Each pair of shoes by English heritage brand, Church, takes up to eight weeks of meticulous hand-crafting – that’s a lot of work to get these Prenton Chelsea boots fit for a rock ‘n’ roll legend. Crafted from tactile suede with the traditional pull tab and elasticated sides, all that’s left for you to do is pair their pointed silhouette with skin-tight jeans (and preferably a leather jacket, but we’re not picky).
Stone Church, aptly named as the rock upon which Church’s was founded, was born in 1675 and trained as a cordwainer and master shoemaker. His skills were passed down to his greatgrandson Thomas who opened a small factory with his sons and his wife Eliza in Northampton, on 1st May 1873. Northampton is a town not far from London with a history in shoemaking dating back to Cromwellian times. In the space of a few years, Church’s was transformed from a craft workshop into a benchmark firm for high-quality footwear, both locally and for the most demanding shoe shops in London and elsewhere in Europe.
