Our Brand
Founded in Kuwait, we design contemporary, handmade and high-quality women’s footwear and accessories. We are committed to innovation design and to working with skilled craftsmen to bring to life, as we like to call it, the perfect THUNA a.k.a pair. Our footwear is designed to be with each and every woman on her journey and to remind her to fully embrace the path she’s chosen.
We believe that all women are living an inspirational journey unique to them; we don’t believe in a “right path”, but rather that we are all meant to pave our own however way we want. Most of all, we believe that every step of that path counts and should be celebrated.
The word THUNA is derived from the word “pair” in Arabic, which not only refers to a pair of shoes, but also represents the two women behind it all.
Meet the founders
With 10 years of friendship and thriving corporate careers, Altaf and Sharifa had been there for each other every step of the way. It was only natural for the duo to join forces when they found themselves ready to start something of their own.
Both felt inspired to challenge the status quo and venture into the footwear business, one typically dominated by men, and founded THUNA. Each piece of the brand harmoniously embodies both of their personal styles and is designed with comfort and practicality in mind.
The founders believe that every woman needs a good pair of shoes to get her through the day and remind her to celebrate every step of her journey. And although the journey for THUNA started with footwear, the duo sees it evolving as a lifestyle brand that brings together like-minded women.
