Top 4 Indonesian Shoe Brands You Should Try in 2021

We always know a lot of shoe brands, like Nike, Adidas, Puma, and so on, who have gone global in the international world. But have we ever thought about Indonesia’s local brands that are no less successful than these international brands? These local brands aim to maximize their popularity when competing with foreign brands that already have an overwhelming fan base, and bear their uniqueness, separating it from global products that were first able to enter the international market beforehand.

1. BRODO

This shoe brand is well-known in Bandung as a shoe brand that offers a classy look for men. Brodo is also recognized as a shoe company that determines the items to be durable to wear. This made Brodo himself chosen during the 2018 Asian Games as the Official Footwear Merchandise.

In fact, Brodo himself has also worked directly with the FTA Centre that used the material to train Indonesian Direct (ID) members on how to inspire Indonesia Direct members to scale up the business during the pandemic. This will certainly make it easier for buyers abroad to get access to buying footwear products from Brodo.

Below, we also field documents from Brodo on the training cooperation with Indonesia Direct on 11 October 2020. The video can be accessed through this link.

2. Geoff Max

Even though their name sounds unfamiliar to our ears, Geoff Max is very popular in international markets. Founded in 2012, Geoff Max quickly captured people’s attention. By carrying out an old-school concept but still applicable to today’s trends is a distinguishing value for Geoff Max. A style that is not static and dull is the preference of shoe brands worn by different well-known musicians in Indonesia such as Pee Wee Gaskins, Seringai and others.

3. NAH Project

The diverse and varied design gives NAH Project its own nuance in manufacturing each of its newest shoe models. A style that is so suitable to young people today will increase the selling potential of NAH Project products. This was further encouraged by President Joko Widodo who was seen wearing one of the shoes developed by the NAH Project (FlexiKnit 1.0 and v2.0) as a form of appreciation for the development of a local brand.

4. Compass

Established in 1998, the Compass shoe brand arose from a family business in the city of Bandung. The fusion of classic and modern styles brought by Compass has become its own trademark as a shoe company that has long been around in Indonesia. A distinguishing characteristic of Compass is that the white-black stripe, which symbolizes Gazelle, the beast full of speed that continues to advance ahead. The styles that are available and preferred by people in Indonesia include the Gazelle Hi, Gazelle Low, and the Vintage edition which are sold exclusive on some occasions.
