Arkk Copenhagen

There's a Scandinavian history to the name ARKK. Scandinavian sailors always lead the way to new places and opportunities, whatever the situation is. Embroidered in the shape of a ship bow, the letter 'A' on these shoes symbolises future paths and innovation, guiding each owner on their personal journey.

On a summer night, ARKK Copenhagen was founded with the goal of creating a sneaker that was comfortable, functional, and embodied the Scandinavian tradition of simplicity. A collaboration between designers Thomas Refdahl and Kasper Hj Rasmussen blossomed in 2014. Being innovative and making the best modern sneaker in the world is what ARKK Copenhagen is all about.

Construction of the Arkk Sneakers

In addition to having a well-thought-out silhouette and minimalist details, Arkk sneakers are perfectly suited to modern living.

They use only the finest materials to craft their sneakers, and each sneaker is designed for maximum comfort.

As Arkk Copenhagen is committed to sustainability, its shoes are made of recycled and eco-friendly materials, and it adheres to a rigorous animal welfare policy.

Did you know?

In order to name the shoe models, ARKK Copenhagen uses a unique method. Each sneaker is assigned a three-letter code instead of a traditional name.

Using the initials of a city that inspired the design or concept of the shoe model, the brand draws inspiration from numerous cities around the world renowned for their architecture, culture, and fashion.

In addition to highlighting their design's global influence, this naming convention also adds a unique and recognisable element to ARKK Copenhagen's brand identity, connecting the sneakers with specific cities and evoking a sense of urban style and inspiration.
