Calla Haynes travels around France to find vintage Berber rugs to upcycle into her one-of-a-kind slippers. In the case of this Niki Babouche pair, the fabric is sourced just for ABASK. She sees the process as a form of double recycling, as the rugs – made from recycled textiles – are then repurposed once more into footwear. They are handcrafted in Morocco by skilled weavers and shoemakers, where details such as lambskin linings and soles are added. Due to the unique sourcing process, every pair is different.

Meet the Maker:

Calla

Paris-based Calla Haynes started her collection in 2010 following stints alongside Olivier Theyskens at Rochas and Nina Ricci. After pausing production, she found herself with an enormous collection of textiles – many plucked from her archive, with others collected from esteemed houses and ateliers across France and Italy. Confronted with the amount of waste that already existed in the industry, she was adamant that her next step would be a meaningful one, so decided to repurpose them the Berber way.
