Workshops & productions

At IKO:NOTT, each sneaker is the result of artisanal expertise, responsible innovation, and controlled production.
Designed and developed in France, manufactured in Portugal. Our sneakers combine performance, durability, and respect for resources at every stage.

Why did we decide to manufacture in Portugal?

Our sneakers are made in Portugal, where craftsmanship meets family passion.
Our partner workshop in Porto is a family-run business, with expertise passed down from generation to generation. Every detail is treated with precision, care, and passion.
All our raw materials are also sourced in Portugal and certified by strict labels:

Locally manufactured, reduced carbon footprint, total transparency.

100% Portuguese raw materials, sourced from recycling and certified.

80% reduction in CO2 emissions. Thanks to optimized production.

Consolidated shipping to minimize empty runs and reduce the logistical impact.

The workshop in Fontainebleau

It is in the heart of the Fontainebleau forest, in our design studio, that IKO:NOTT sneakers come to life.

We design each model there, in a space dedicated to design, prototyping, and research.
This is where we test, improve, and refine every detail to combine innovation, technical expertise, and sustainability.

The Porto workshop

In the heart of Portugal, in the Porto region, our family-run workshops have been crafting shoes for nearly 55 years.

Every pair of IKO:NOTT shoes is hand-assembled with respect for both the artisans and the planet.

REACH Compliance: Our Portuguese workshops comply with the European REACH regulation, which strictly governs the use of chemicals in manufacturing. This guarantees that our sneakers are free of hazardous substances such as phthalates, heavy metals, allergenic dyes, and endocrine disruptors.

Maintaining control over our products

By manufacturing in the European Union rather than in Asia, IKO:NOTT is able to reduce its carbon footprint, guarantee ethical and transparent working conditions, and ensure direct quality control at every stage of production.

Sneakers designed to last, produced with care and respect.

Raw materials processed in Europe

All materials are sourced entirely in Portugal to minimize the impact of transportation. We collaborate with committed suppliers, selected for their expertise and respect for the environment. Complete traceability, from the thread to the finished product.

IKO:NOTT proves that it is possible to combine innovation, performance, and responsibility.
