Soludos is a footwear company founded in 2010 by British native Nick Brown. The brand's espadrilles are inspired by traditional Spanish shoes, which Brown found he was missing when he came to New York City from the Spanish coast. He initially sold shoes online from his apartment and worked with Laura Hoffmann, Opening Ceremony and Jason Polan to promote the brand. These espadrilles are bought by retailers including Ron Herman, Steven Alan, Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's.
They are also sold in pop-up stores during the summer months. Soludos shoes have been featured in Vogue and Harper's Bazaar magazines and have been worn by celebrities including Kate Bosworth, Anne Hathaway, Jennifer Garner and Michelle Monaghan. In 2018, Soludos now sells a wide range of women's espadrilles, sneakers, loafers, boots, mules and sandals, as well as men's smoking sneakers.
