In Israel Ben Yishai Shoes are best known for their comfort and quality. They are also known for their unique style, though it sometimes borders on odd. Also, Ben Yishai have a bigger size range than most shoe manufactures, especially for large size shoes. They are not known for being cheap.
Since I have started this blog, I have gotten many e-mails asking where one can buy Ben-Yishai shoes in Israel and outside of it. The fact is that Ben Yishai shoes are sought after but not that easy to find. Also, there does not seem to be an English sight for Ben Yishai shoes.
Ben Yishai shoes can usually be found in Gazith shoe shops and Be-Unique shops, but most are spread around, or hiding as it seems, in quality shoe shops all over Israel.

Limor Galili is an Israeli designer who designs and sells bags and shoes from her shop in Ramat Hasharon.
I first noticed Limor Galili because of a bag of hers I saw a friend carrying. The said bad was from Limor Galili’s pyramid collection like in the picture below (you can see more of them on the site). I also love the Plonter bag collection with the knotted strap that goes from one side to the other (also in the picture and in the site).

Limor Galili’s shoes are certainly distinct with the big rounded toe.
