Who we are
GOLI Bespoke Shoes / Custom handmade footwear
Golnaz Ebrahimi
Founder / Shoemaker
Art, design, and craftsmanship come together in the work of Golnaz Ebrahimi, known as Goli, the founder of GOLI.
An architect by training and always inspired by the worlds of art and craftsmanship, Goli dedicated herself to learning the art of bespoke shoemaking. She trained and worked alongside master shoemakers Marini and Politano in Rome, as well as master artisans in the United Kingdom, developing a deep understanding of traditional bespoke shoemaking.
Her work brings together craftsmanship and contemporary design, preserving traditional techniques while giving them a new and personal expression. For Goli, craftsmanship is living knowledge—passed from one generation to another through time, practice, and human connection.
