Sarah Adlam and Emma Lakin of W S Foster & Son and Henry Maxwell Bespoke Shoes are touring the United States beginning today. They will be showing their lines of bespoke and made to order shoes, as well as their bespoke accessories.
Regular readers know I think Foster's shape and coloring are as good as it gets in the world of English shoemaking. Bespoke pricing begins at £1,870 ex VAT and a special discount is offered for the second and subsequent pair ordered during the tour.
Contact either Sarah or Emma at their hotel for an appointment to see perhaps the most interesting shoes of the trunk show season.

Ha ha!
WS Foster, yes. Henry Maxwell?
I thought hunting boots were slightly different on that side of the pond?
Well they are the same company and we can still hunt foxes legally on this side of the pond.
They make incredible riding boots - the queen gets hers made there. But I think they cost around £4000.
The shoe to the far left of the photo: Is it a leather or cloth braded tie? Attractive shoe.
Do you like the antiqued black look? I personally find it quite ugly.
Braided leather Patrick.
The extreme antiquing is not to everyone's taste, I agree.
