Introducing the E980 Origins by Foreign Objects

The E980 Origins is our debut sneaker, inspired by East London’s diversity and 80s-90s runner aesthetics. Named after the postcode E9, where I grew up, and 1980, the year I was born, this shoe represents both heritage and style. The rise of 90s sneaker culture sparked my lifelong love for sneakers, and the E980 is a reflection of that passion.

Crafted from premium leather and suede with an EVA sole and a recycled mesh liner, the E980 combines classic design with modern details. It’s our first step into the world of luxury sneakers, blending quality with the unique energy of East London.

Embracing the Unknown: The Magic of Being Different

We are all foreign to someone, at some point. Not in a strange and alien way. More in a mysterious and adventurous way. The curious, ‘I want to know more’ type of foreign. With that ‘little bit of magic’ type of foreign. It’s for those who want to know the not known. For the ones that seek us out. Set apart. To set pace. We are sartorialists and explorers. We are inquisitive and unusual. Yes, we are all foreign at some point, but only for our uniqueness and individuality. These qualities bring us together. Not for us to be understood, rather, to be expressed. The new. The unexpected. The foreign.
