Seychelles started on the beaches of Venice, California in 1984. In 1999, a new Seychelles team was formed.

Due to this they coined the phrase "The Independent Edge"; embodying the spirit that girls can be anything they want to be - and they can do it on their own terms. Since most girls can't make their own shoes, they set out with a lofty goal - " To give her what she wants if she only knew she could have it."
