The name comes from the location of its first store, which was founded in 1973, the Solo Building in Manhattan, located at 9 West 57th Street in New York City. Today, the company has more than 1,035 points of sale in 78 countries around the world, and more than 200 stores in Asia alone, of which more than 30 also offer fashion collections.
 
Jiuxi belongs to the middle and low end in the United States, and in the past few years, it has become the favorite foreign women's shoe brand of overseas Taoke in the early days with its high style and reasonable price. The Demetria and Zuha series have raised rubber blocks on the sole for better grip and friction; However, the insole is PU leather, which is slightly less sweat-absorbent. The Joker and Flownder series are sandals, the former has a wedge heel and the upper elements are brightly colored stripes; The latter has a thick sole, and the straps and ankle straps are plain, which is more conventional and suitable for commuting. Both the Bigapple and Gilboy collections have flat soles, with the Gilboy embedded with lightweight air cushions and a slightly bent sole for a more ergonomic curve for a more snug fit and easier walking than regular flat fishermen.
 
At present, there is only one 3cm high thick-soled fisherman's shoe in the Tmall store of Jiuxi in China, which is made of cowhide for easy perspiration and breathability, and the upper embroidery is relatively fine, which is very suitable for simple jeans. 6pm and other overseas shopping websites have more updated styles, and the price is more advantageous, with an average price of only about 300 yuan. The parent company group GRI outlet flagship store also has some old models for sale, and the price is about 199 yuan.
