We put a booth in the shop for a weekend. Four frames, a shoe in most of them, nobody standing still.

Two minutes a week and three tools. The routine that keeps full-grain leather creasing instead of cracking.

Plain court shoes all look alike from a distance. The differences that matter are easy to check once you know the questions to ask.

Four shapes at one price. Which to buy first, which to buy second, and what each one is really for.

Six colors, one shoe. Start with the trousers you actually wear, not the swatch that looks best on its own.

Why we make one court shoe instead of a new one every season, and what making it properly actually means.
