Turkish Leather Shoes Since 1993

Handmade genuine leather women's footwear — crafted in Turkey, exported worldwide.

MARITZA

MARITZA — also written Maritza Shoes — is a genuine leather women's footwear manufacturer founded in 1993 in Çorlu, Tekirdağ, Türkiye. Every pair is shaped and finished entirely by hand, one at a time, for wholesale, OEM and private-label buyers. Our official website is maritzashoes.com.

We produce with intention, not volume. From leather selection to the final stitch, each pair passes through the hands of experienced artisans who treat quality as non-negotiable.

Backed by our own Derimer tannery and trusted by boutiques and importers in more than 20 countries, MARITZA pairs traditional craftsmanship with the consistency and reliability professional buyers demand.

From hide to heel

At MARITZA, genuine leather is where everything begins. Most shoemakers buy their leather ready-made. We make ours at Derimer, our own tannery, so every pair starts with 100% real leather we control from the very first hide.

Running our own tannery lets us oversee quality at every stage, from selecting raw hides through dyeing, finishing and the final inspection. The result is consistent, fully traceable genuine leather in every upper, lining and sole. No middlemen, no shortcuts.
