About ACHILLES

Uniquely Fits You In Every Step.

Footwear for women and men, designed in Cairo. We control our own production, from the first pattern to the finished pair, so every shoe is made to be worn, not just looked at.

01  Our story

Born on the factory floor.

ACHILLES grew out of a shoe-manufacturing background. We launched the brand in 2018 to bring that know-how straight to the people who wear our shoes. Good materials, honest construction and a fit you notice on the first day, at prices made for everyday life.

02  The name

We start at the heel.

In the myth, the hero's one weak point was his heel. We took his name as a reminder of where every shoe begins. Fit, support and the way a pair carries you through the day come first. Everything else is built on top of that.

03  What we stand for

Four things we don't compromise on.

I

We make our own

We control our production, so we choose the materials, the last and the finish on every pair.

II

Fit first

Every design starts with how it fits. The aim is a shoe that feels right from the first wear, not after a month.

III

Premium, accessible

Real leather and careful construction at high-street prices. Premium footwear made for everyday life, not only for special occasions.

IV

New every season

Collections move with the season. New drops land through the year, from city heels to winter boots.

04  How we make

Designed in-house. Made to our standard.

Every ACHILLES pair starts in our studio in Cairo. Each line is made where it is made best, and checked against the same standard.

Men

Made in our own factory

Our men's line is made in our own factory in Egypt. Pattern, cutting, stitching and finishing all happen under one roof.

Women

Born in-house, made abroad

Our women's line is designed in-house in Cairo, then made by partner factories abroad to our exact spec, materials and fit.
