The Restory announces partnership with Nicholas Kirkwood
Luxury aftercare specialist The Restory is joining forces with Nicholas Kirkwood, as their aftercare partner for the eponymous brand in the UK and globally. The partnership extends Nicholas Kirkwood’s testament to sustainability and delivers the promise that luxury can be for life.
Vanessa Jacobs, Founder & CEO of The Restory, comments: “Nicholas Kirkwood is one of the most iconic brands of the last decade and we are thrilled to launch our partnership powering their aftercare. Trusted aftercare is crucial to sustainability and we are grateful to our partners at Farfetch for continuing to help transform aftercare into an integral part of the fashion experience.”
Nicholas Kirkwood comments: “We couldn’t be more excited to be partnering with The Restory to help giving new life to our shoes. As part of our commitment towards sustainability, we aim to continue choosing the best quality, durable materials, with the added goal of finding new natural and compostable alternatives to virgin plastic and its derivates. With the help of The Restory, we hope to bring new life to our client’s most loved shoes.”
From 4th October 2021, Nicholas Kirkwood customers can access a wide range of aftercare services from re-heeling and cleaning through to leather restoration and repair to extend the life of their shoes. The service will be available directly through the Nicholas Kirkwood website, through Farfetch Platform Solutions.

The Farfetch Group is committed to sustainability and, over time, we’d love to enable access to services like The Restory for other Farfetch Platform Solution clients and partners.”
