British women’s shoe brand Rupert Sanderson has three stores in Hong Kong, including one within Harbour City’s Ocean Centre (3-27 Canton Road). (UPDATE 2022: THE SHOPS HAVE CLOSED)
Founded by Rupert Sanderson in 2001 in London, UK, after the designer spent years learning the craft in Italy, the brand is today one of the respected women’s shoe labels of the world.
Rupert Sanderson’s design philosophy is ‘less is more’, which translates into avoiding excessive augmentation and overdressing the foot.
Typical designs by the company emphasize perfecting the lines, volumes, and materials in order to flatter and lengthen the leg, resulting in sensual curves and silhouettes of the lasts and heels.
Each pair of Rupert Sanderson shoes is hand-crafted in Bologna, Italy, utilizing the best traditional Italian craftsmanship with distinctive, avant-garde designs and best available materials.
The entire process of designing and making a shoe includes more than 120 individual steps, requiring an intricate understanding of the footwear craft.
Out of this complicated manufacturing process comes such signature features as hand-gilded 24K gold leaf heels and pebble buckles.
