When the first collection came out, the main idea was to spice up the walls in the shops all over the World. At that time almost all sandals were black, so when You looked at the wall, there was no sandals that catched Your eyes. Simply by using unique prints and colors, Ykiki sandals was some of the first products You looked at when entering the store. Further, the shops used Ykiki sandals as decoration in shop windows.
