LoQ

LoQ is derived from the surnames of Keren Longkumer and Valerie Quant. After meeting while studying footwear design, the pair sought to create a line of timeless classics in modern articulations. With a mutual affinity for minimal yet unconventional proportions, shapes, and colors — LoQ was formed in 2015. Handcrafted in the south of Spain, the shoes are made with quality materials and techniques of a time-honored tradition. This artisanal work in leather was their first venture into upholding slow craft, in a fast-paced and changing design sphere. 

Designing from Los Angeles and India — the co-founders are influenced by their contrasting locales — an intimate creative process connected to place and culture. Calling three parts of the world home, LoQ has nurtured their collaborative eye, and appreciation for distinctive spaces.
