About Church's

Church’s is a high-end footwear manufacturer that has a long and rich history of craftsmanship and innovation. The brand was founded in 1873 by Thomas Church and his family in Northampton, England, a town famous for its leather and shoe industry since the Middle Ages. Church’s was one of the first brands to introduce the concept of right and left shoes, as well as half sizes and different widths, to ensure a perfect fit for its customers. The brand also pioneered the use of the Goodyear welted construction method, which makes the shoes durable, comfortable, and easy to repair. Church’s shoes are known for their classic and timeless designs, such as the oxford, the derby, the brogue, and the boot. The brand also offers a range of casual and sporty footwear, as well as accessories and shoe care products. Church’s shoes are made with the finest materials and the utmost attention to detail, using both traditional and modern techniques. Each pair of shoes undergoes over 250 manual operations and takes up to eight weeks to produce. Church’s shoes are worn by discerning customers all over the world, including celebrities, politicians, royalty, and James Bond. The brand has expanded its presence globally, with more than 50 stores across Europe, Asia, and North America. Church’s is part of the Prada Group since 1999, which has helped the brand grow and innovate while preserving its heritage and identity.
