Amanu Leather Sandals & Belts

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Amanu known for?

Amanu is a Los Angeles-founded brand crafting minimalist, handmade leather accessories. Each piece is made by skilled artisans in Kenya and across Africa, blending traditional craftsmanship with clean, modern design and a focus on sustainable materials.

What materials does Amanu use?

Amanu works primarily in natural and vegetable-dyed leathers, along with suede and embossed croc and python finishes. Hardware such as toe rings and buckles is individually handcrafted, so every piece carries subtle, unique variation.

How do Amanu pieces fit?

Amanu sandals come in whole sizes only, so the brand recommends sizing down for half sizes and up for a high arch or wide foot. For belts, order your true size for the waist, or size up to wear them lower on the hips.

What does Amanu offer?

The collection centers on handcrafted sandals with signature sculptural toe rings, alongside statement leather and suede belts with organically shaped buckles. Styles range from minimal everyday pieces to more decorative, glamorous designs.

How do I care for Amanu leather and suede?

Keep leather and suede away from water and wipe leather gently with a dry cloth. Brush suede to refresh the nap, use a dry cloth on hardware, and store pieces in a cloth bag in a cool, dry place.

How can I style Amanu pieces?

Amanu sandals pair easily with sundresses, linen, and denim for warm-weather looks, while the belts add definition over dresses, blazers, and tailoring. The handcrafted hardware lends an elevated finishing touch to any outfit.
