My great-great Grandfather William opened the first Loake factory with his brothers John & Thomas, back in 1880. Today, five generations and more than 140 years later, the Loake association with fine, handmade footwear lives on.

As the current custodians of Loake, we are immensely proud of the commitment of our forefathers and the tradition they worked so hard to establish. For this reason, we are honoured to continue making Goodyear Welted shoes in the same factory built in 1894.

Alongside our English Goodyear welted footwear, we also design and produce a range of shoes outside the UK, using a variety of constructions. This enables us to offer a complete wardrobe of shoes, for every occasion. We now export to more than 50 countries and have become a favourite with discerning customers worldwide.

Each individual pair of Loake Goodyear welted shoes takes eight weeks to produce, while some 130 skilled craftspeople, up to 75 shoe parts and 200 different operations are involved. We believe there is no finer way to make a shoe.
