Originally from Northampton, England, T.U.K. founder Ian White moved to the sandy shores of San Diego, California in 1990 and a year later the brand was born. Ian White, whose family had been manufacturing English footwear since the 1890s, brought with him the distinctly British sensibilities of family’s business and found tremendous inspiration in the blossoming So-Cal punk rock scene. The result: a one-of-a-kind brand of footwear that channels punk roots across continents.
