Frank Wright

The Frank Wright brand was born in 1885, Mr Wright started from a small workshop in Kettering, Northamptonshire making peg sole military boots. He moved to designing the boots for the cavalry regiments based in London at the Chelsea barracks. The men's footwear brand relocated to Kettering and continued to innovate, becoming a major part of the ‘Carnaby Street’ scene in London in the 1960s. During the late ‘70s and ‘80s Frank Wright cemented its place amongst the youth culture of the day and became a wardrobe staple on the terrace scene. Today Frank Wright draws on influences from the rich heritage of the brand to create a collection of trend led footwear, classic designs with modern styling.
