Tricker’s Japanese store is its first outside the UK.
The company was founded by Joseph Tricker in 1829 and has had its Royal Warrant since 1989.
Martin Mason, managing director, said: “If you head into Tokyo, Northampton footwear has a really important place”.
Mr Mason said that footwear made in the county was “revered” in Japan and seen as a “luxury brand”.
He said that 80% of the firm’s sales were overseas, and that it could open other stores in countries such as South Korea and the United States.
