BLACK SUEDE STUDIO

BLACK SUEDE STUDIO was founded in late 2019 by Kris Avakian in Montréal’s fashion district as an advanced contemporary footwear brand. Since its launch, the brand has quickly gained recognition, capturing the attention of international tastemakers, celebrities, and fashion enthusiasts worldwide.

Having grown up immersed in fashion through his father’s fashion accessories business, Kris brings a wealth of industry expertise in product development, marketing, and brand building. BLACK SUEDE STUDIO is a reflection of his vision—a fusion of heritage, passion, and craftsmanship—designed to offer women luxury footwear and accessories that combine high-quality design with everyday wearability.
