Norman Wakabayashi

Founder Mark Norman and Masahiro Wakabayashi first met in 1995 while they both studied footwear and accessory production at London’s Cordwainers college. They befriended and remained friends so that twenty-five years later, they created “Norman Wakabayashi”. Their unisex footwear designs are a nostalgic nod to all the things from British and Japanese street culture that continue to inspire the founders. By mixing these ingrained influences with the finest materials, best Italian factories and shoe making knowledge gained over a combined fifty years in the footwear industry – they hope to bring something original, fun and foremost wearable to the market.
