Wildsmith Shoes is a high-end English handmade footwear manufacturer, founded in London in 1847 by husband and wife team, Matthew and Rebecca Wildsmith. They based their business on making and repairing boots for the Household Cavalry.
Wildsmith was bought from John Wildsmith in 2013 by Savile Row tailoring company, Cad & The Dandy[1] and was subsequently bought by Herring Shoes in 2016 to produce luxury ready-to-wear men's footwear.[2] John Wildsmith is widely credited with the saying, "You are either in your bed or in your shoes so it pays to invest in both".[3]
