The story of John Lobb begins with a journey: a trip from Cornwall to London, walked entirely on foot, by the eponymous founder. He would go on to be the bootmaker to the Prince of Wales and open his first boutique on Regent Street in 1866.
Now, 150 years on, the John Lobb journey continues with the opening of a relocated New York store, calling 700 Madison Avenue its latest home (previously, it was just down the same street). The New York flagship echoes the effortlessly chic hallmarks of the shoemaker and continues the expansion of its new store concept, which has already transformed outposts in Paris and Beverly Hills.
