Rupert Sanderson

Rupert started his career as a shoemaker relatively late at the age of 33. After attending the world-renowned Cordwainers College in East London, Rupert embarked on a journey of discovery across Italy. Winning a scholarship to design for a season with Sergio Rossi, he then took up a permanent position with the legendary Bolognese shoe brand Bruno Magli (now sadly and shamefully no more).

In 2001, he returned to London to launch his own eponymous label. Born out of the relationships and craftsmanship he had been exposed to in Italy and a divine sense of beauty and style.
