From eye surgery to espadrille design…
Zaccys was founded in London in 2015 by Meg Cope, a former consultant eye surgeon with over twenty years experience in medicine working for the NHS.
In 2012, Meg took a career break
to look after her youngest child, Zac, when he was diagnosed with leukaemia. Happily he successfully completed his treatment in 2015 when Meg chose to name her new venture after him.
Zaccys are designed by Meg in London
and handmade by master craftsmen in Spain. Zaccys are beautiful yet exceptionally comfortable, and are designed specifically to lengthen and flatter the leg.
Zaccys seeks to repay
the tremendous support that Meg and her family received during her son’s illness. We have therefore chosen to make a financial donation of £2.00 to Children With Cancer and CLIC Sargent charities for every pair of Zaccys sold.
Thanks to our signature, high specification,
deep-cushioned insole, ultra-lightweight, shock-absorbing, cork wedge interiors and full leather linings
Zaccys have no ankle fixings,
feature maximally cutaway uppers, a platform with every heel height and warm, nude shades.
Zaccys offer three different wedge heel heights
and timeless designs - solving all your summer shoe needs!
Zaccys achieve the finest quality finish
by collaborating with master craftsmen and sourcing only the finest leathers, natural cotton and jute.
The desire to produce a beautiful, flattering yet truly comfortable shoe
was Meg’s primary aim and we believe we have made the most comfortable luxury wedge espadrille available.
Every aspect of Zaccys design and construction
has been considered with the same meticulous attention to detail that Meg operated with in her previous career as an eye surgeon.
As a doctor Meg always aimed
to place her patients at the centre of everything she did. Similarly for Zaccys we are committed to putting our customers at the heart of our brand.
The inspiration behind the brand
is sunshine and warm, happy Mediterranean memories.
The principle of Giving Back is fundamental to Zaccys and our charitable partnerships are integral to our business.
We would love to hear from you with any views, ideas, suggestions or thoughts on our shoes or our brand. We are a young company so will no doubt make a few mistakes which we will try to fix promptly. Please feel free to contact us via any of our social media channels, or alternatively you can email me directly on: meg@zaccys.com.
Sincerely,
