Nina's sexy, glamorous shoes have been designed in New York since 1953. Brothers and co-founders Mike and Stanley Silverstein, Cuban emigrants, set up shop in a small loft on Prince Street, naming the company after Stanley's first-born daughter. It all started with a fashion clog Ð a sexy platform sandal with a wood stiletto-like heel that was a reinterpretation of the clogs their father had made in Cuba. By the end of the 1950s, Nina's fashion clogs were on the feet of stylish women everywhere.
