CREATING
SUSTAINABLE
LUXURY FOOTWEAR
Chris and I have always been into luxury sneakers, so when we came to the U.S. from Germany, we were frustrated to find that they were few and far between.
That’s why we founded Koio—a luxury footwear brand built on the principles that are most important to us: versatile design, comfort, sustainability, and fine craftsmanship. We believe that true luxury is only achieved when all four of these principles are present.
Being a new label, we have the freedom to innovate radically on these four principles, especially sustainability. Right now, we’re on our way to becoming the first regenerative luxury footwear brand by 2025.
Designed in New York and handcrafted in Italy, Koios are made to be loved and worn for years.
