Yosi Samra

A second-generation shoe designer, Yosi Samra grew up in his father's factory in New York City and spent countless hours absorbing the fine art of shoemaking. So when it came time for him to launch his own eponymous footwear line in 2009, he was more than prepared.

Samra was a pioneer designer of what would become the popular fold-up ballet flat movement, elevating the style into one that was just as superior in structure and design as it was comfortable and convenient. Thanks to the premium he placed on high-quality genuine leathers, unique details, and cutting-edge fashion, the Yosi Samra brand quickly eclipsed its competitors and expanded to include matching children's ballet flats,

The brand is youthful, trendy and fun - and the Yosi Samra headquarters are certainly a reflection of that.
