ETAI DRORI
ABOUT THE FOUNDER
From a young age, Etai Drori developed a profound passion for the world of art. Immersed in galleries and embracing his talent for drawing, he soon found himself captivated by the realm of design. His fascination led him to discover a deep love for shoes, embarking on a journey of customization, reinvention, and the creation of innovative shoe designs. Through this focus, he acquired the fundamental knowledge and technical expertise necessary to work with diverse materials.
His impressive clientele includes influential figures from various industries, spanning from acclaimed musicians like Billie Eilish, Rosalia, and J Balvin, to esteemed designers and public figures such as Kid Super, Chiara Ferragni, and David LaChapelle. Drori's distinctive style has permeated mainstream culture, forging enduring connections with his clients through a collaborative design process. This close association extends not only to the brand's name and logos but also to its design aesthetic.
Over the course of the past nine years, Drori has dedicated himself to crafting bespoke art pieces, driven by a unique approach of deconstructing goods sourced from renowned designer brands. These creations were exclusively available through custom orders, and it was Drori's artistry and exceptional craftsmanship that earned him the reputation as the pioneer of luxury custom goods. His innovative work has served as inspiration for a new generation of designers, who have been inspired to follow in his footsteps. Drori's overarching objective is to inspire and support aspiring designers and artists, fostering a tightly-knit community around the brand.
