I visited Tricker's as part of
#mystjamesknowing that It was an inevitability that
I would be desperate to save up for a
pair of their shoes the moment I caught
a whiff of one of their leather brogues.
Of course that happened, but I hadn't
anticipated how welcoming Eamon
and Clive in the shop would be,
making it almost impossible to leave.
Tricker's was established in 1829 and
have been making shoes in
Northampton in the UK ever since. Not
only is there evident pride in the shoes
themselves but also in the shop which
has original fittings from 1939;
cupboards I can only wish I possessed
to keep a vast collection of handmade
customised or bespoke brogues...what
can I say; I LOVED this shop and the 2
men in the shop!
