About Tucker And Tate®

Welcome to Tucker And Tate®, your destination for high quality boots, shoes, clothing and more for the whole family. We are dedicated to providing comfortable, durable and stylish products that allow you to embrace your own unique sense of fashion and fun.

Our Story

The Tucker And Tate® brand was founded in 2019 by husband and wife duo Tucker and Tate Johnson. As parents themselves, Tucker and Tate struggled to find footwear and clothing for their family that was both fashionable and comfortable for everyday wear. Most kids’ shoes and clothes seemed poorly made, while adult styles sacrificed comfort for style.

Tucker had years of experience working in the footwear industry, while Tate had an eye for fashion and design. Together they saw an opportunity to create a brand that offered the best of both worlds: durable products crafted with quality materials and construction methods that also have beautiful, modern aesthetics.

The name Tucker And Tate® pays homage to this husband and wife team and their goal to design products suitable for the entire family. Tucker brings his expertise in shoe making, while Tate lends her fashion sense – together they create versatile looks perfect for school, work, play and every occasion in between.

Since those early days, Tucker and Tate have assembled a talented team of designers, developers and customer service specialists to help bring their vision to life. While staying true to their original mission, Tucker And Tate® has grown into a premier lifestyle brand beloved by families across the country.

Our Design And Development Process

At Tucker And Tate®, comfort meets style through thoughtful design and testing. Our talented team works hard to create products that look great, feel amazing and stand up to real life.

Research And Concept Development

The design process starts by identifying customer needs and marketplace trends. Our designers research current fashion and footwear styles, while also listening to direct customer feedback and paying attention to broader shifts in lifestyle and preferences.

This research informs each new concept, ensuring our products balance aesthetic appeal with functionality. Key considerations include versatility, ease of wear and purpose. Whether it’s a shoe for hiking or a dress for date night, form follows function.

Material Sourcing

Next we source premium quality materials that align with the product vision while meeting our standards for responsible sourcing. The materials we choose directly impact the look, feel and performance of each product, so this step is crucial.

For leather goods, we work with tanneries using sustainable practices. Our fabrics come from trusted mills that utilize methods like recycled synthetics and organic cotton farming. Even small parts like zippers and snaps are vetted to enhance durability.

Product Design And Development

With research and materials set, our designers start drafting patterns and prototypes. They consider every detail – from the number of stitches on a sole to the placement of pockets on a jacket.

Multiple rounds of samples are created and tested, making tweaks until each product meets expectations for aesthetic appeal, comfort, support, ease of wear and performance. Our development team rigorously wears, washes and reviews products before finalizing a design.

Responsible Manufacturing

Once a design is approved, we partner with carefully selected manufacturers to produce each product. We only work with factories that uphold safe, ethical working conditions and utilize quality control practices.

During production we regularly check-in to ensure all specifications are being met. For example, we might review the waterproofing performance of a jacket or flexibility of a shoe sole. Rigorous quality assurance at every manufacturing step ensures only the best products bear the Tucker And Tate® name.

Customer Feedback

The final and most important step happens when a product reaches our customers’ hands. We eagerly await feedback to understand what’s working and how we can improve. Our customer insights directly inform future designs.

This cyclical process allows us to keep our products fresh and relevant while never compromising on comfort, quality or style. We’re excited to continue learning and evolving alongside our customers and their families!
