Church's

Church's is a Northampton shoemaker producing Goodyear-welted leather footwear at its St James factory, where roughly 250 manual operations and about eight weeks of work go into each pair. The range centres on Oxfords, brogues and loafers such as the Consul, Diplomat and Burwood, plus the polished-binder Shanghai derby, boots, women's styles, small leather goods and sneakers. Prada Group has owned the company since 1999 and runs it as its British heritage label, selling through directly operated stores in London, Milan, Paris, New York and Tokyo.
