The Story of the Corkys Brand
Founded in 2003 by Sid Richmond, Corkys Footwear emerged from a dinner conversation that sparked a vision. What began as a simple idea to sell EVA flip-flops quickly evolved into a distinguished brand known for its stylish spring and summer footwear.
As Corkys grew, so did its collection. Over the years, we expanded our offerings to include wedges, fashion sandals, rain boots, and loafers. By 2009, we made a strategic pivot to provide year-round styles, adding boots and booties to our lineup. This expansion underscored our commitment to delivering fashionable, comfortable footwear for every season.
Today, Corkys is celebrated for seamlessly blending comfort with style, making it a staple in the footwear market. Our journey from a boutique brand to a trendsetter is driven by our dedication to original designs and our guiding motto: “Comfort doesn’t have to be ugly.” This principle reflects our mission to offer footwear that combines aesthetic appeal with exceptional comfort, keeping us at the forefront of fashion trends and sometimes even setting them.
