Impression that leather is clean

Shoes are important to protect and support our feet. Even if you don't usually pay attention to it, you can walk or run every day without stress if you wear well-fitting shoes. WALSH, born from the hands of a true shoemaker, is a brand that represents such stress-free sneakers. It is a sneaker that shows high manufacturing technology and passion for shoe making.

The fit you feel every time you walk

The "Tornado" series is an improved version of the running model that Mr. Walsh, the founder of the brand, was particularly fond of. It is a sneaker with a very simple and chic finish, and you can see the background made for running from the design that follows the shape of the foot, the resistance to slipping, and above all, the lightness. However, even though it is modeled after running shoes, it is characterized by its beautiful coloring and stylish shape, making it easy to use as a sneaker for everyday use. It is a particularly lightweight model among WALSH. We recommend this pair for first time users. Tornado is a classic style that you can easily wear with any outfit.

It is made with a focus on weight reduction, so you can feel the lightness of the upper when you put your feet in. Breathable nylon fabric prevents moisture from accumulating, and it has a comfortable fit that fits your feet perfectly. The sole has just the right amount of thickness, and it responds well to sudden stops like a car tire. The Tornado 17 WALSH sneakers, which are sporty and reduce the burden on your feet, are comfortable to wear once you put them on.

This WALSH sneaker Tornado17 Lea Off white has a clean look with natural white leather and a silver logo on the heel. The all-leather specification uses leather for the upper, and it is a pair of shoes with an exquisite balance of casualness and beauty that sets it apart from other Tornado 17 series. Versatile sneakers that are easy to match with feminine outfits such as dresses and skirts, and can be used instead of leather shoes.

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.
