Shop the LANX Collection

LANX is a Lancashire-born footwear brand with a story that begins with a single idea and six months spent travelling the world to learn how to execute it. Founder Marco 'Marv' Vaghetti launched the brand in 2018 after an immersive research journey through ten countries — visiting factories, meeting designers, and working alongside craftspeople to understand what genuinely good shoemaking looks like. What he built on his return was a brand rooted in Lancashire, making handcrafted shoes and boots with a character and quality that is immediately apparent. At Parkinson's Lifestyle, we're proud to carry a range of LANX's most compelling styles.

The LANX Story

LANX began on a rain-soaked market stall in Chorlton, where Marv sold his first pair of shoes from a borrowed van. From that start, the brand has grown to a company with a flagship store in Whalley in the Ribble Valley, a second store in Manchester's Northern Quarter, and a team dedicated to craft and quality. LANX's shoemaking draws on traditional techniques — the Craftsman collection is Goodyear welted, the Artisan collection handmade in England using rare high-grade leathers — while its design sensibility is distinctly contemporary. The brand has become the official footwear partner of Bath Rugby and several other sports organisations, and its shoes have been worn at the Rugby World Cup welcome ceremony in Paris.

The LANX Range

The LANX range at Parkinson's Lifestyle spans the brand's best styles for men and women. The Craftsman collection offers Goodyear-welted shoes and boots in classic British silhouettes — brogues, Derbies, and Chelsea boots — built to be resoled and worn indefinitely. The Artisan collection brings the brand's handmade credentials to more statement styles in premium leathers. The 365 Vibram collection is designed for those who need footwear that handles genuinely varied conditions: meetings, muddy walks, pub visits, and festivals, all in a single pair. LANX socks, made by one of England's last remaining family sock manufacturers, complete the range.

Proudly Lancashire

LANX's connection to Lancashire runs through everything it does — from the Ribble Valley countryside that inspires its collections to the local and British suppliers it works with wherever possible. This is a brand that has invested in its home county and is building something genuinely worth supporting.
