BucketFeet was founded in 2011 in Chicago, Illinois, by current owners Raaja Nemani and Aaron Firestein. The pair met in Argentina and Firestein gave Nemani a pair of shoes he had drawn on himself as a farewell gift. The shoes received so many inquires and compliments, that Nemani contacted Firestein in the US and the pair started their own shoe business.
The company operates a shoe design, eCommerce site and sells their shoes in selected stores, as well as their own brick and mortar store in Chicago and NewYork. Customers can design their own shoes, or choose from designs offered by others. The company states it has more than 12,000 designs from people in more than 100 countries.
BucketFeet has plans for expansion into international markets, with 3 stores planned for Asia, London, Hong Kong, and Amsterdam, by the end of 2017. Pop up stores in other cities are also very likely.
