Crockett & Jones

Buying tip - Winter sales 2023

Oh how things have changed in the world. Just five years ago or so, C&J was still rather hard to find a wide range of online, they prioritised physical stores so the relatvely rare online retailers often were low on stock, and to find decent sales of the brand was even more rare. Now, Crockett & Jones have their own webshop with basically their entire range, and twice a year they run a large sale. Up to 30% on a good selection of products.

 

Cavour

Saint Crispin’s, Stefano Bemer, Bontoni and their own Spanish-made Goodyear welted shoes or Chinese hand welted top range – as usual Norwegian store Cavour has a surprisingly extensive sale. Lots of models often in many sizes are part of the sale, between 30-40% discount, which gives great chances for a nice bargain.

The past six months Shoepassion has revamped, with a new website and instead of selling shoes under the Shoepassion brand they’ve introduced the new labels Henry Stevens and N93 along with Heinrich Dinkelacker which they’ve owned since many years, plus started selling a bunch of other cheaper brands as well. It’s mainly from Henry Stevens and Dinkelacker one find welted footwear, and have to search a bit harder for the good stuff nowadays, but there’s a bunch part of the sale at up to 50% off.
