What is Red By Wolves?

Red By Wolves is a London based footwear brand initially started in 2007 based around one unisex boot, the pointed, buckled Yvan boot, (which has since become a classic and known the world over as representing Red By Wolves. This later evolved into separate womens and mens collections (Classic Collection).

For Spring/Summer 2011 Red By Wolves will also be launching a unisex conceptual scarves collection.

In the beginning, the shoes were all custom made to order in London, but as production grew, we had to move to bigger premises.

Today, Red By Wolves shoes are still handmade in a 3rd generation family run beautiful factory in sunny Portugal.



Why the name Red By Wolves?

It is a combination of the phrase raised by wolves and the colour red.

Raised by wolves as a style reference to the wild and wonderful creations we make, the colour red, because in shoemaking history the colour red has a long tradition for special, extraordinary and handcrafted.



Who is the designer behind the brand?

German born Lena Lipp is the designer behind the brand.

Lena graduated from the renowned Istituto Marangoni and studied at the London shoe-making school Cordwainers as well as studying under various bespoke shoe makers and working in the shoe design departments of Jonathan Kelsey and Alexander McQueen.
