Allen Edmonds



Based in Port Washington, Wisconsin. The company was established in Belgium, Wisconsin in 1922.
It manufactures the vast majority of its shoes in the United States and several pairs in Italy. It is one of three American shoe companies, the others being Alden and Johnston & Murphy, that still make men's dress shoes domestically.

 Allen Edmonds are an expensive brand of shoes that men typically wear for a very long time and repair rather than replace. The company offers recrafting services, rebuilding a pair of shoes for a fee, replacing soles and heels, creating a new cork base and strip, and reapplying the finish.

Upcycling, refurbishing, made in USA. I like it !  This is a vintage "Boot Skos" boar skin chukka boot.
