Peru is our home and our constant source of inspiration. As we have the opportunity to grow, we want to give back to our community.
A percentage of our sales go to a non-profit organization called Ninos del Arco Iris that helps families in need in the Sacred Valley (River Urubamba) in Cusco. The main goal of this organization is to generate human development in the community, giving them the chance of having an honorable life by their own means. The biggest effort of this organization is educating the kids and young adults, as well as giving them basic health services.

Craftsmanship is at the heart of each pair of Huma Blanco shoes.
Huma Blanco is a footwear brand, designed and handmade in Lima, Peru. The line was born of an appreciation for the simple luxury of Peruvian hides and textiles, along with a goal to sustain long-term jobs for shoemakers in its designer's home country.
The raw beauty of these Peruvian materials - such as suede, alpaca and calf hair - inspires the designer, Adriana Crocco. Crocco works with them using natural dyes, or leaving them in their pure form. The line fuses classic silhouettes with interesting construction and unexpected textures.
The Designer
Huma Blanco is created by Adriana Crocco, a third-generation shoemaker and designer based in Lima. Her Peruvian and Italian shoemaking heritages have led Adriana to an appreciation for quality of materials and construction.
