With a heritage that stretches back to 19th century New England, Bostonian is an iconic men’s footwear brand that has defined American style for generations. As part of its new line for the fall and winter of 2018, the company is celebrating the nation that supports it with its flagship Made in the USA Collection.
When it comes to shoe lasts (the cast form around which a shoe is molded), Bostonian’s No.16 is a classic that has stood the test of time for more than half a century. This last serves as the foundation for each shoe in the Made in the USA Collection, creating a heritage shape that harkens back to America’s rich shoemaking history.
Building upon the form of the No.16 last, Bostonian employed domestic leathers, Goodyear welts, and stacked soles to create distinctive shoes that are elegant, comfortable, weatherproof, and highly flexible. The Made in the USA Collection is handcrafted in New York City.
