Barker shoes A hundred years and still going strong

Regarded as one of the world's finest manufacturers of shoes, Barker has created a niche position for itself – not only in England where it started its operations, but also globally. There is a growing demand for Barker shoes from a worldwide clientèle and the company is exporting a growing number of pairs internationally to cater to the same. The company started its operations from Northamptonshire in England – one amongst the 12 reputed shoemakers to be based in that particular region. Other shoe manufacturers that started from Northamptonshire are Loakes and Grenson shoes. The Barker shoes are high on quality and one can look at the history of the brand and its philosophy to get a better understanding of this phenomenal growth of the company.

It all started when Arthur Baker, a skilled boot maker, hired craftsmen from adjoining villages in Northamptonshire and started the production of peg-sole boots. This modest beginning of the company can be traced back to the 1880s. With time, the company bagged a contract to supply boots for the British Army during the First World War. The first half of the 20th century saw the popularity of the brand growing and in the year 1947, the company began manufacturing its first line of womens shoes from a new factory.

The next big change came about in the 1950 when a dedicated sales unit was established to supply directly to the retailers. The company moved ahead with the objective of creating stylish brogue shoes and oxford shoes, which were the traditional shoe styles till that time. Even today, the design of the Barker shoes follows this philosophy. The Barker shoes are manufactured by giving a contemporary twist to the traditional designs. As a natural corollary to this trend, the shoe collections from this brand offer a perfect mix of traditional designs and contemporary takes on the same. However, while giving the best to the customers, the company takes special care not to lose sights on the methods and quality of traditional English shoe making.

Over 200,000 pairs of Barker shoes are now produced annually. As of now, the company works from some of the most innovative shoe production facilities in the world. And where does one get hold of these shoes ? One can find these shoes with select shops and some select online shoe stores.

There are some amazing designs and styles in Barker shoes to choose from. For women, one can find the popular style slip on boots as well as ladies shoes with a firm small heel. For men, there are new styles from the Barker professional collection and the Barker Heritage collection. In all these different types of footwear, there is one point that runs common. The high standards in quality and craftsmanship associated with the brand name Barker have been maintained and corroborated. High quality leather is being used in the production of all these different styles and so the consumers can expect the best when they buying Barker.

Now, one can buy Barker shoes as well as other reputed brands such as Loakes shoes, Merrell shoes, and Rohde shoes from online stores. There are some reputed online providers of footwear which are making branded shoes more accessible to a wider client base.
