Our Goodyear Welted shoes have a tough strip of leather sewn around the shoe to secure the upper to the insole.

This makes the shoe more robust, durable and water resistant. It also means the shoe can be completely re-soled if necessary, giving you years of wear out of a single pair. In use since 1869, the Goodyear Welted method is favoured by English manufacturers and copied by shoemakers all over the world.
