Nicholas Deakins
Craig Nicholas Tate, whilst studying for a BA Honours in Fashion and Textile in London established Nicholas Deakins in 1991. An initial collection of only four styles was then made in England by W. J Brookes to exploit a niche in the market, and the brand quickly became a favourite of the clubs and terraces, earning a loyal and dedicated fashion savvy following.
Services
Launched in 1991, the Nicholas Deakins story is personal and inspirational.

This is a brand that made an immediate and lasting impact with an initial collection of stylish mens footwear for savvy ravers who couldn't gain access to the best clubs of the time wearing trainers Nicholas Deakins is now widely recognised as one of the UK's premium lifestyle fashion brands for mens designer and casual shoes Established over 29 years ago the brand has continued to maintain its core values and successfully combine innovative, practical designs with quality manufacture to produce collections of casual and designer footwear for the discerning follower of men's fashion.
From the ND stable we present a range of premium sneakers inspired by the past, for the future. The Mako is a modern day take on a classic sneaker drawing on inspiration from deep within the 80's hip-hop golden era. It's timeless low cut design transcends generations, looking just at home in 19' as it did in 89'.
2 Pairs of Nicholas Deakins socks, plain black with embroided rose on each ankle and stitched Nicholas deakins name on the base. Made from naturally-renewable resources, these bamboo ( Viscose ) socks are not only environmentally friendly, but also feel luxuriously soft next to your skin.

The viscose material that's derived from bamboo is moisture absorbing and thermo-regulating to help keep your skin warm in the winter and cool during the summer.Socks made from bamboo have particular natural anti-bacterial functions and deodorization value. Bamboo allows socks to help keep feet fresher for longer and healthier as the fabric naturally stops bacteria from spreading.
Nicholas Deakins is now widely recognised as one of the UK's premium lifestyle fashion brands for mens designer and casual shoes Established 30 years ago the brand has continued to maintain its core values and successfully combine innovative, practical designs with quality manufacture to produce collections of casual and designer footwear for the discerning follower of men's fashion.
All our Deakins Classic footwear uses memory foam. Memory foam was originally developed for use in the USA space programme. Although it was never actually used by NASA, it did enjoy a following in the medical world and Nicholas Deakins has seized on its properties for use in the footbeds of our Deakins Collections.

So Harry’s Deakin school shoes have lasted 12 weeks and are falling to pieces and holes in them. The shop say that’s acceptable wear and tear. I say that’s rubbish. No replacement offered even though not fit for purpose. Have spoken to other mums and three have had the same poor quality product. They received replacement pairs straight away. First time buying these shoes and will be the last.

Love these guys (and gals), always a welcoming smile, never any pressure to buy, helpful advice on what items suit you and which items don't.
The clothes I've purchased, and there's been many, have lasted for years.
My favourite shop.

Very Rude female assistant at the Boar Lane store in Leeds shockingly poor quality products and the customer service even after contacting head office is diabolical. They have no interest in resolving a very basic matter no alternative offered just a big wave goodbye. They are about fleecing the customer of money to bank roll more rubbish quality stock. AVOID BUYING ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY.

Bought some school shoes for my son and all the tread has worn from the bottom in 7.5 weeks. Absolutely terrible… customer service, was told this was not a manufacturing fault. Avoid if you want your shoes to last longer than 8 weeks for £45!

Online service is terrible, you buy a item of clothing, then I was told they don’t have it in stock after purchase, then they try to offer me a coat that is cheaper then the one i purchased No concern at all, very disappointing, will not be buying from this company again

Today at approximately 17:00 my friend and I went to your bore lane store as I wanted to purchase a jacket and… shoes and maybe a top. But when I asked the lady for a size she went and got it, gave me the shoe and walked away and continued talking to other staff members and looking out the window instead of asking and helping the customer. They looked bored and not wanting to be in store. I wasn't even greeted or acknowledged when I entered! Their was only and mother and son and two other staff members stood around. The other customers even said they shalt be returning. I was so embarrassed

Bought some patrol boots last night whilst 25% discount was on .. all order went through and recieved a phone this morning saying that they'd been a mistake and there don't have the size I ordered!! couldn't tell me if they would be getting more in stock which shocks me to say it's from Nicholas deakins shop themselfs... this is not the only time… it as happened.. I have noticed that other stockist online also have way more stock than the ND shop
yh so now I've missed out on the 25% off those boots and gotta wait for the money to go back into my bank which will easily take a few days!
