History
John Fluevog co-founded the company in 1970 as Fox and Fluevog in Vancouver, British Columbia. The brand gained international prominence during the 1990s, particularly through its Angel soles, which became a staple of the era's alternative fashion scene. Fluevog shoes have been worn by prominent cultural figures in music and film. The company remains independent, maintaining a historical focus on traditional craftsmanship combined with experimental, non-traditional footwear construction techniques.
