Whom You Know Suggests Your Feet Dive Into Single Fish by All Black Footwear This Summer! Be on Top of Style With Real Fish Skin.



Did you know your feet can be virtually swimming this summer even when you're walking down a hot sidewalk: that is, when you're wearing Single Fish by All Black Footwear!  The style will leave you feeling like you're on top of fashion with the exquisite detailing in a brilliant royal blue authentic fish skin that can be dressed up or down successfully, and is terrifically versatile in a classic style.  We love the All Black commitment to authenticity in true fish skin and Earthy Peachy loves the recycling aspect to these shoes.

Single Fish is a ballet flat made of actual Tilapia fish skin, lined in real pig skin and available in a range of fashion colors each season.The construction is referred to as “soft sole" that allows for flexibility when walking and added comfort.  These are light and comfortable and you'll feel like you're walking on clouds.

The Single Fish ballet flat is made of real tilapia fish skin, harvested from the fisheries in China and Taiwan after the fish meat is removed.  T
his is a form of recycling that helps the environment, reduces waste and provides a fashion alternative to the traditional snake skin used in fashion shoes.  
It takes between 5 and 7 skins to make a shoe because they match the fish scales in a manner that allows the scales to be uniform and the texture to be consistent.
The fish skin is backed with pig skin to provide durability and then dyed with vegetable dyes to create fashion colors that match the seasonal pallets.

When ALL BLACK was introduced to the North American market in 2005, Fish Skin was their signature material that separated ALL BLACK from their competition. Over the 12 years since their debut into North America, other brands have attempted success with fish skin, but no other brand has achieved the identity associated with ALL BLACK as the brand that makes the best quality fish skin styles.

ALL BLACK Mission Statement

Offer fashionable women of all ages affordable, innovative designs reflecting the best of the past and the cutting edge of the future while putting a smile on their face and on their feet!

ALL BLACK now enjoys 11 years of business growth, successful customer relationships, and innovative design in North America.

ALL BLACK is a fashion forward contemporary shoe brand that combines innovative materials with retro inspired designs while still offering the important element of comfort that women of all ages desire.

ALL BLACK is a well established brand in Taiwan where it is designed and manufactured; the brand is made by ACL Footwear Company, which has been in the footwear business for two generations. We introduced ALL BLACK to the North American market place in June of 2005. Immediately Anthropologie selected ALL BLACK as a key vendor and today 11 years later we still value our special relationship with Anthropologie.

ALL BLACK has evolved to a position of a trend setter in the contemporary design segment of the women’s shoe market. Our brand has established a look that is now well known for being just different enough to be unique, but not too far over the edge to be risky.

We have introduced signature materials such as tilapia fish skin that was copied and used by a range of high end designers as well as our mid level competitors. Our recycled newspaper collection has received global recognition as both innovative and fashionable. 

We improved our comfort focus by using “Soft Sole” construction, which provided a flexible sole, and our heels are considered “just the right height” to be both fashionable and “walk- able.”

In recent years, our fashion sneaker collection has earned very high marks and recognition for its fast sell through and innovative styles.

ALL BLACK has also earned the reputation as a dependable, high quality brand, which looks more expensive then our prices represent. We deliver on time and we stand behind the quality of our brand.
