Founded in 1873 by Thomas Church and his three sons, Church’s is a high-end English luxury footwear label. Famous amongst politicians and actors such as Tony Blair and Rowan Atkinson, the brand introduced the revolutionary concept of right and left shoe in the ‘Adaptable’ model, advertised to be available in a variety of widths, materials and half-sizes.
The family business was taken over by Prada in 1999, and has since then expanded its outlets overseas.
