03 Our Story

“

We started as an embellishment company. The move to footwear was natural.

Firkee Accessories — a dedicated footwear company born in 2017 with its own design studio in Lower Parel, Mumbai.

Today we design and manufacture from two locations — the studio in Lower Parel, Mumbai, and the factory in Vasai. We work with brands across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia.

We’re not the biggest manufacturer. We’re the one that gets the design right.
