Gaziano Girling 39 Savile Row, London W1S 3QF

"Was my first time in London and I can’t miss a trip to Gaziano Girling! Loving my new pair of black Churchill oxford. Will be back for another pair when i return."

"Exquisite customer attention and the best hand-made shoes you can get. The experience of shopping in their Savile Row location was simply perfect from start to finish. Indeed high on the price range, but the quality, comfort, fit, and for-a-lifetime shoes are indeed worth it."

"My experience of G&G has always been exceptional and I would recommend this brand to anyone looking for the finest shoes that you can buy. From my first meeting with Simon to working with his colleague Jason I've always been treated with the utmost professionalism, respect and care. I recently took delivery of my third pair of shoes which have now slotted in nicely to the collection. The best thing about the G&G product is that the shoes never rub or cause pain. They also stand the test of time and are well worth the price tag. Keep up the good work chaps - I look forward to seeing you again!"

"Certainly one of the best shoe makers in the world. I currently have a collection of eight pairs of G&G in a range of colours from vintage rioja, chestnut, cherry, black, vintage oak, midnight blue and mole suede. Quality of the shoes are fantastic; an absolute joy to wear and maintain (they take on polish very well). The sales people in the shop are very friendly and offer a lot of advice about shoes. Even happy to chat about all things sartorial too. I have also taken in shoes back to the store to be resoled and refurbished to come back 'as new' (impressive service). Beautiful shop and good to see the bespoke models on permanent display."

"One of the finest shoe makers but come at a very expensive price point. Gaziano & Girling is a unique shoe company. Founded in 2006 by Tony Gaziano & Dean Girling, it has become the most innovative and versatile shoemaker in England, combining handcrafting and manufacturing skills to put itself at the top of both the bespoke and benchmade industries. Tony and Dean worked for a variety of bespoke makers, designers and Northampton manufacturers before coming together to launch Gaziano & Girling. Their aim was to bring a new look and quality standard to a sometimes somnolent industry, with fresh designs in bespoke and unprecedented handwork in their benchmade shoes. The result is beautifully made footwear that suits men both young and old, conservative and contemporary. Traditional English models are updated with touches of continental flair, in the last, a shaped waist and design elements that together raise a functional shoe into a work of art."
