SSEKO DESIGNS is a footwear & accessories company based in Uganda. We produce beautiful, unique leather goods including sandals, handbags and accessories.

It all started with a pair of sandals. Ssekos are the sandals with interchangeable fabric straps and endless styling possibilities.

People love their Ssekos. The base of every sandal is the same, but the sandals can be tied in hundreds of ways and the straps come in a variety of colors, patterns and materials, so every Sseko sandal is totally unique. From a jaunt in the park to a walk down the aisle, Ssekos are the ultimate in convertible footwear.

But the reason people are passionate about their Ssekos (and they can’t wait to share our story with their friends!) Is because they are hand-made by a group of young women in Uganda who make the sandals to earn money to finance their university education. Every woman has a dream. When she is given the opportunity to pursue those dreams, we are collectively walking towards a brighter and more just and beautiful world. We believe in the power of business to help consumers change the world, one sandal at a time.

Every Sseko has a story.

These women are recent secondary school graduates in Uganda. They work with Sseko during their gap year to produce beautiful handmade sandals to earn money that will go directly towards their university education. These women will not make sandals forever. They will go on to become doctors, lawyers, politicians, writers and teachers who will bring change to their country and ours.

Every Sseko purchase empowers these young women to pursue

their dreams and end the cycle of poverty. One step at a time.

Ssekos are an extraordinary one-of-a-kind sandal featuring a handmade leather sole with five “anchor points” for threading the straps through to create unique styles. Our straps come in a wide variety of colors, patterns, & materials. We release new straps

every six weeks.

There is no limit to how many ways you can style your Ssekos. Every woman who wears Ssekos is a co-creator of her Sseko sandals. One sandal. Endless possibilities!

Black or Brown Cotton, silks, prints, oh my!
