History
Founding
The company started out in 1990, when Charles Wong and his younger brother Keith Wong worked at their parent's shoe store in the Ang Mo Kio district of Singapore. They had wanted to learn the ropes of managing a shoe business[4] before subsequently opening their first store in 1996 at Amara Shopping Centre (now known as the 100 AM).
