Himba Fashion shoesareunique in their kind, including the sizes offered. We dress all feet from size 33 to size 49, so it's hard not to find a shoe that fits you, because our shoes know no bounds or body diversity.
Kizomba was born in the 1980s in Angola, the result of a fusion of traditional Angolan semba music and the zouk rhythms of the French Antilles. More than a dance, it is an intimate language, a subtle exchange between two bodies, a moment of complicity and respect. Kizomba invites gentleness, fluidity, and a deep connection between leader and follower, where each step is a dialogue.
Yet, despite all this richness, dancers struggled to find shoes that supported these precise and sensual movements, offering both comfort and elegance.
This is where Himba comes in, born from the intuition and courage of an Angolan woman, Zilda Vicente, a dancer and teacher, who sensed this void, the absence of shoes designed specifically for this unique dance. With a clear vision: to create shoes that are not just accessories, but true dance partners, and a symbol of urban elegance, a bridge between African roots and modernity.
Himba is the alliance of noble leather and artisanal fabrics from Africa and elsewhere , an ode to roots worn with pride. Each pair tells a story, that of a bridge between tradition and modernity, between the African continent and Europe.
Handmade in a small family workshop in Portugal, our shoes are the result of unique expertise. Each artisan works in the best conditions, with care and respect, ensuring every detail is perfect.
But Himba is also the quest for ultimate comfort because dance requires stability, flexibility, and endurance. The integrated cushioning and platforms designed for perfect balance—everything has been designed to ensure your feet never feel tired, even after a full night on the dance floor.
Today, Himba dresses the feet of all those who vibrate to the rhythm of kizomba, semba, and ginga. From sizes 34 to 49, men and women can find their ideal shoe, a reflection of themselves, their history, and their identity. More than a brand, Himba is a global community, united by passion, culture, and authenticity.
When you wear Himba shoes, it's not just a shoe you put on; it's a faithful companion, an extension of your dancing soul, a tribute to the traditions that move you. Each step becomes a statement, a celebration of diversity and craftsmanship.
Dare to embrace committed elegance, dare to embrace uncompromising comfort. Enter the Himba universe, where dance becomes art, and where every movement tells a story.
