The No.05 ballerina is a closed-toe style for larger shoe sizes that stands out with its minimalist design and precise lines. Designed for women who value a clean, understated silhouette even in sizes 42 through 46.
Minimalism as Design
In taupe and black, the ballerina features a particularly understated color palette.
The subtle balance of material and form ensures that the shoe makes a statement without drawing undue attention to itself.
The result is a style that can be paired with a variety of outfits while maintaining a calm elegance.
Fit for Larger Shoe Sizes
The No.05 ballerinas are available in sizes 42, 43, 44, 45, and 46 and were developed specifically for larger shoe sizes.
Rather than simply scaling up existing models, the design is based on a unique last.
This results in a balanced fit with a secure hold and comfortable stability.
Selected styles are also produced in limited quantities in sizes 38–41.
Material and Craftsmanship
Made in Portugal from high-quality leather, these ballerinas combine meticulous craftsmanship with long-lasting quality.
The material conforms to the foot while maintaining the shoe’s clean lines. Since it is a natural material, slight variations in color may occur.

Wearing instructions

Leather has the wonderful ability to gradually adapt to your foot over time.
These shoes thrive on wear and love to be broken in. A pair of full leather shoes requires your time & dedication, warmth & moisture.
This means: Wear your Kathis for one day and then let them rest for two days.
In general, to ensure an excellent climate for your feet and your shoes, you should alternate the shoes you wear every day so that the moisture created in the shoe can escape from the shoe during the rest days
