What is Maypol?
Maypol is a women's footwear label from Spain, founded by Manuel Polo over thirty years ago. Every pair is handcrafted in Caravaca de la Cruz, in the Murcia region, where the brand's artisans combine traditional leatherworking with current trends.
Products and positioning
Maypol positions its shoes as versatile pieces for sophisticated women. The range includes leather boots and booties, sandals and espadrille styles. A typical example is its western-inspired bootie, made with a leather upper, insole and sole, a stacked leather heel and a side zip, designed to add personality to denim or dresses. The emphasis on full leather construction and Spanish manufacture places the brand in the accessible quality segment rather than fast fashion.
