My unique need for beginning a shoe firm was finally for one fundamental cause: ‘to see males sporting higher footwear.’ It was a easy thought. I noticed dangerous footwear being offered all over the place within the US. And I noticed males shopping for these dangerous footwear. I wished to alter that. I wished to coach males on good footwear after which be capable to supply it to them. And that was the hunt that I set off for, some 15 years in the past. And right here I’m at present, 7 years into my shoe model, J.FitzPatrick Footwear, and now the launch of our new ‘JF Line’
For these of you curious, permit me to elucidate the reasoning behind the JF Line.
By the 7 years of getting our J.FitzPatrick line, I seen one thing about our clients, how they purchased, what they purchased and what they got here to us for. Little did I understand that I had carved out a distinct segment and popularity for being the model that brings you ‘button boots, two-tone footwear, saddle oxfords, spectators, footwear with denim, blue, inexperienced and burgundy footwear’ and the like. However what individuals didn’t look to get from my model had been the tremendous classics.
I seen this once I launched chukka boots and they didn’t have the promote by that I felt they need to have had, as an excellent versatile and basic beater-type boot that the majority regular males personal no less than one pair of. And it made me ask myself why? And it dawned on me that for sure basic footwear, you can’t reinvent them. You can not actually make a chukka boot so a lot better or completely different. A chukka boot is a chukka boot. So why would somebody purchase one from me for round $450 after they can get one cheaper at manufacturers like Herring or Meermin? They wouldn’t and that’s what I seen. And it made sense, too.
On prime of that, I do know that individuals wished to assist our model and my journey however possibly didn’t wish to get a pair of button boots to begin their sartorial journey into positive footwear and/or didn’t have a $400-$500 finances. So, I wished to have the ability to attain these people who probably felt ignored, as I by no means meant to make tremendous basic footwear for the J.FitzPatrick line, exterior of 1 or two fashions. Subsequently, the thought of the JF line was born. The concept to supply basic fashions at entry-level pricing, nonetheless in tune with the thought of getting a small JF twist, and good worth for cash however not going so daring and refined because the J.FitzPatrick line does.
We hope that you simply take pleasure in this line as a lot as we do and discover one thing that’s best for you. Please learn extra under for the technical particulars of the footwear.
