BOLDLY REIMAGINING ENGLISH SHOEMAKING
ABOUT US
1812 IS NOT DEFINED BY SCALE BUT BY SPIRIT. WE ARE AMONG THE WORLD’S SMALLEST HOUSES YET WE CARRY AN AMBITION TO ALTER THE COURSE OF ENGLISH SHOEMAKING.
THIS IS A PLACE WHERE THE ORDINARY IS LEFT BEHIND AND IMAGINATION DEFINES THE FUTURE.
LUXURY HERE IS NOT LOUD; IT IS QUIET, RARE, AND DEEPLY INTENTIONAL.
ORIGIN
THERE IS REVERENCE FOR THE PAST. In the 19th Century our ancestors crafted bespoke luxury shoes in a small shop in the heart of English shoemaking.
1812 EXISTS IN DIALOGUE WITH THOSE WHO CAME BEFORE: THE LEATHER MERCHANTS AND CORDWAINERS WHOSE HANDS SHAPED OUR TRADITIONS.
Today, through 1812 we proudly continue this tradition by hand crafting unique designs just a few miles from the original workshop.
