Hey folks,
For my next purchase, I am looking into getting a pair of boots. I am looking to purchase some wallabees or the desert boots (leaning towards the wallabees, not sure about the color yet), but I am having a tough time figuring out where/how I can buy me some made in england ones rather then the made in china ones that are usually available at stores such as zappos.

I am slowly falling in love with these shoes posted over at sufu.

These are made by P&B, and I realized they have been discontinued, but any chance I can get something similar to these? Thanks for the help.

I think all the newer wallabees are made in China. I have a couple pairs of vintage ones that are made in Ireland but the soles are rock hard.

Padmore and Barnes no longer makes Wallies. Your only chance is to troll ebay or the Marketplace to find a pair. Good luck
