Onex
In 1972, Onnik E. Kouyoumdjian an immigrant from a family of European shoemakers, founded Onex Shoes. His vision of the American dream coupled with his passion for fine women's shoe design inspired him to start a business in designing, manufacturing and distributing the Onex shoe line nationwide. The styles are carefully handcrafted in the United States featuring the finest components, materials, and ornaments from around the world. In the 1970s, he was the first to introduce the clear Lucite slide, better known as the "Glass Slipper." It made its mark in women's footwear, designed to match everything in a womans wardrobe, and it continues to be a strong favorite of the Onex line.
Mr. Onnik was as unique as the shoes he created; his charm and debonaire style were memorable. He had a great ability to lift spirits, and to capture the attention of all with his charismatic personality. He had a remarkable presence and left an unforgettable impression on those he met. He touched peoples lives with countless acts of kindness, and he gained the respect and friendship of many of his customers and employees. He believed in hard work, the truth and in always being a gentleman. This code of behavior was his high standard for everything, including Onex shoes, which are produced with integrity. In the industry, Mr. Onnik was known as a man of honor.
His untimely death in 1991 marked a very tragic day in the history of Onex; one that those who loved him will never completely recover from. His memory will always be cherished in our hearts and minds. His death empowered his family members and a team of committed employees to continue his vision. A team whose key players have been alongside the company for over 20 years. We will always dedicate the success of the company to Mr. Onnik; he lives on in each new design.
