Church's was founded in 1873 by Thomas Church and his 3 sons, Alfred, William and Thomas jr., who could count on family experience in the production of handmade shoes dating back to 1675.

In the space of a few years, Church's was transformed from a craft workshop to a benchmark firm for high quality footwear.

A new factory was opened in 1957 and is still today the firm's worldwide headquarter.

It still takes up to eight weeks to produce a pair of Church's  shoes - each undergoes over 250 detailed manual operations before it leaves the factory.

Church's history is synonymous for tradition and innovation. The great styles such as Oxfords and Brogues are beyond fashion and never date, although colors and details may vary from season to season.
Next to the traditional collection, Church´s offers a range o styles, which are addressed to men´s and ladies, who look for a trendy twist.
