These Gaziano & Girling MTO’s were in and out of the store the very same day. Both pairs for one of our favorite clients, who now owns four G&G’s. Given that he can have them made in his size, 9C has made him a true convert. I was quite happy to hear him say, “Since [...]
Imagine trekking through the Alps or for that matter the Street of New York when the boots you’re wearing start wearing you out. The Traiano hiking boots by Church’s are cut generously in width to accommodate heavy socks and are surprisingly light in weight. The deep grooved soles afford superb traction on snow or ice [...]

We received this order for a pair of Artioli MTO’s by way of a girlfriend that brought in her boyfriends very old pair of shoes and asked if it could be made again. We photographed the originals and sent it to Artioli. They identified the style and Voila a new pair was made.
This pair of Edward Green Banbury’s is on the 202 last in Chestnut Antique with Dainite soles. They were sent as a try on pair for our client (UK 6.5E) before proceeding with his original order of the Silverstone. They looked so beautiful and fit so well that he decided to purchase them.
