The Malkia Steps—named after the Swahili word for “Queen”—are the crown jewel of the Zinge Afrika footwear collection. The design features a stunning, high-profile beaded panel that follows the curve of your foot, accented by artistic teardrop cutouts and a vibrant palette of green, gold, crimson, and obsidian black.
Why You’ll Love Malkia Steps:
-
Intricate “Shield” Beadwork: Each bead is individually hand-stitched by master artisans, creating a durable and high-impact design that celebrates the richness of African heritage.
-
Supportive Gladiator Silhouette: The higher profile and adjustable leather ankle ties ensure a secure, custom fit that feels as good as it looks.
-
Supple Genuine Leather: Built on a foundation of high-grade tan leather that is soft on the skin and sturdy enough for all-day wear.
-
Ethical & Sustainable: Handcrafted to promote slow fashion and support local artisanal communities, ensuring your style has a positive impact.
Styling Recommendations: The Malkia Steps are a true focal piece. They pair beautifully with shorter hemlines—think a mini skirt or tailored shorts—to fully showcase the intricate beadwork. For a more relaxed “Boho-African” look, wear them with a side-slit maxi dress or cropped linen trousers.
