Chancing upon vintage shoe moulds and long-forgotten 1950s-era machinery while visiting an old Slovakian shoe factory, Spalwart co-founders Christoffer Battin and Fredrik Johansson set out to establish their own footwear brand in 2010.

Committed to carrying on the rich heritage and history of shoemaking, with production principles founded on authentic craftsmanship and ongoing product development, Spalwart continues to manufacture their goods in original factories across Europe.
