Innovation begins with vision—and the courage to redefine what the world considers complete. At Kortons Brand Eyelet Company Inc., that vision led to the creation of the AlphaEyelets® Collection, the first and only jewelry-grade eyelets crafted exclusively for luxury footwear and designer fashion.
More than a product line, AlphaEyelets® represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship—a fusion of art, science, and heritage that only the true originators could bring to life.
A Legacy of Firsts
For over eight decades, Kortons has been the silent force behind some of the world’s most refined footwear. From master shoemakers to emerging couture designers, those who understand the importance of detail have long turned to Kortons for one reason—we innovate where others imitate.
The AlphaEyelets® Collection was born from that legacy. Our designers and engineers saw an opportunity to transform a humble component—the eyelet—into a luxury hallmark of design excellence.
And so, the first AlphaEyelet® was created: a precision-forged piece of art built not just to function, but to endure and inspire.
Where Engineering Meets Jewelry Design
Each AlphaEyelet® begins as a concept rooted in durability and beauty. Using fine metals such as platinum, 24k gold, and sterling silver, Kortons artisans craft every piece with a level of precision usually reserved for fine jewelry.
Our proprietary finishing process ensures each AlphaEyelet® is:
-
Corrosion-resistant
-
Tarnish-free
-
Structurally fortified for generations of wear
Through this seamless blend of engineering innovation and artistic craftsmanship, Kortons created a new design language in the world of footwear and fashion hardware.
The AlphaEyelet® doesn’t just support—it defines.
Designed for Designers
The AlphaEyelets® Collection was conceived for visionaries. For those who see beyond the ordinary lace hole—for those who believe even the smallest component deserves the same attention as the shoe itself.
From luxury sneakers and couture heels to custom dress shoes and garment designs, AlphaEyelets® give creators a way to express exclusivity through detail.
Each piece becomes a signature, a whisper of refinement that instantly communicates, this is not ordinary craftsmanship—this is Kortons.
Luxury That Lasts Beyond the Season
In fashion, trends fade—but heritage remains. Kortons designed AlphaEyelets® to embody sustainable luxury: hardware that never needs replacement, never loses luster, and never compromises integrity.
Every AlphaEyelet® represents timeless design, built to outlast fast fashion and mass production. It’s the intersection of elegance, endurance, and eco-conscious craftsmanship—a rare achievement in today’s luxury landscape.
When you choose AlphaEyelets®, you choose a product that stands as long as your brand’s reputation.
The Originators’ Promise
To be the originator means to lead—not to follow. Kortons continues to pioneer the future of footwear and fashion components, setting the global standard for what “luxury hardware” truly means.
The AlphaEyelets® Collection is more than a creation—it’s our legacy, designed to inspire generations of designers to value permanence, precision, and pure artistry.
Because while others may replicate the look, only one brand can claim the origin.
