Our History John Brown Frame arrived in Dunedin from Scotland in the 1880s and soon established a footwear manufacturing business – a partnership known as Craigie, Frame & Thompson. By 1901, the partnership had dissolved and J.B. (as he was affectionately known) had established his own business with son Maxwell – J.B. Frame & Son, at 211 Hanover Street, the site of the present-day store. Maxwell’s sons Peter and Jack eventually joined the business, establishing a small retail side. The fourth generation joined in the early 1980s – Peter’s sons Greg and Mike, and Jack’s son Murray – and the business’ name was updated to Frames Footwear. Over a hundred years after it all began, a fifth generation joined the ranks. Greg’s three sons Nic, Adam, and Patrick, Mike’s son Tom and daughter Jess, and Mike and Greg’s niece and nephew Amy and Max Nicolson, have all experienced the world of shoe retail. Making sure the business keeps up with the times, Adam and Tom help to maintain the store’s online presence.
