Welcome to Tiosebon® Shoes, Sneakers, Slip On Walking Shoes – your number one source for comfortable, stylish, and affordable footwear. We are a family-owned business dedicated to making high-quality shoes accessible to everyone.
Our Story
It all started in a small workshop in Fujian, China back in 1996. Our founder, Mr. Li, was a skilled shoemaker who dreamed of starting his own shoe brand. He began handcrafting leather shoes and sneakers with a few employees and selling them locally.
Word spread quickly about the comfort and quality of the shoes. Before long, Mr. Li was getting orders from stores across China. The demand kept growing, so he brought his family into the business to help meet production needs.
In the early 2000s, we opened our first factory. This allowed us to scale up manufacturing while maintaining our commitment to quality. We also started focusing on athletic sneakers and casual walking shoes – styles that paired perfectly with the rise of athleisure fashion.
Over the past 25+ years, Tiosebon has grown into one of the largest shoe manufacturers in China. Our shoes are now sold all over the world through our website and retail partners. However, we remain a family-run company at our core. Mr. Li’s children and grandchildren are now involved in running the business.

Our Design Process
Great shoes start with thoughtful design. Our talented in-house designers research the latest fashion trends and consumer needs. Then they get to work creating shoes that are equal parts comfort, style, and value.
The design process includes:
- Trend forecasting – We analyze runway shows, street style, and influencer looks to predict upcoming trends. This informs the styles, colors, and materials we choose.
- Consumer research – By gathering feedback and insights directly from customers, we learn what features are most important to them.
- Prototype development – Initial handmade samples are created to test the designs. These prototypes go through rounds of refinement until just right.
- Wear testing – Before finalizing a design, our R&D team evaluates comfort and durability through real-life wear sessions.
- Technical drawings – Precise technical drawings are made to communicate details to the production team.
- Color selection – Marketers help select on-trend colors that align with each shoe style and target audience.
We are constantly innovating and improving our collections. Our designers love breathing new life into classic silhouettes each season.
Our Manufacturing Process
Producing high volumes of shoes requires an incredible amount of skill, teamwork, and attention to detail. Here are some key facts about our manufacturing process:
- We maintain 9 factories in China equipped with cutting-edge shoe production capabilities. This gives us the capacity to make 15 million pairs per year.
- Our factories utilize the latest technologies like laser cutters, injection molding machines, and advanced bonding techniques. This improves efficiency and consistency.
- We partner with the best material suppliers in the region. For example, we source buttery full-grain leathers from top European tanneries.
- An average pair of our shoes has 55 components. Experts handle the intricate assembly work at each step.
- During assembly, our shoes pass through the hands of 200 workers on average. They take pride in their craftsmanship.

Our scale and expertise allows us to deliver exceptional quality at affordable prices. We will continue investing in technology and talent to improve our production capabilities.
Our Quality Standards
Creating reliable shoes is pointless if people don’t love wearing them. That’s why we go above and beyond with testing:
- Materials testing – We rigorously test materials like leather and mesh for durability, breathability, flexibility, and resilience.
- Wear testing – Our R&D team actually wears shoes for weeks on end to evaluate real-world performance.
- Safety testing – We simulate different hazards like slips, trips, and falls to ensure our soles provide stability and traction.
- Fit testing – Human subjects with different foot shapes and sizes test our sizing scales and dimensions.
- Reliability testing – Shoes undergo repetitive stresses like walking, running, jumping for thousands of steps to reveal weak points.
- Inspection – At each step, components are examined closely for even tiny defects before moving to the next station.
We reject any shoes that don’t pass our stringent assessments. As a result, our return rate is extremely low – under 1%. Delivering consistent excellence is our passion.
