Being a Sanemiko is a Privilege

Sanemiko by Sanem Sevgen, as the first brand in Turkey to produce personalized shoes, robes, and accessories, brought a fresh perspective and understanding to the industry, pioneering a new trend. All products are handmade individually.

Sanemiko by Sanem Sevgen was the first brand to offer brides many innovations in the industry, such as hand-painted personalized patterns on shoes, the names of the bride and groom written, heart details on heels, and on the soles: "your turn next" lists, tiny evil eye beads, and personalized heart details.

Our shoes are exhibited at the Virtual Shoe Museum, the world's first and only virtual shoe museum based in the Netherlands, and at the Grassi Museum in Leipzig, Germany.
