I saw these items while in Istanbul and really liked them. They look like they might be traditional or culturally inspired Turkish but I’m not sure what they’re called or where they come from.
Does anyone know what these are called and if they have any cultural or historical background? I’d also love to find a place online where I could buy.

Shoes are cheap rip off of Southeastern Yemeni. Honestly, instead of buying them, just contact a local Yemeni craftsmaster in Gaziantep and have them ship it to you. It’ll probably be a lot cheaper and authentic.
