The History of Ikon Footwear

Ikon Footwear is a UK brand dedicated to crafting high-quality shoes, boots, and sandals for the fashion-conscious. Known for their stylish designs and uncompromising comfort, Ikon has been a part of the footwear industry for over 20 years.

In autumn 1997, Ikon Footwear launched its first collection, which quickly gained success. Building on this momentum, in 2002, they moved to a larger warehouse and head office to support product development, sales, and distribution. By 2005, Ikon products became available online, reaching a wider audience.


In 2006, Ikon introduced their famous Ikon Original shoe collection, featuring high-fashion retro footwear with a modern twist. Many styles in this collection were inspired by music genres both past and present. The following year, to mark their 10th anniversary, Ikon launched a new website, reflecting their growth and success within the footwear market.


Today, Ikon Footwear offers an extensive range of casual and formal shoes, boots, mod loafers, and retro designs for everyday wear. Whether heading to work or exploring the town, Ikon provides something stylish and comfortable for everyone.
