- “There are a couple false economies in the world - buying cheap meat, and buying cheap shoes. For me, shoes provide the bridge between practicality and art.” The Rake’s Editor Tom Chamberlin guides you through the brilliant assortment of shoes from Baudoin & Lange, John Lobb and George Cleverley, all of which are available now on TheRake.com. Video by Marcus Ebanks.

For most of my many decades, I have purchased hand-made (not bespoke) shoes. I began with Bally but found their soles too thin and uncushioned for the Swiss cobbled streets. They did wear incredibly well. I moved on to Church's and enjoyed them enormously for style and comfort as well as durability. For the past few decades, I have worn Mephistos handmade shoes. Looking back on this shoe history has been pleasurable for me. Thank you!
Exquisite video as always.
Superb, I resole my own shoes, only relying on a tame cobbler to do the outsole stitch for me. I've been wondering about the "squared off" welt and sole, yet normal almond shape of the toe box... I think I'll try that next!
Nathan is not a Chelsea boot but a chukka 😊
CLASS ACT 👌🔥🤜🤛
It's hilarious the second my grandfather shows me attention that carrot top acts like he cares about me
PLEASE edit your website to include US sizes. Without the conversion I mistakenly ordered the wrong size and it wasn't easy to make the return. We can't all be continental flanneurs when it comes to online shopping.
I’m sorry, but why would anyone combined a gray tie with a gray suit? It’s not even a dark gray or light gray. It’s the exact same gray tone as far as I can see it.
A well-noticed example that 'taste is individual.'
