CORDWRAITH
Three Generations. Two Crafts. One Heritage.
More Than Just A Name.
CORDWRAITH represents the meeting of two crafts: forged steel and fine leather craftsmanship. Rooted in generations of family heritage, it marks the beginning of a new chapter in our journey. The name was given to us by someone whose belief and encouragement played a special role in bringing this vision to life. A name with a personal story, now carrying forward a generations-old tradition.
01 / THE BEGINNING — 1982
Where It All Began.
Our story began in 1982 with our grandfather, whose hands shaped steel through fire, patience and traditional blacksmithing.
From forging knives by hand to mastering the art of working with metal, he laid the foundation of a craft that would pass through generations.
02 / A NEW DIRECTION
From Steel To Soles.
As his journey evolved, our grandfather expanded his craftsmanship into footwear by beginning to make shoe moulds.
What started with forged steel gradually opened the doors to another family tradition: footwear production.
03 / 1998 — THE NEXT GENERATION
A Legacy Takes Shape.
In 1998, our father took the journey further, beginning sole production under the name MG's — Mughal Sole.
Over time, Mughal Sole became OJLA SOLE. A few years later, the business expanded into manufacturing complete footwear, taking the family's craftsmanship to another level.
04 / THE THIRD GENERATION
A New Chapter. The Same Heritage.
Today, the next generation carries this legacy forward through CORDWRAITH.
Bringing together the two crafts that shaped our family's history: traditional blacksmithing and fine leather craftsmanship.
From steel transformed through fire to leather shaped by hand, CORDWRAITH brings both worlds together under one roof.
CORDWRAITH
