High-end shoes with historical and demanding know-how . We recommend them for the beauty and quality of their pieces. Crockett & Jones has been a trusted name in the world of shoes for decades.
Be careful, you need the budget that goes with it.
The House of Crockett & Jones was founded in 1879 by Charles Jones and his brother-in-law James Crockett , in Northampton : the cradle of English men's shoes. The brand offers men three ranges of very good quality shoes ( Hand Grade range, Main Line range and Shell Cordovan leather range) .
For five generations, the family business has been managed by the descendants of the founders, who still ensure that their ancestral know-how is respected: attention to detail and maintaining high standards of traditional craftsmanship.
The specificity of the Goodyear construction of these shoes (the welt stitching) , which combines style, comfort and longevity, dates back to 19th century techniques. It requires a highly qualified workforce to carry out more than two hundred manual operations, requiring up to eight weeks of work per pair of shoes.
