It's all about shoes.
Introduction FW
Innovative magnet-mechanical closures that redefine how shoes are fastened – intuitive, fast and design-driven
In the footwear and fashion industries, creativity and bold design play a crucial role. This directly influences the requirements for the right components, including fasteners and buckles.
With magnet fasteners specially developed by FIDLOCK, shoes can be opened one-handed and in a controlled manner – a clear advantage in everyday use, sports applications and professional environments. The magnet-mechanical fasteners are robust, durable and suitable for a wide range of footwear concepts, from performance and outdoor shoes to functional lifestyle designs.
For greater comfort, safety, a design upgrade and a noticeably improved user experience – with every step.

Intuitive closing through magnetic guidance
Secure mechanical locking
Maximum design freedom
Fast operation – even with limited dexterity
Endless possibilities for shoe design – be it extravagant or discreet
Footwear and fashion designers prove on a daily base that their products are more than essentials, limited to functionality. We constantly need shoes and clothes – so why not make them something you love to wear? To a canvas that represents our inner colours? We set no boundaries for the creativity of product designers, ranging from cool sneakers to elegant footwear!
We offer options that blend in almost invisibly into your shoe. On the other hand, many of our magnetic fasteners, e.g. the V-BUCKLE, can represent an eyecatcher on extravagant and modern designs. On top of that, you can individually adapt our magnetic fasteners. Options range from branding with your logo to individual colours and designs to match the overall picture and colourway of your products – visit our customization page for more info!

WINCH – diverse applications in all areas
Of course, fasteners that were initially coming from an idea to revolutionize footwear fastening are ideal for the application on products of other industries. Prime examples are our WINCH fasteners, based on a new FIDLOCK technology which adds the functionality of a ratchet to the unique FIDLOCK concept. You can find more information about the applications and possibilities on our page dedicated to the WINCH momentum and WINCH elegance.
