== History ==
After opening their first shop, off London’s Piccadilly, Matthew and Rebecca Wildsmith quickly gained a loyal following and began crafting bespoke shoes for many Royals and luminaries. Subsequently a ready-to-wear collection was introduced, which became equally popular.
The company moved to London’s Duke Street in 1948 and then on to Princes Arcade in the late 1960s. It was around this time that the company began to gain a wider international reputation as Matthew and Rebecca’s great-grandson, John Wildsmith, took the brand around the world. He gathered together a team of tailors and shirt makers and they travelled across various countries delivering a service that became known as The Three S’s – suits, shirts and shoes.
Manufacture of the Wildsmith ready to wear collections went to (Northampton ) in the 1960s, an area that has long been famous for its shoe making abilities. Machinery at the Northampton factory was created by Charles Goodyear, producing shoes at a faster rate and creating lighter work than was previously possible. This machinery is said to have inspired the name of the high quality Goodyear Welt.
