Grinders popularity hit its peak in the late 80's and early 90's when work and utility fashion became very sought-after. This was boosted by numerous pop groups sporting the Grinders look and using the products to express their individuality. The most well-known of bands include The Prodigy, Take That and East17.

Todays styles from Grinders call-back to punks and skin heads around the UK. In the 80's, these crowds would only wear a single pair of boots. Grinders embraced the challenge of catering to this lifestyle and produced products that would help resist anything and everything life threw at it, whilst remaining super comfy.

All Grinders footwear is made using Goodyear Welt Technology. This involves a band of material (often leather) being stitched and cemented to the sole unit for exceptional durability and unmatched toughness. Grinders also used reinforced stitching to truly create a long-lasting product. Many Grinders also have steel-toe caps which you could say creates one of the strongest boots on the market.

Grinders is a true unisex brand and has sustained its position in the footwear market-place as one of the best long-lasting shoe and boot suppliers. Its products are exported worldwide and has since become an integral part of recent fashion trends due to achieving a classic and iconic street and fashion status.
