| Church & Co, one of
Britain's oldest shoe manufacturers, was founded in 1873 by
brothers William, Thomas and Alfred Church, whose philosophy was
that their shoes should be made by the most skilled craftsmen
and last a lifetime.
Even now, 131 years later, the company can
still boast that its 250 operation process takes 8 weeks to make
each pair of shoes.
The enduring
popularity of Church & Co shoes has remained with the
aristocracy, politicians, City gents and professions such as
barristers, as well as being favoured by James Bond and Winston
Churchill, while more fashion-conscious modern celebrities such
as footballer Ian Wright have also succumbed to their
traditional charms |
