Suicoke sandals
Secretive / aesthetic / functional
Origin: Tokyo, Japan
We didn’t start with sandals, we started with a Matrioska doll
A world-famous Japanese cult brand that remains a mystery. Suicoke was established in 2006 by multiple anonymous creative members based in Japan, shifting the focus towards their products rather than their designers or founders. The Japanese brand did not deal with shoes, or in particular sandals, from the beginning but was rather known for smaller editions of accessories and dolls which were decorated by hand.
“We like to keep the origin and the etymology of our brand name shred in mystery”
The name Suicoke is a simple composition of a word without any crucial significance, the founders liked the sound of the word and therefore chose Suicoke as their brand´s name. By working together with other brands, the brand quickly became a driving force for open minded footwear consumers, who were shown a good alternative to classic shoes or running sneakers by Suicoke.
