Why quality shoes are worth the investment

Aug 13, 2024

When we launched Mikko Men’s last year, we set out to create a high-quality footwear offering for a market we felt was overlooked.

Working closely with trusted brands from across Europe and the US, we offer a comprehensive range of premium men’s shoes with three non-negotiables: craftsmanship, comfort and sophisticated innovation.

1. AUTHENTIC CRAFTSMANSHIP

When you invest in quality, one of the many pay-offs you receive in return is peace of mind of authenticity.

We partner with artisan brands that we consider to be the best in the world. Brands that live by the belief that when you make an investment in your shoes, you’ll receive an enduring, quality experience with unreserved comfort in return.

Every shoe brand we stock is a family-owned business (just like us), who have the generationally-trained craft down to a fine art.

This unparalleled knowledge of construction ensures years of wear, maintained with just the basics of shoe care.

2. COMFORT BY DESIGN

While each of our brands are expert at combining technology with craftsmanship, of equal importance is the design.

High quality footwear is always made of superior materials, with comfort front of mind. Premium leather is supple, soft and offers durability against the elements.

When buying quality shoes, ligament or heel pain is often reduced, and for those that need orthotics, we have options that cater to specific needs, giving you a personalised fit and wear that you can trust.

The in store team at Mikko are professionally trained in fitting and styling, to make sure you get a pair of shoes that offer comfortable support all day.

3. SOPHISTICATED INNOVATION

At Mikko Men’s, we know that when contemporary innovation meets heritage construction, a truly fine footwear result is achieved.

The brands we choose offer the latest in technology for premium foot support. Some of this technology has taken decades of development and refinement.

Investments in sole technology alone have transformed comfort. Many of our brands use compounds that result in a lightweight, incredibly cushioned and adaptable fit – ideal for the wider Kiwi foot.

Unique inner comfort technologies applied across many of our brands provides ultimate support. Some of these technologies include; 360-degree stitching which results in more flexibility and durability. Styles with patented Gore-Tex membrane ensures waterproofing. Dual-fit and removable in-soles provide a personalised fit for those that need it. 

Innovation is just one of the many reasons we stand by investing in quality brands, as it’s you, our customers, who benefit from this long-term commitment to quality.

Time after time, our customers tell us that when they started better caring for their feet by buying quality footwear, they have never looked back.

We look forward to seeing you online and in-store soon to discover the Mikko difference.
