Best Foot Forward with Alden, the most trusted shoe-makers from the US

Luxury shoe store Tassels has recently played host to the exclusive Alden Trunk Show 2018 in Hong Kong. Founded in 1884 by Charles H Alden, Alden is a family-owned business that hand-makes shoes in Massachusetts for four generations now.

The company is known for its innovation in shoe technology, from producing Goodyear welted men’s traditional shoes to designing orthopaedic shoes that allow proper fitting and help in correcting feet problems. It is Alden’s thorough research and development that makes it a leader in specialised shoes as well as in traditional footwear.

We spoke to Steve Reinhart from Alden on what makes Alden the indispensable shoe brand for gentlemen. Check out the full video.

Shoetime: British shoemaker, Edward Green, hosts trunk show at Tassels showroom

Nothing completes a gentleman’s attire like a pair of good shoes. And when it comes to investing in high-quality leather shoes, Tassels and Edward Green, two of England’s most prestigious and historical shoe brands, are anyone’s safest bets.

So when the two iconic brands came together to host the Edward Green Trunk Show at the Tassels showroom at Landmark recently, high footfalls were inevitable.

Fredrik Blindheim of Edward Green specially flew in from the brand’s UK headquarters to give guests a sneak preview of what to expect next season, and also advised those looking for a pair of bespoke Edward Green shoes.

Dating back to the 1890s, Edward Green is known for finest-quality leather and hand stitches (where necessary). Neither too bulky nor too slick, the brand’s shoes are ideal for someone who wants the best combination of comfort and sophistication.
