Grenson - Men's Shoes Made in England
Since 1866, Grenson has steadfastly crafted shoes for men in its third and original factory in Northamptonshire, England. They embrace the ‘Goodyear Welted’ process, a time-honoured method that originated in England during the 1800s. Grenson’s men’s shoes endure up to 8 weeks of meticulous craftsmanship, involving over 200 operations. Despite its time-intensive nature, this technique ensures unparalleled durability. From sneakers to sandals, all Grenson shoes embody this commitment. G: One Grenson shoes are made from skin to box in their Northampton factory in England. G: Two shoes use all the same British materials but these are handmade overseas for a more affordable price. So choose the men’s shoes that state G: One in the description for a shoe fully made in the UK.
Dr Martens - Made in England
The history of Dr. Martens shoes begins in 1947 in the United Kingdom when Dr. Klaus Maertens, a German doctor, created the iconic boots during his recovery from a skiing injury. Dr. Maertens wanted a shoe that was more comfortable and supportive than the traditional shoe designs of the time. He designed a new type of sole with an air–cushioned, shock–absorbing sole that provided extra comfort and support. He then teamed up with a local cobbler, Mr. Griggs, to manufacture the shoes. Although not all their range is made in the UK, with much made in Asia, you can still be part of the movement to encourage them to bring back manufacturing to Britain.
