About Us

Since 2001, Matisse has approached women's footwear as an extension of personal style. Based in Los Angeles, the brand draws from nature, art and culture to create shoes that feel distinctive without losing their everyday practicality. Its collections span relaxed coastal footwear, contemporary city styles and statement pieces, giving Matisse a versatile place in the modern wardrobe.

Boots are a major part of the Matisse identity. The current assortment includes ankle boots, tall boots, knee-high silhouettes, western boots and heeled boots, with designs ranging from streamlined everyday pairs to more expressive seasonal styles. Current examples include the Caty ankle boot, Franklin knee-high boot and several other fashion-focused silhouettes.

For warmer seasons, Matisse offers an equally varied selection of sandals, mules, clogs and flats. Platform sandals, thong sandals, heeled sandals, ballet flats and loafers provide options for casual outfits, vacation dressing and more polished looks. The collection also includes sneakers and other easygoing footwear.

Sustainability-minded shoppers can explore selected vegan designs across the Matisse family of brands. Coconuts by Matisse incorporates many vegan options, while the current website also highlights 100% vegan Lenore styles. Matisse says it works with family-owned factory partners and uses recycled-paper packaging and vegan glue as part of its efforts to reduce environmental impact.
