Our Products
Designed using a 700-year-old Turkish shoemaking technique, Nida Lu shoes are handmade for comfort. Each shoe uses five different kinds of leather, sustainable materials, recycled yarn, organic and natural dyes. They are first moistened to soften the leather, making it pliable, then sewn together with cotton thread that's been soaked in beeswax. Originally made for a nomadic lifestyle, these shoes are crafted to form the foot, creating natural arch support, great for everyday wear and travel.
Our Clothing
Nida Lu clothing honors the divine feminine through sustainable practices that reject fast fashion and protect Mother Earth. We feature hand-embroidered vintage Suzanis, repurposed vintage furs, and hand-loomed Ikat from Uzbekistan, ensuring each fabric is unique, one-of-a-kind, or limited edition.
Our collections explore women's roles in mythology, history, and religion, illuminating forgotten stories from the past.
OUR TEXTILES
Nida Lu textiles are one-of-a-kind hand embroidered or hand woven by women in Turkiye, Uzbekistan and other Central Asian countries. A tradition passed down from mother to daughter since ancient times, these textiles are woven with symbolism and stories. They serve as talismans, embodying prosperity, protection, strength, and growth.
Our commitment
Nida Lu is deeply committed to sustainable practices, eschewing overproduction and thoughtless consumption. We prioritize natural fibers, organic dyes, and upcycled textiles, sourced consciously. Our small-batch production eliminates waste and mass manufacturing, honoring the Earth as sacred.
Every Nida Lu product is ethically made, supporting the communities where they're crafted. We maintain close relationships with our partners, celebrating the artisans and their traditional skills. Our mission is to share Turkish traditions and bolster our Turkish community.
At Nida Lu, honoring the divine feminine is central to all we do—from our sustainable and ethical production methods to our designs that revive forgotten stories of feminine power. This ethos guides every aspect of our brand.
