Doraz

Doraz refers to a type of footwear, specifically a sandal, originating from North Africa, particularly Morocco. These sandals are traditionally made from leather, often cowhide or camel hide, and are characterized by their simple construction. The design typically involves a sole and a few straps that secure the foot.

Historically, doraz were practical and durable footwear suited for the climate and terrain of their region of origin. They were often handmade by local artisans, with variations in design and decoration depending on the specific community or tribe. The craftsmanship involved in creating doraz can be quite intricate, with some pairs featuring decorative stitching, tooling, or embellishments.

While the term "doraz" is most commonly associated with these traditional North African sandals, similar styles of simple leather sandals can be found in various cultures around the world. In modern times, doraz are sometimes worn as casual footwear or as part of traditional attire for cultural events. They are appreciated for their authenticity, comfort, and the handcrafted quality they represent.
