Today we welcome Archie Hewlett, CEO and founder of the London footwear label, Duke + Dexter. Launched in 2014, aged just 19, Duke + Dexter has since become the brand of choice for the great and good of global showbusiness – including Ryan Reynolds, Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, Snoop Dogg and David Beckham – after Eddie Redmayne sported his own pair when collecting his Academy Award for Best Actor in 2015. Designed in London and handmade in Sheffield, this is a story of Great British design, innovation and entrepreneurship. And with an ethical ethos powered by sustainability, it is one that is only set to grow in a more purpose-driven global economy.
