I came across this company while doing internet search: http://www.adlershoes.co.uk/index.html . The method they measure your feet makes sense and the price is so good that I wonder if they are taking any shortcuts. Do you know about the quality of the shoes, construction, materials they use etc?
I wrote to them and got this answer:
"Thank you very much for your email.
Our shoes are either Goodyear welted (by hand) or Blake welted (mainly loafers – also by hand) - we use Italian calf hide – semi aniline dyed (Brogues, Oxfords, Derby’s etc… or aniline dyed (loafers) – as per our terms, wo offer the standard 2 year warranty as dictated by the EU, but, if you treat our shoes correctly, you will enjoy them well over 10 years – re-soling is being offered at which point we also re-condition the shoes. The result however depends on how the shoes have been treated by the wearer.

If you require any further information, please don’t hesitate to contact me,

Thanks a lot
