A well-crafted, Goodyear-welted shoe is like no other. Each pair of Cobbler Union shoes takes several weeks to make; over 70 components and more than 200 different operations. By the time our shoes are packed for shipping, some 25 artisans will have touched each shoe leaving their personal and indelible mark on them.
We believe that the shoemaking craft is truly extraordinary and we have made it our mission to contribute to its preservation and promotion. For too long, large retailers and luxury brands alike have misguided consumers; lowering quality and inflating prices along the way. We started Cobbler Union to give true shoe aficionados an honest and attainable alternative.

In 2014, we embarked on an exciting journey to bring "bespoke-inspired" luxury shoes to men around the world. Before launching Cobbler Union, we spent three years at the pinnacle of the shoemaking craft - leading the expansion of a bespoke shoemaking studio in Barcelona that sold $4,000 shoes to a distinguished clientele.
We launched the Union Market in 2016 in order to promote unique luxury shoe care products and premium accessories we use and wear ourselves. The beauty of these products is that they are truly special, rare and difficult to find, especially in the U.S. From Neapolitan scarves, to Danish shoe horns, this holiday season, we invite you to travel to Europe to discover what real craftsmanship feels like.
We want to make the process of buying shoes online as easy as possible for you. Here, you'll find important information about our lasts as well as guidance on how to choose your shoe size most accurately. Please take a moment to carefully review this information. We literally spent one full year designing, testing and adjusting our lasts before choosing the lucky seven that made the cut for our inaugural collection.

Cobbler Union is located on the 2nd floor in Ponce City Market. They sell high quality items from shoes to belts to scarves to even beard oil. They have a great selection and unique styles of formal and and causal footwear. We've bought 2 shoes within the last 2 months and cannot get over the high quality leather on the shoes. The downside is that the shoes are extremely painful during the break-in period. The staff is absolutely incredible, helpful, and very knowledgeable. They were also very patient with us and let my husband try on multiple shoes on our first visit. If you wanna show off and

Never been to the store but the shoes that I've purchased online are fantastic. No more Allen Edmonds for me. Cobbler Union. The new American shoe. (Made in Spain) They are an elegant shoe with a 270? Goodyear welt with a stained closed stiched sole with a narrow waist and fiddle back that should make Carmina nervous. Will definitely be buying again. Of course the full grain upper goes without saying.

I visited Cobbler Union on July 18th for the first time. I really was interested in their drivers because that has always been my go to style of shoe. I noticed the Henry’s online and I really wanted to look at those and I was very skeptical because I wasn’t used to this type of shoe style, but I put them on my feet and they fit like a glove, very snug and comfortable and after wearing these shoes everyday for the past week they are my favorite shoe from look to quality and comfort. Thomas was very friendly and knowledgeable and really made the experience. I will definitely buy more shoes from

I went today for an "in store one-on-one" shoe fitting and worked with Thomas. The images on their website don't do justice to their product. It's difficult to capture the quality of the leather and the silhouette of the fiddleback waist - the shoes were gorgeous. I settled on the wholecut museum oxblood but struggled painfully. I literally could have purchased 3 additional pairs.

I'm super happy I gave Cobbler Union a try! I was initially a bit worried about ordering online without trying shoes on in person. Nonetheless, I ordered myself a pair of the Winchester boots. They arrived fairly quickly and were absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately, they were the wrong size. I worried about the exchange process because I had an upcoming trip. Cobbler Union was super accommodating and expedited the replacement pair, a size up, so that I could get them before my trip. I actually needed one more size up beyond that and Cobbler Union was again, incredibly friendly and accommodating

I found Cobbler Union through the Parisian Gentleman channel in which he highly recommended them .
Needless to say 2 pair later I am a fan and couldn't be more happier with my
choice and the shoes . The shoes fit and feel comfortable and they look gorgeous too The quality is top notch and the customer service is excellent! I purchased 2 pair of oxfords Richard model that my collection was in need of . With one pair I had an issue and Tobi in customer service along with Mr Gonzalez the VP came through and made it right .
I highly recommend Cobbler Union if your looking for business, classy or

Cobbler Union is one of the very, very few brands offering shoes of such high quality at this price. The quality of the leather, craftsmanship, design, and attention to detail far exceeds nearly all others you can find for this price, and it is not far from some of the highest end shoes costing hundreds more. I'm an especially big fan of their boots, many of which can be both dressed up or down--not an easy feat to accomplish. I have also had no trouble breaking in the shoes, which from day one were much more comfortable and less stiff than many other leather shoes I've tried. Perhaps best of all

Cobbler Union is without a doubt my favorite shoe company before you get to disgusting high end prices. I currently own 4 pairs and hope to pick up a few more to round out my shoe collection. The quality of these shoes is absolutely incredible and the styling is really something to admire. You have to make it into their store to lay eyes on these beautiful shoes. The sales staff has been great every single time I see them. Even when I'm not buying a thing and pester them with a million questions, they are as pleasant as ever. I get a warm greeting with hugs and all every time i come by. Couldn
