I was pregnant with my first child, and had a pipe-dream to create the very best footwear for women, when we came through our suppliers doors and asked (begged) Henry and Julia to make for us. Over a decade on, I’m so glad and appreciative they took a punt on FRANKIE4.

Our suppliers
& their workers

All FRANKIE4 shoes are made in Vietnam and China. SMETA audits are performed annually by the international body, SEDEX.

SMETA audits are a globally recognised way to assess responsible supply chain activites. These reports ensure our suppliers are meeting (and exceeding) the standards for workers in Vietnam and China.

Workers are paid above considered living wage and our supplier complies with local labour laws on wages, salary and social benefits, working hours, conditions, and insurances. They also provide emergency response training and environmental protection.
