Luxury Handcrafted Shoes & Accessories | Nicola Sexton
At Nicola Sexton, we take immense pride in our meticulous craftsmanship and design, which begin at our headquarters in Suffolk. Nicola personally selects premium Italian leathers and materials, ensuring every product exudes style and quality. Our footwear is crafted in Fucecchio, Italy, by a three-generation family-run factory renowned for its mastery of Italian shoemaking. We combine timeless silhouettes with luxurious materials, offering footwear that transitions seamlessly from day to night. Our accessories, including handbags and belts, are produced alongside our shoes to ensure perfect colour and quality consistency. The collection also features Italian-made knitwear, hand-picked to complement our footwear. Every stage of our manufacturing process, from material selection to packaging, is executed with precision and care. We use only the finest raw materials, including genuine leather linings and Swarovski crystals, to deliver products that embody Italian luxury.Our commitment to comfort is evident in every pair, featuring padded footbeds for all-day wear. Founded in 2010, we began as a boutique introducing high-end European brands before launching our own collection to meet customer demand for wearable, stylish shoes. After closing our physical store in 2020, we expanded through events and online sales, building a loyal customer base. Today, we offer exclusive access to our collection through our website and curated UK events, balancing growth with exceptional customer service. Our dedication to sustainability ensures ethical sourcing, eco-friendly packaging, and partnerships with factories that uphold fair working conditions. We believe in creating timeless pieces that stand the test of time, avoiding fast fashion in favour of enduring style and quality.

Took my partner to see some Chelsea boots a few weeks ago! Thought Id pop back and get them for a nice Xmas stocking filler all Beit they were 155! Only to find Nicola only had a size 4 and too small left! Wounded! Not quite. She called a another shop that stock her boots and bingo. They have them. Problem! They were more than her price! No problem, she negotiated for me and get them delivered within 48 hrs for only 2.95
