Eight generations of our family have been crafting the finest sports footwear since 1776.

Joe Foster, my Great Grandfather, was a founding member of AAA, hand making shoes for the Olympic stars of 1924; Harold Abrams and Eric Liddell, featured in ‘Chariots of Fire’.

My Father and Uncle founded Reebok in 1960 and I was part of the team that created the iconic aerobic and fitness shoes that the company is renowned for. 

My wife, Jan and I created the neoprene revolution in sports and agricultural boots back in 2000.

At Grubs® our tradition guides us to provide you with the most comfortable performance footwear available today.
