Sanders & Sanders Ltd was established in 1873 by the Brothers William and Thomas Sanders in Rushden, Northamptonshire. Although the start was with only 5 craftsmen, thanks to the evolution of Goodyear-welted manufacturing and the contract with British Army in 1910's, their shoe business has steadily expanded until now. Sanders & Sanders Ltd is still under family management of their 5th generation, and known as well-established shoemaker with clients worldwide.

With the skill of traditional goodyear-welting handed down from the old craftsmen and well selected natural materials, Sanders are able to maintain the quality of the shoes to this day, being awarded the ISO 9001 quality assurance certification, which is rarely given for shoemakers in the UK.

Through years of supplying shoes and boots to MOD, police and military in other countries, Sanders have established the unique management systems leading Sanders to quantity but also quality production in an efficient way.
Thanks to this, Sanders can highly save its production cost compared to other shoemakers and so can offer traditional “Made in England” shoes of excellent cost performance.
