I love the way the different Northampton manufacturers all have their own niche within this niche market. It's a fascinating industry, with wonderful products.
Kirby does an outstanding job of putting the value proposition into the common vernacular
The EG rep is just adorable with the polished head and mistracking eyes. I am so glad he was able to get a good job like this. I can imagine many bosses saying "we can't have a guy who can't see straight representing our company" But obviously, this guy just somehow turns it into a positive... (How does he do that? .. when the camera catches him head on, he looks absolutely adorable! )
Edward Green is in my opinion one of the most comfortable elegant shoe in the planet; I have only one pair in brown, which are nabsolutely astonishing. I can dress it up and I can dress it down. I love the Galway boots; I live in RI the closest Edward Green store is in NY, since sizing is very important I am planning to visit the store, I am sure and confident it will be worthy. Investing in high quality shoes elevate the appearance of any man. Like someone said “if you want to know if a man is well dressed, look down”
epitomous? Nice work. Helping modern men to cultivate their style, and inventing new portmanteau words. Keep it up Mr. Allison.
That whole cut alligator though 😍😍😍.
Cynical Texas Dad OMG. Yeah. Incredible. And the work on the bottom is incredible. Their Top Drawer is expensive - $2,600 USD - but the quality is breathtaking.
Is it actual alligator, or is it a stamped cow leather?
@@Ematched It's definitely real alligator. I feel that $2600 is probably light for an alligator shoe, I'm sure the standard calf or suedes are $2600 for this line, but the alligator must be $5000+.
Bought my first pair, awesome.. been a C&J fans for years, now time to upgrade
C & J are great. Plus, C& J are easier to wear out of the box than EG.
Found this difficult to watch with the music so strong in the background.
Another well made video. Thanks. You mentioned your father's Edward Greens so now we know where your personal passion comes from. Any chance of meeting your father in a future video?
Good video,but you need to do a video on Grenson shoes .I have repaired shoes in England for the past 15 years and Grensons shoes are as good as anything out there,on average about 20 25 % cheaper than most top line shoes try a pair you won't go wrong.
Should definitely make a video about EG top drawer

Thank you, Kirby. Your videos are always high quality.
Eeeyyy I've sat in that chair. Mink Suede Chelsea is still my favorite shoe I own.
Excellent video
Sensational video Kirby, thanks for putting it out.
The perfect Bond villain.
I swear that was what I said the first time I laid eyes on him. 😂😂
You mean 😏 Edward Green shoes 👟👟 owner Euan Denholm, right 👉, Thomas?
@@godfredboateng1048 You mean 😏 Euan Denholm?
He's quite a strange looking bloke and should really be wearing a tie to smarten himself up working as a representative for the best shoes in the world. However, he knows his stuff. The shoes are what matter, really.
Klaus Schwab is the perfect Bond villain. In fact, what he's got in the pipeline is far worse than any Bond villain.
Hello Kirby,
I'd just stumbled upon your channel and I got to say that I think its amazing. Keep up the great work. Greetings Lukas
those alligator shoes are nice!
Man that intro you two were so close! I’d have told you to fuck off out my personal space lol
thank you. I‘m really enjoying these videos. And please take no offense. For my (german - yeah , we‘re ones to talk) ears americans talking to brits is a bit like listening to orks talking to elves. amazing.
I kinda Agee!
The "Top Drawer" finishing was always something I was interested in, and to be fair it IS beautifully done, however I personally have a hard time "rationalizing" it. At that price for an MTO shoe+Top Drawer uncharge, I feel like you're well into more than 50% of the cost of a bespoke shoe from say, Cleverley (whose pricing is at £3,000 as of this writing). I suppose the daunting wait time for bespoke shoes in addition to the multiple fitting session process could turn someone away, however at this point in my life I think I would opt for ONE pair of bespoke shoes to TWO MTO's at this price point. Still, they ARE beautiful and getting a beautiful pair of the HIGHEST quality non-bespoke shoes custom made, with this level of finish, and delivered in only a few months, definitely has appeal. The older I get however, the more I look at my more outlandish MTO commissions over the years and think, "Today I'd rather have ONE pair of beautiful, bespoke black oxfords to any of these others."
Myles Kusab agree with you !! I invested in a Cleverly bespoke when I lived in NYC and that shoe survived almost 15 years and if not for an unfortunate rip that George Glasgow said was beyond repair they would have made it past 25 or more.
Well said
You know, I get this odd feeling the gentleman likes the Galway boot :) I don’t blame him, I love it. Thanks Kirby, lovely video and so nice to see the chap really knows his stuff.
ianmedium Thabjs!
is the split toe necessary for that design to be able to pull it over the last? it doesn't seem like an aesthetic choice as the handwork almost hides it completely. could someone elaborate on this?
Love the fedora.

