Founded in 1933 in a small Saint-Tropez workshop by Armenian refugees Jacques and Elise Keklikian, K. Jacques is a family-owned brand celebrated for its timeless leather sandals. The duo established a legacy of quality and durability, creating the iconic “Tropezienne” style that became synonymous with the effortless elegance of the French Riviera. Each pair of sandals is handcrafted in the brand's own French workshop, a process involving 46 distinct steps and the work of skilled artisans. This commitment to traditional craftsmanship earned the house the prestigious French "Living Heritage Company" (EPV) label, a mark of excellence in savoir-faire.
