Who made these Brooks English shoes?

I like those. Maybe C&J? You can check against this: http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=24109 Mind telling how much?

$100 for that shoe is cheap.

I suppose that they are Cheaney and that 911 indicates last number.

These are C&J and these are Church's.

sole looks very similar but not identical to a recent pair of Cheaney's I had

yes but my cheaneys are from the currently available line, they are much more recent. Production methods can easily change.

These are Royal Tweed by Cheaney. I judged by typeface and "last/width size" on the quarter lining. Do your shoes have the stamp of "MADE IN ENGLAND LEATHER INSOLES" on the center of insoles?

Anyhow, Cheaney will answer your question.

It doesn't matter whether the rubber inset in the heel is straight- or dovetail edged. Shoe factories get those 'top lifts' ready prepared from their supplier. They just put on what the buyer asks for (maybe all BB/Peal shoes have straight edged rubber insets). That would not need a change in production or different setup of the machinery.

The shoes are either Cheaney or Alfred Sargent.

I found another pair on ebay. Is it possible to tell the size from this? I assume the B corresponds with width. Do English B widths correspond with American B widths?

In the past I thought the consensus had been that 'Brooks English' were Church's.

Nice shoes, Karim.

On a related note.

Here is an inner picture of a "Brooks English" by Churchs:



Can anyone tell what size and width this is?

Thanks!
