Step Into WoodchuckSato
The Tabi design has deep roots. Originally worn in Japan for balance, agility, and connection to the ground. At WoodchuckSato, we bring the tabi into every corner of your wardrobe: loafers, boots, flats, and heels, each pair handmade with care down to the smallest detail. The unique split-toe design brings style and comfort to every step - distinct, deliberate, and made to be worn daily.
Consideration behind every pair of Tabis
Nothing at WoodchuckSato is rushed. Every pair takes shape slowly in our small workshop, no assembly lines, no shortcuts. Each material is chosen with intention, from the upper, down to our hybrid leather-and-rubber soles, with every pair inspected by hand for a level of detail no machine can match.That patience is what gives a handmade shoe its soul. This is WoodchuckSato - made deliberately, built to be worn, one pair at a time. Explore more in our story.
The Story Behind Our Tabis
From a single piece of leather to a lovely pair of Tabis
Every pair begins with quality leather and a pair of skilled hands. Our artisans cut, stitch, and shape each shoe individually. No assembly lines, no shortcuts, just honest craftsmanship, from the first cut to the moment your pair is carefully packed and on its way to you.

Let customers speak for us
These are a beautifully made shoe. I went off of the measurements in the size guide and I think they will be a great fit. They were a little snug when I first put them on, but I can tell they are going to loosen up and mold well to my feet (as they are leather! My only wish is that the sole was a bit thicker, but that is specific to my feet and my need for a bit more cushion and support.
They so chic look very luxurious. I can't wait to wear them around all Fall.
I just got them today, wore them immediately, and felt amazing!
I have wore other tabi shoes in the past, and for the price, these ones are great, good quality, the smell feels new, smooth and soft leather.
Very happy overall, I wear a 36,5 and ordered a size 36 and they fit perfectly not too tight or weird fit. Overall a good purchase!
Exquisite shoe, still more beautiful in person than in the photos!
True to size: I usually wear a 36, occasionally a 37; the efficient customer service team helped me pinpoint the correct size, and they were absolutely right.
The shoe arrived impeccably packaged, with the delightful surprise of complimentary tabi socks included!
I will certainly purchase again!❤️
Amazing quality, so comfortable. Love them.
Agréablement surprise ! Qualité au rendez-vous et les bottes sont identiques à la photo, je recommande !! ☺️
100 stars! Simply outstanding! The leather is soft and gorgeous. I love the zipper so much more than the hooks on the OG (which always come unhooked). The 3cm heel gives the elegance of a heel with the practicality of being able to walk 15,000 steps a day throughout London for a week. As for sizing, I am an exact size 7US, and the size 37 fit like a dream. Now that I know the sizing, I will be quickly filling my closet with more of these beautiful tabis.
exactly as expected, very comfy. love them.
Me encantaron, son súper cómoda para poder caminar con ellas y no te molestan nada. Le dan un estilo único al look que te pongas, las recomendaría al 100.
Beautiful shoes and so well made. Customer service were amazing in helping me select the correct size. Very happy with my purchase.
Beautiful shoes and well made.
Beautiful shoes!! The leather is such nice quality and the design looks exactly the same in person. I really wish they offered half sizes though. I normally wear a US 7.5-8 and am in between 38 and 39. I ordered the 38 and they are a pretty tight but I’m hoping the leather stretches. But I’d be worried the 39 would be too big and my heel would slip.
Beautifully made shoes and really comfy! Very soft leather. I ordered my usual size and they are snug but will stretch enough through wear.
The sling backs are absolutely comfortable and beautiful this is my second pair and im glad i have both. Very well made pair of shoes.
So much more comfortable than my Margielas!
Super cute, well made, and very comfortable. My only regret is not getting two pairs, one in each of the sizes that I was contemplating and returning the one that didn’t fit. I got the worry free shipping but was worried that one size too small would have been two tight and I would have had to exchange them again. If you’re not sure about sizing, get the worry free shipping and get two sizes!
