Manufacture de chaussures depuis 1891. Une transmission des savoir-faire depuis 120 ans. Une Manufacture et une seule à Limoges, où sont produites toutes les collections, montées sur semelles cuir, dans le respect du savoir-faire bottier. Malgré son nom à consonance anglaise, J.M. Weston trace les contours d’une élégance très française, voire très parisienne, où l’on ose twister esprit intemporel et influences contemporaines. J.M. Weston, ce sont aussi la petite et la grande maroquinerie, les ceintures au cousu-sellier et les commandes spéciales.

John Lobb equips its wearer for life in movement. The British bootmaker’s durable designs commemorate the markings of distinct routes travelled in life, spanning city commutes and adventures in nature. Lobb boasts a bespoke atelier in Paris, a By Request service and a ready-to-wear collection, produced in its Northampton workshop. Since its inception over 150 years ago, Lobb has trodden an innovative path. Its founder, who travelled on foot from the Cornish coast to London in 1851 as a young apprentice bootmaker, also journeyed to Australia during the gold rush, creating hollow heeled boots, in which miners could stow contraband gold nuggets. On returning to London in 1863, Lobb was named as the bootmaker to the Prince of Wales, before opening the brand’s first bespoke boutique on Regent Street in 1866. Three years later. John Lobb evolved its international presence, opening its first Paris boutique. In 1976, the brand was acquired by Hermès, and in 1982 it first launched a ready-to-wear collection. Today, the label has a retail network spanning 19 global stores, from New York to Beijing, Dubai to Tokyo. John Lobb Ltd, remains family-run, catering to its local bespoke clientele and operates from their James’s Street location in London. Celebrating the expert craftsmanship of its artisans, John Lobb designs still incorporate artisanal techniques and silhouettes discovered in the house’s extensive archive. The label’s ready-to-wear designs are made using a complex 190-step manufacturing process in Northampton. Today, this includes the use of technical fabrics and the incorporation of ultra-light soles, which ensure comfort and durability in movement. True value lies in footwear that lasts a lifetime and John Lobb’s versatile and timeless offering ranges from boots to loafers, sandals to sneakers. They act as timeless companions to life’s journey, absorbing its markings along the way.