If I compare my Edward Green with my Allen Edmonds, I find EG way too expensive
Don't compare Allen Edmunds to Edward Green. It just doesn't cut the mustard (or any other sauce or relish) in style, construction, materials or standards.
Excellent video. Loved the music in the background, however, it was slightly too repetitive, maybe a different track for the last part of the video would have been nice. Keep the good work!

Where on the quality scale would you put Edward green at ?
wonder the same
I would say on the higher end of ready to wear shoes. A little overpriced perhaps, but you do get a good quality pair of shoes for that price
I've always assumed they're at or around the same RTW quality level as John Lobb (Paris), Gaziano & Girling, Cleverley, etc.
@@kaikaichen They're not. Those other makes them 100% by hand, EG uses machinery in their process. Bespoke shoe makers generally also makes higher quality RTW shoes, where they just skip the measurement part and goes straight to creating the shoe. So the quality of the shoe is the same as a bespoke one but it just won't fit as well.
@@EdilarinProducts: I'm pretty sure that a completely 100% made-by-hand pair of shoes would cost tens of thousands of dollars, so I don't think your claim is accurate. Plus, in Kirby's video tour of G&G's Northampton factory with Tony Gaziano himself, the machines used in their shoemaking process were clearly shown and featured. I'm also pretty sure Edward Green makes bespoke shoes as well.
Kirby, you forgot to mention Edward Green shoes 👟👟 owner Euan Denholm in this video 📼 three years ago.
Well, suppose they want to know who Euan Denholm is?
Kirby standing so close to the chap. 😂
Why are you, Kirby, so into English style? Is it the most suitable for you, or you just really enjoy it? Are you planning to make that sort of videos about craftsman or brands from Italy or France?
because england has the best build shoes for the price. but italy has only a very few good shoemakers. most italian shoes focus on style an patina that they forget that the build quality is also important. the only italian shoes i would buy RTW are enzo bonafe/bontoni/Antonio Meccariello/Paolo Scafora and Stefano Bemer
The top of the line Stefano Branchini shoes are/were also of world class quality.
the sales rep needs to learn how to position his belt properly...
I do have some of them but the only thing I dislake by the factory is the darker shade on the tip, it is orribile in my opinion
Lovely shoes but yet again no wide or extra wide fitting. Liked the square design. Hate pointy shoes
Edward Green absolutely provides different widths!
@@kirbyallison Thank you. I always have difficulty in the North of the UK.
@@chunkychinn We don't even have a smart shoe shop in my city of 220,000. I just couldn't buy shoes or clothes online
@@FrankEdavidson Buying online is really good now. I am disabled and have had to shield most of this year but I still like to have nice clothes and footwear regardless. I use a couple of online shops, Peter Christian and Samuel Windsor. All clothing and shoes are handmade and beautifully finished. I also do have some shoes made by Lobbs from when I last visited London which is about 10years ago and still look good as new!
When you pay because of the brand name. Alden imho is worth the price compared to EG. Also Allen Edmonds with their quality is hard to beat in terms of pricing.
It's a difficult conversation once you get into price/quality quotients. EG and GG are definitely on the expensive side at the $1000+ price point. But you cannot argue with the quality. Alden is really great, but, to me, the finish just isn't there. Quality shoe, but lacks the finishing and elegance of GG/EG.
I've been lucky on a few thrift excursions... So I have a pair of Edward Green dover and Alden 1340 shell Chukkas. You could make the argument that Alden is nearly up there with EG. The finish detail on the Dovers is a bit more detailed imho.
I have never seen a pair of Allen Edmonds come close to EG... Shell or otherwise. Again, just imho.
Own a pair and you will feel it .
1 tip. quality is in the places that you moest of the time can't see.
leather threatment/hand stitching/ build quality/leather quality. buy 1 allen and 1 EG wear them the same amount in a year. and see the difference in 10 years. EG will look waaaaaay better
Hello Edward green executive...
Pack and send pair's of loafers with buckle belts (brown.. tan.. black.. match to dhothis) to NYC.. you don't have shop there.. send to Warren / Helu executives in NYC.
You can cut off marketing executive's salary and send flights to somewhere around the world.. authorised stores..
But the limitations is from your end.
if one Marketing executive have salary of 50k.. and flight charges.. acomadations
That amount of salary you can spend your money to flight delivery charges..
FedEx.. Amazon.. then from the airport the postal department employees can distribute it.. the goods around the world with it weight and quality.

Do you think that Edward Green is overpriced?
Beement I was just looking them up and was very disappointed with their price points. How can one justify charging $1200 for leather upper and rubber sole? Don’t get me wrong, some of their shoes are gorgeous, but I’d prefer $400 Allen Edmonds over most Edward Green shoes.
Kirby, love the fedora!
@@jeffbrogan6147 I did the same too
@@jeffbrogan6147 I have 13 pairs of Allen Edmonds and also some Alden shoes. Alden in my book is a much nicer shoe overall.
A little bit, but they are definitely good quality shoes and on the higher end of ready to wear shoes.
@@jeffbrogan6147 a rubber sole doesn't mean low quality.
