I first purchased Church shoes in the 1970's
When I first purchased Church shoes in the early 1970's in London, I did not know how good they were but after wearing them for a year I bought more and more until at one point I had more than twenty pair. I would send them back to the factory to resole and heel and they would come back like new. Rarely did I throw a pair away. About ten years ago, I noticed that the quality was going down so I quit buying them, but since I already had many pair, I did not care. But recently, I sent a pair back to Chicago to forward to the factory for resoling and heels. Well, after two months they told me my shoes could not be repaired because they were built the old way. I told them to throw them out and I will make do with the dozen pair I own. What a shame the new owners have lowered the quality and not the price.
