Craftsmanship at your feet

WALSH sneakers Whirl Wind NVY/BRN with red shoelaces and wine red side lines on a navy and brown base. A model made for professional athletes has been reprinted with a deep British color scheme that retains a classical atmosphere.

Since its founding in 1961, the shoes of the rare shoe brand WALSH, which has been consistently produced in the UK from design to production, are one of the attractions of a gentle fit that wraps around and stress-free comfort. All the shoes are carefully made by the hands of craftsmen, and their craftsmanship skills shine in every detail.

Professional running shoes

WHIRL WIND is one of the popular WALSH models made by Norman Walsh as a brother model of the road running shoes "LA'84" developed for the British athletes participating in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. While retaining the classical design of the time, it has been updated with high-quality materials and stylish colors.

The supple upper is made of suede leather and lightweight, durable polyester. The highly cushioned insole that gently fits your feet is also noteworthy for its high durability as a running shoe. The WALSH original rubber sole has excellent elasticity and grip, so you won't get tired even if you wear it for a long time. With a calm British color scheme that is not influenced by trends, it is finished as a high-quality sneaker for adults, so you can wear it casually not only as running shoes but also for town use.

Born from the hands of a genius shoemaker

In 1945, at the age of 14, Norman Walsh chose to become a shoemaker. He entered Foster Bros Footwear, which was run by Reebok's founder's grandfather, as an apprentice and devoted himself to making shoes. Norman's high technology, which was found by Mr. Foster, is said to have been recognized as a master craftsman, and he will be working on the shoes of the British Olympic team at the age of 16. Norman's shoes became known to the world's top athletes as athletes' records increased tremendously at the Olympics as well.

In 1961, Norman founded Norman Walsh Footwear. Since then, he has produced sneakers for track, field, cricket, football, rugby and all fields. In 1981, he provided shoes for the Everest expedition. Flexible shoes that can withstand harsh environments are recognized worldwide. Walsh sneakers are all handmade. From sewing to bottoming and packing, we do it at our own factory in Bolton, England, and craftsmen who have inherited Norman's craftsmanship to meet the needs of various customers continue to carefully make each pair.
