Lara Guina uses gold details in their shoes
A Portuguese footwear brand focusing on quality and elegance
The footwear Lara Guina was created in the central zone of Portugal, through the hands of a young businesswoman who decided to embrace an old passion for footwear design, engaging passionately through the whole process of the creation of shoes.

The brand presents male and female collections.

The male collection is timeless and mostly classic. The shoes are all in leather, with some of them being hand painted, and all items can be personalized according to the client´s taste. The brand focuses on handmade processes, namely using the Blake system.

The last innovative feature of the brand was the creation of Portuguese guitars in 19 karat gold handmade filigree and the application of these in some male models. Thus, these shoes started to be called "the most Portuguese of all Portugal-made shoes." Given the great enthusiasm by customers, the brand is developing other Portuguese symbols. These shoes are handmade, most of the leathers are painted by hand, the soles are sewn by Blake system and fully customizable according to the client's taste.

The female collection, also presenting leather products, has a more casual look mostly concerned with the most dynamic fashion trends. The most recent women’s collection also selects high quality raw materials and combines them with a high level of comfort, being a bolder and more sophisticated line, investing in sparkling elements.

The brand’s inspiration comes from a combination of elements, always combining the elegance of the models with the quality of the materials in order to ensure the satisfaction of the clients.
