The Felicia Black Leather
The Felicia brings a sharp finish to everyday dressing. In black leather, its elongated toe has contrast stitching and a silver-toned link detail. An adjustable slingback strap and slim kitten heel create a polished silhouette that's easy to wear from work to dinner. Pair it with tailored trousers, straight-leg denim or a simple dress when you want to feel dressed up without going all out. Distinctive but easy to style.
Designed by Blankens in Stockholm and handcrafted in a small, family-run workshop in Portugal, The Felicia brings together smooth leather, precise stitching and a soft leather lining. We choose European materials with longevity and comfort in mind, working with skilled makers to create shoes that keep their place in a wardrobe through changing seasons.
Blankens is a women-run footwear brand founded in Stockholm.

The Felicia fits right in: distinctive, versatile and made for more than one occasion.

Treat your shoes to make them last longer! Regular care keeps your shoes beautiful, soft, and strong. By cleaning, conditioning, and protecting the leather, you preserve its suppleness, prevent cracks, and maintain its natural shine. Think of it as skincare — for your most trusted companions. A small ritual that makes a big difference, keeping your Blankens favorites fresh and ready for every season.
We recommend using a protective spray, such as the Water Proofer, before first wear and reapply regularly to guard against moisture and stains.
Don't forget the inside. Refresh the insole by cleaning it with The Foam Cleaner.
We recommend storing them in a cool, dry place when not in use, with a shoe tree or paper stuffing to maintain shape. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and direct heat.
