Shane and Shawn Ward Biography

Innovative. Tenacious. Charismatic.  These are just a few words that describe the talented tour de force that is SHANE & SHAWN WARD.  The talented twin designers from New York City, by way of Detroit, launched their innovative shoe collection, SHANE&SHAWN in the Fall of 2003 with the goal of making the most comfortable - hip - fashion shoes ever! A modern, edgy dress/casual shoe and accessories line for men and women that combines hip/stylish silhouettes with athletic comfort.
