Our Founder’s Journey
In 2002, James Walker was at a crossroads in life, having faced personal setbacks.

The low point of life.

On a sunny morning in 2005, James Walker found himself in a small workshop with a piece of leather in his hands. Just a few years prior, his life had fallen apart: he lost his job, his marriage ended in divorce, and he found himself alone and uncertain of the future. But rather than succumb to despair, James made a life-changing decision — to craft something that would symbolize his resilience and rebirth.

The Beginning: The First Pair of Boots

James had always been passionate about craftsmanship, especially leatherwork. In those dark days, he found solace in this passion and began handcrafting his very first pair of boots. These weren’t just any boots; they were a symbol of hope, transformation, and determination. With each stitch, James poured his heart and soul into the creation, believing that this one pair of boots could change his life.

And it did. He wore those boots with a renewed sense of purpose, and soon, things started to turn around. Within a few short years, he rebuilt his life—found new love, rekindled his sense of adventure, and launched a brand that would share his story with the world. Thus, Luckboots was born, a brand that symbolized the idea that fortune favors the bold, especially those willing to walk the hard paths.

From Workshop to Brand

The first pair of boots James made wasn’t just about footwear. It represented the start of a personal journey. As more people noticed the rugged quality and symbolic meaning of his boots, they began asking for their own pairs. Luckboots officially launched on September 1, 2005, and quickly garnered a following among those who sought both style and substance in their footwear.

Each pair of Luckboots is not only durable and stylish but carries with it the spirit of perseverance and good fortune. The name "Luckboots" wasn’t just chosen at random. It reflects James’ belief that every step we take can lead to new opportunities, provided we have the courage to walk forward, even in difficult times.
