Testimonials

 

“The shoes that you have already made for me must rank as the most attractive and comfortable footwear that I can recall wearing, so I would just like to take this opportunity to congratulate you on your outstanding workmanship”
Mr Gordon McMillan, Lancashire

 

"I am delighted with my shoes.  My feet haven't felt as comfortably shod for as long as I can remember!  I am particularly proud of my brogues - I really didn't think I'd ever have a stylish pair again."

Mr Quintin Winlo, Yorkshire

 

"I still can't believe those beautiful two-tone grey shoes are really mine.  What a perfect finish to every detail of the shoes.  You are truly a 'Master Craftsman'!  I walked in them all day on Sunday - they were just like gloves on my feet."

Mrs Friede Nokes, Harrogate

 

“Thank you, John, for the black apron-fronts, my third pair.  Don't forget my next slot, please.  I have been wanting to ask if any of your other customers have ever mentioned the sheer pleasure that simply owning and putting on your shoes brings.  (The comfort your craftsmanship brings goes without saying.)  It is perhaps strange but I imagine someone who owned an Old Master would know what I mean.”

Mr Ian Dickinson, Alderney

 

''The fit of John's shoes is so perfect and the feeling so light, that it is hard to believe that there is something on your feet!!  I can thoroughly recommend John.  His skill and expertise is second to none and he gives a very friendly and efficient service.  At the end of the day, you come away with a work of art, tailor made for each individual.  What more could one ask?  I am now the proud owner of four pairs of John's shoes."
Mrs Anne Musson, Clitheroe

 

"Thanks for the super pair of shoes, they look great and the fit is excellent.  I'm really pleased with them."

"Just a note to say how much I am enjoying the brown brogues.  They are wonderfully comfortable and I admire the craftsmanship every time I put them on."
