescent sheens, and a surprisingly wide colour range. Their viral bestseller, the Nata, now comes in 17 shades, from classic creams to mossy greens and blushy pinks.
Primarily an online operation, Takkan does have a small in-person presence in Bandung, Indonesia. For Singapore-based shoe obsessives, a quick DM is all it takes to get a pair shipped your way.

Based in Jakarta, the label balances playful charm with wearability. Their silhouettes are sweet without veering into saccharine territory: dainty kitten heels, chic slip-on flats, and softly structured designs that won’t destroy your feet after an afternoon out.
There’s a pop culture wink to everything they do, their shoes bear names like “Kate Moss” and “Rory Gilmore,” a subtle nod to the muses and moods that shape their aesthetic. Prices stay firmly in the accessible range, and they ship worldwide — so yes, your next go-to pair is just a few clicks away.

LEGACY ARCHIVE
If Sex and the City taught us anything, it’s that a great pair of shoes can carry a storyline and Legacy Archive seems to have taken that to heart. Launched in January 2024 and based in Jakarta, this Indonesian label takes inspiration from film and television’s most iconic fashion moments. Their collections pay subtle homage to characters like Carrie Bradshaw and other screen style icons, translating cinematic energy into shoes you’d actually wear IRL. Expect soft elegance with a modern pulse: mules with just the right amount of curve, kitten heels that flirt with vintage, and flats that feel more elevated than everyday.
While the designs lean feminine and polished, they’re not costume-y. There’s a clean minimalism at play, like a supporting role that steals the scene without trying too hard. Whether you’re dressing for a first date, an art show opening, or just trying to feel a little more put-together at brunch, Legacy Archive offers pairs that subtly dial up the look.

ADORABLE PROJECTS OFFICIAL
The name might suggest sweet and playful and yes, Adorable Projects does deliver on that front — but this Jakarta-based label also knows how to build shoes with substance. Their collections run the full spectrum: from strappy heels and easygoing sandals to chunky boots and everyday sneakers, each pair feels considered in both design and comfort. They’ve even carved out their own space in the leather game with a Genuine Leather collection, pieces crafted from real leather, but priced to be accessible. Think sturdy soles, clean lines, and materials that actually last longer than a few wears.
Then there’s their most head-turning drop: the Victoria Finger shoe, a five-toed silhouette that toes the line (literally) between fashion experiment and everyday essential. Love it or hate it, it’s a conversation starter and surprisingly comfy, too.
If your wardrobe’s in need of shoes that can switch between office, date night, and weekend errands without feeling redundant, Adorable Projects might just be your next go-to.

SHOP AMARA SOL
Trendy without compromising style? Amara Sol is for the woman who understands that power can be quiet, and that great shoes don’t need to shout. Rooted in a sense of bold femininity, the Indonesian shoe label crafts pieces that are as sculptural as they are wearable. Think sleek mules, minimalist heels, and understated silhouettes that feel just as appropriate in a boardroom as they do on a city sidewalk. There’s an elegance to their shoes that doesn’t try too hard, each design strikes a careful balance between modern edge and classic restraint.
But beyond aesthetics, what really sets Amara Sol apart is its philosophy. Every pair is made with intention — from silhouette to finish — celebrating individuality, ease, and the kind of quiet confidence that comes from wearing something that fits just right.

If your shoe racks have been feeling a little too safe lately, Morrs__ is the Indonesian brand ready to shake things up.
Sitting somewhere between edgy and elegant, Morrs leans into sculptural silhouettes and unexpected design choices, think sharply cut loafers, structured flats, and platforms that play with proportion in all the right ways. There’s a distinct coolness to their collections, but it’s never overdone. Their standout bestseller, the Juno Flats, hits that sweet spot between soft and bold: delicate bow detailing, precise stitching, and a form that feels both architectural and wearable.
They’ve even dropped the pair in eight colour ways (yes, including denim) because why stop at one? With a catalogue that includes everything from elevated basics to quiet statement pieces, Morrs is low-key becoming a go-to for fashion-forward types who want something off the beaten path.
