Who We Are

Inspired by a shared love of fashion, sneakers and the surrounding culture, END. was founded in Newcastle upon Tyne back in 2005.

At the core of everything we do as a brand is our customers. We recognise that it is our team and culture that makes the difference to our customers. With over 600 employees across our HQ, offices and retail locations, this customer centred approach continues to be a key focus for all END. staff.
