The Solatio Shoe Company is a small UK business located in Northamptonshire, the heart of UK shoemaking, and where the original Solatio shoes were manufactured in the seventies.

Bringing on back the good times

As owner, my business has been involved in the design and sales of mens footwear for many years. I was one of the many who owned and loved a pair of the original Solatios way back in the seventies and was keen to bring back the Solatio brand with as much authenticity as possible. In 2011 we embarked on the project to do just that. My existing links with a shoemaker in Verona Italy made this possible. We were able to successfully reproduce some great Solatio styles as they were originally. Demand continues to grow in the UK and international as the brand grows.

Much of the customer feedback we receive suggests that the shoes are quite a nostalgic purchase for many. Once worn never forgotten. It’s good to be selling a product which can evoke feelings beyond the satisfaction of buying for purely practical reasons. Many of us owned these shoes during our teenage years when fashion identity was so important. Those great days of youth remain so strong in our memories and for many a pair of Solatio shoes will transport you back to those good times.

We endeavour to put customer satisfaction at the forefront of what we do and are appreciative of the many compliments we receive from customers. We too have great affection for these shoes and are determined to keep the brand strong and authentic.We hope you enjoy your Solatio shoes back in your life as much as we do.

Enjoy your Solatios
