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

[Fred G. Unn]

Any idea on who makes these Paul Stuart shoes that are currently on clearance for $199?

Made in England, they look an awful lot like Sanders to me, which is a pretty decent deal for $199. Has anyone actually seen them or the markings inside?

100% Sanders, essentially an Archie model but on Stet last

Hey All,

I am trying to figure out the maker on these Alan McAfee made in England shoes. The handwriting on the inside, though faded, looks like Church's to me. That said, I have never seen the nail pattern on the heels before. Any help would be appreciated.

the ones I've seen have all been Church's but if thats the original heel, its different than mine. These pics are from a pair I had in Feb. This heel and the markings on the sole are more of what I think of as a typical example of Churchs

Thanks @jebarne. The heel is quite strange. In my searching around, I found the below-linked SF post. The post provides direction on who to contact for information about Alan McAfee shoes. I'll pursue contacting the people suggested and report back. http://www.styleforum.net/t/35542/info-on-pre-churchs-mcafee-shoes#post_511902

Faconnable Made in Italy. Who is the maker? Caruso?

I have not checked in awhile so I could be wrong, but I still think that this is one that remains unclear who the maker is. I also have one with this label listed so it'd be great if someone figured it out recently.

Another pair of shoes I am trying to determine the maker of. They have been resoled and reheeled. Further, the sole stamps have been worn out. The handwriting on the inside is also pretty faded. To me, the handwriting looks similar to Church's. If anyone has any insights, please let me know.

Another pair of shoes--I'm working through my back stock. Charles Tyrwhitt Legend model. Made by Loake, correct?

Anybody recognize this one? Found on a house brand Magee Donnegal Twist SC with really nice hand finished details. Gun Check.

Hey everyone, recently bought these Paul Stuart monks, would love to know the maker. Thank you.

Scanned the entire thread, saw @SpooPoker ask once a very very long time ago and he didn't get a response. Can anyone please ID this for me. It would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Its off a Jack Taylor of Beverly Hills blazer, raw silk, extremely high quality work, the Made In Italy looks familiar but the as far as the tag goes, I am at a loss.
