HOF: Labels, heels and nail patterns - Secrets to ID the maker - Page 16

Harrison James.

I thought harrison james was just a store.

It is. I was joking since I saw it too.

Who makes Mark McNairy shoes? They are goodyear welted and made in England

Forum consensus has generally been that Brooks English, which these are, are/were made by Church's. Can anyone confirm the maker on these?

Does anyone know a high-end Italian manufacturer of leather and knit that has a running dear logo? I totally forgot its name, but it on pairs with Brunello, at least. I think it sounds as "Scagetti", "Sciatti" or something like that.

I always forget. It's either Cheaney or Church's.

They're Cheaney due to the straight cut piece of the rubber on the heel and the detailing around the sole (what do you call that) - Cheaney makes this looks like !!!!!, while others create the A shapes.

I know Church's also does an angle.

Cheaney can be identified by the engrossment on the insole.

It says something like:

Made in
Leather Insole
England

The sole of above pair looks a lot like these Cheaney Boston (picture borrowed from this AAAC post)



or these Cheaney Milford (pictured borrowed from this blog post

Any pictures?

I'm pretty sure this is Ravazzolo they've made suits for the hand-made Scabal Sartoriale line, as well as Harrison James, apparently (I snagged the ebay one ) someone's selling one of the B&S forum, and a small part of the label is seen there

Anyone recognize this label? This is a handmade Italian suit. Any ideas? Here are the two labels in the pants:

These must be Cheaney as they have that very insole stamp. I just got them, and they're fabulous shoes, just what I've been wanting.

Thanks for the help!

Can anyone identify this heel pattern? the shoes labeled "Bench made for McDuffie by Lotus of London, England" Thanks.
