Widgets & Ankle Boots

The name "Widgets" comes from the area in Tartu, Estonia where the shoe factory is located. This area is called The Widget Factory.

During the Soviet era, this area was used to make refrigeration equipment and secret submarine parts. It was also used to mislead the public by producing non-working umbrellas and zippers.

Today, the area brings together creative business owners, artists, designers, and cafes. Of course, the shoe factory is still there as well.
